Thirty-six-year-old Darren Saunders, a father of three from Harrietsham, Maidstone, was killed after the accident on Saturday (March 27) outside the Cherry Tree pub on the Tonbridge Road, Maidstone.

Tributes have been laid at the scene to Mr Saunders.

One described him as a "real character who will be dearly missed by all, who never let life get him down" and finished: "Keep laughing and smiling wherever you are."
