A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokeswoman said: “On arrival crews discovered two cars had been in collision, both of which had suffered significant damage. There were two patients. One of whom, a woman who was the driver of one of the cars, was found to be in a critical condition.

"Fire service colleagues were already providing basic life support before ambulance staff immediately began administering advanced life support. However, despite best efforts, it sadly became apparent nothing could be done to save her, and she was declared dead at the scene.

“The second patient, a man who was the driver of the second car, was treated for potentially serious injuries and conveyed to University Hospital Coventry and Warwickshire.”
