The family of a teenager from North Yorkshire have paid tribute to him as “the most kind, loving and ambitious young man you could ever have met”.
Alfie Miller, from the Richmond area, died at about 7.30pm on Monday, September 28, after the blue Land Rover SVR he was travelling in hit the rear of a tractor towing a trailer loaded with hay bales on the A163 near Barlby, Selby, by the Whitemoor Lane junction.
The 19-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene.
In a tribute today (Friday, October 2), his family said: "In loving memory of the world's greatest Alfie Miller, our beautiful son, Only 19. He was the most kind and loving and ambitious young man you could have ever met.

"He had dreams and plans, and we know he would have accomplished them all. Just look at what he had achieved already.
"Alfie was an extraordinary young man. He was an incredible businessman, with the ambition, determination and drive that made him stand out from a very young age.
"But our Alfie was so much more than his achievements. He was our whole world, and our hearts are so broken. He was the most charismatic, charming young man. Any room he entered, he would light it up. You couldn’t help but love him. "
His family added: "He was larger than life, and he always had a smile on his face. Our son was one in a million, and there will never be another like him.
"We will forever wonder what more he would have achieved, because we know there was so much more to come. The unbelievable amount of love shown following his death shows just how many lives our Alfie touched. We have had hundreds of photos, videos and messages sent to us by everyone who loved him.
