Parents’ tribute to motorcyclist killed in crash

James Haigh, 32, was riding his Suzuki motorbike on Huddersfield Road, Dewsbury, when he was in a collision with a car.

He was on his way to Richard Alan Engineering in Shaw Cross where he worked as a welder – a profession he excelled in from an early age, following in his father David’s footsteps.
