AN elderly driver who was killed in a head-on collision earlier this week has now been formally identified.

Margaret Dickinson, who was 79, died when her red Citroen Saxo was in collision with a grey VW Polo on the A64 near Rillington on Monday. She lived in the village.

The driver of the Polo, a 22-year-old woman from York, was treated at hospital in Scarborough but was released the following day.
