The mother of a teenager who was killed in a motorbike crash has paid tribute to her “loving, caring, funny and genuine” son
Kaine Darby, 17, was travelling on the motorbike with another boy, 16, when they collided with a car on Lower Broughton Road, Salford, on 22 May.
The pair were taken to hospital but later died from their injuries.
Kaine’s mother Danielle Hughes said: “I will miss you so much, and so will your two little sisters who love you and looked up to you.”
She told her son in the tribute he had been “doing so well considering everything you have been through over the last few years”.
Ms Hughes said she did not condone behaviour that had taken place at the scene after the crash including vandalism and “motorbikes riding around”.
She said: “This is not what Kaine would have wanted. We want peace and to remember Kaine calmly, surrounded by his loved ones.
“This has shocked the whole family. It was a tragic accident that should never have happened that I don’t want to tarnish Kaine’s legacy.”
Police said the driver of the car stayed at the scene to help officers and no arrests had been made.
