Overview

• The coroner concluded on June 3 that Stephen Chamberlain died in a road traffic collision deemed unavoidable.
• Chamberlain was struck by a Vauxhall car on August 17, 2024 after cresting a humpback bridge on the A1123 near Stretham and died three days later from head injuries.
• A police forensic collision investigator testified that limited visibility at the bridge made the collision unavoidable despite the driver’s emergency braking.
• The coroner will request detailed safety information from Cambridgeshire County Council to assess potential measures around the bridge.
• Chamberlain, who was cleared of US fraud charges alongside Mike Lynch in June 2024, took up running for mental health and his family has vowed to seek further answers, including a possible CPS referral.
