A "much-loved" grandfather was killed when a concrete slab fell from a lorry load and smashed through his car windscreen, an inquest has heard.
Steven Oscroft, 60, was driving along Netherfield Lane near Thoresby Hall, Nottinghamshire, on 7 July last year when the object hit his car.
Assistant coroner Gordon Clow said Mr Oscroft died instantly after suffering "extensive traumatic head injuries".
He concluded his death was "from a rare traffic collision".
'Catastrophic'
Nottingham Coroner's Court heard the accident happened about 11:35 BST as Mr Oscroft, from Shirebrook, Derbyshire, drove his wife and two grandchildren home from a morning strawberry picking.
