A woman has died after she was hit by a car being reversed by her 17-year-old daughter who was a learner driver.

Susan Duke, 41, suffered serious head injuries when she was struck in the car park of Cuxton Social Club near Rochester, in Kent, on Monday.

Ms Duke was taken to a London hospital by air ambulance but died on Wednesday, Kent Police said.

It is thought Ms Duke may have been teaching her daughter, Lauren, to drive when the accident happened.
'Always cheerful'

Cuxton resident Ken Barton paid tribute to Ms Duke, who worked at Cuxton Social Club bar.

He said: "She was always cheerful, always very pleasant, just a very nice person."

Another resident, Eve Chambers, who knows the family, said: "I feel so sorry for the young girl, I really do.

"She's got that for the rest of her life. It's tragic."

Kent police said no arrests had been made in relation to the incident.

Appealing for witnesses, PC Chris Oliver-Jones, said: "This is a tragic incident at a busy time of day so hopefully there would have been a lot of people around."

He said family liaison officers were working closely with the family to provide support.

    Just imagine: we pull in reverse gear all the time...

    everytime for the rest of her life when she pulls into reverse, her first time she killed someone close..

    If she manages to even pick up the wheel...

    Luckily she wasn't taking her driving test - that would have gotten her a major fault!

    Therapy's counterproductive. Our should I say, it'll reverse her recovery.

    This ftw. She would definitely not have gotten her license. What is killing someone like 4 points?

    LMAO

    But no seriously its not just the driving. What if she is going reverse cowgirl on some dude and then has a flashback, spazzes, and rips his dick off. We should be more scared of that then anything.

    On topic: Maybe if someone uses a little Reverse psychology on her they can easy help her get over it.

    What was he hoping for, a 10 pin strike?
