The family of a woman who died when she was hit by a police car as it was responding to an emergency have paid tribute to a "truly remarkable young woman". 

Kimberley Cameron, 27, was killed on Friday evening on the A41 in Aylesbury, when she was hit by a police vehicle that was heading to the scene of a crash in nearby Waddesdon. 

Kimberley's devastated family have paid tribute to the keen cyclist and runner. 

They said: "Kimberley was a very much loved daughter, sister, granddaughter, and niece. She was a truly remarkable, independent young woman, who, despite having Type 1 diabetes lived every day to the full and never let it define who she was.

“She was a passionate cyclist and runner who aspired to be a role model to all diabetics by pushing and challenging her physical limits daily.

 “Kimberley was always positive, full of joy and her smile lit up every room she entered. She touched many hearts and will be truly missed by her family, friends, and work colleagues. We are incredibly proud of the woman she became.

“On behalf of all of the family, we would like to offer our heartfelt thanks to all of the emergency services, doctors and members of the public who tried to save and comfort Kimberley in the moments before she passed away. It is a comfort to know that she was not alone.”
