A 73-year-old from Felixstowe is due to appear in court on Tuesday to be formally charged with causing the death of an Ipswich man by careless driving.
The accused, who is to be charged when he appears before South East Suffolk Magistrates’ Court in Ipswich, has not been named by police.
At this stage he has been summonsed to court in relation to the death of Duane Cook, of King’s Way, Ipswich, who lost his life near the Levington turn-off on the A1156, the old A45 Ipswich to Felixstowe Road.
The 42-year-old Next delivery driver died on March 29 last year after a collision involving his Yamaha motorcycle and a Honda car at around 4.15pm.
Mr Cook’s death was the second family tragedy in six years. In March 2010, Mr Cook’s step-brother Karl Crisp died suddenly from an aneurysm after being taken ill at his home in Landseer Road, Ipswich.
