Jacob Crawshaw, 19, was travelling with a work colleague on the A14 when he died.
Neve Gordon-FarleighThe family of a teenager who died in a crash have spoken of their grief, saying their "lives were turned upside down in an instant".
His father, James, said "I fell to my knees as my world crumbled before me in disbelief and immense pain" after he heard news of his son's death. Northamptonshire Police said Hicks was driving on the westbound carriageway of the A14 between junctions 11 and 10 on 17 October 2021 when the crash occurred.
"Just 10 minutes later, Hicks failed to see the lorry he was approaching, take any safe avoiding action or even to brake before he hit it, and Jacob paid for this with his life," said Det Sgt Janette Maitland.
