A woman will be jailed after she admitted to killing two people in a car crash.
Jessica Higgs, 20, pleaded guilty to two charges of causing death by careless driving while under the influence of drugs, Taunton Crown Court heard.
Driver Tony Mist and passenger Thelma Huse, both 69, died on the A303 in West Camel, Somerset, in May last year.
Higgs was driving a Mercedes van when she crashed into Mr Mist’s car.
Mr Mist died at the scene, while Thelma Huse was taken to hospital but died from her injuries a short time later.
The hearing for her sentencing will be held on August 2, Judge Richard Shepherd confirmed.
He said: ‘You have pleaded guilty to very serious offences and the court is only able to deal with your case in one way and that’s prison.
‘But I want to know a lot more about you. I want to know about your background, I want to know about the impact of any sentence of imprisonment upon you and therefore I am going to order pre-sentence reports.’
