Emmerdale fans let Nicola King burn out during Friday’s episode when she blamed Mora Dingle for the car accident that injured her daughter Angelica.
The two women were involved in a traffic accident the previous day in which Moira crashed into the side of Nicola’s car after it spun off an intersection.
In the crash, Nicola’s teenage daughter, nicknamed Angel, was knocked unconscious and rushed to hospital, where she was later revealed to have a broken femur.
Despite Moira being cleared of blame by the police, Nicola (Nicola Wheeler) went to war and confronted the rancher (Natalie J. Robb), blaming her for the crash and vowing to have her arrested.
Fans watching the dramatic scenes were quick to take to Twitter to take a beating for Nicola for her actions, saying the mother was to blame, especially since her daughter was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash.

“That’s it, Nicola put the blame on someone other than yourself. She pushed out without looking. That’s your fault, not Moira’s irate viewer.
While another yelled, “Nicola taking it out on Moira isn’t going to help! It was an accident!!’
A third tweeted: “Remember Nicola, you are as guilty as Moira. Angel wasn’t wearing a seatbelt either.’
“Funny how Nicola conveniently forgets she’s as much to blame as Moira,” a fourth fan commented.
“If Nicola keeps lashing out at people and pushing people away, she’s only making things worse. It is clear that she is struggling mentally after the accident and blames herself for what happened ‘shared a fifth’.
Another person commented, “Eh, shouldn’t her daughter have been wearing a seatbelt.”
With an additional viewer agreeing: “Moira was on the main road and Angel had no seatbelt: none of this makes sense.”
Friday’s episode also saw Nicola blame husband Jimmy King for the crash because he forgot to pick up their daughter earlier.
Response: Fans watching the dramatic scenes were quick to take to Twitter to slam Nicola for her actions, saying the mother was to blame, especially since her daughter was not wearing a seatbelt
While she failed to convince Jimmy’s cousin Tom to make a statement to the police after he reported that Farmer Moira had been up all night with a poor animal.
Nicola was seen storming into Moira’s house and berating her and her husband Cain Dingle as she promised to have Moira arrested for the crash.
Later, back at the hospital, Nicola told her husband Jimmy that she planned to use her council contacts to bring Moira to justice, prompting her husband to admit that he believes she was to blame for the crash and not her rival.
It comes after viewers were disappointed by an “over-hyped” car crash between Nicola King and Moira Barton during Thursday night’s episode.
Oh no: In the crash, Nicola’s teenage daughter, nicknamed Angel, was left unconscious and rushed to hospital, where it was later revealed she had a broken femur
Concerned: Nicola was beside himself after the shocking car accident
The accident, which did not deploy any airbags, shocked some ITV fans as Nicola’s daughter Angel was in the back seat and not wearing her seatbelt.
The schoolgirl was knocked out after the impact and Moira backed her Land Rover away from the side of Nicola’s vehicle.
The two ladies jumped out to check on Angel who was unresponsive just as vet Thomas arrived, prompting fans to joke that he’s “a doctor now.”
One wrote: ‘The vet is now a doctor’, another added: ‘Oh good, Angelika – the vet has arrived!’

Oh no! The accident, which did not deploy any airbags, shocked some ITV fans as Nicola’s daughter Angel was in the back seat and not wearing her seatbelt.
A third said: ‘Tom King, the vet treating a young animal. Nicola’s daughter.’ while another joked: “Stand aside, I’m a vet”
A fifth wrote: ‘Tom is also a doctor now. Angel is a human, not a horse. Surprised it wasn’t Caleb who turned on the spot.”
They soon realized that Angel was “bleeding from her leg” and Moira suggested they move the schoolgirl.
Nicola was furious and screamed, “Don’t you dare move her, don’t you dare touch my baby!”
