Simran was a former pupil at Beechwood School in Long Readings Lane, Britwell where she is fondly remembered.

Headteacher Kathleen Higgins said: "We were deeply shocked and saddened to hear the tragic news about Simran and we send our heartfelt condolences to her family and friends.

"Simran was a wonderful young woman. During her time at Beechwood she was a very popular and highly regarded member of our school community which is testament to her truly lovely personality and character."

It is understood Simran also studied childcare at Langley College.

Heartbroken friends have gone onto social media to express their distress over the death of a 'happy and bubbly' young woman who loved to dance.

Investigating officer PC Simon Nelson, of the Serious Collision Investigation Unit, based at Three Mile Cross, appealed for anyone who witnessed the crash or saw the car before it happened to come forward.

He said: “I would also ask any drivers with dash-cams to please review their footage in case it has captured anything relevant."
