Simon Richardson, 34, faces charges of murder, manslaughter, dangerous driving, failing to stop and driving without insurance after a collision in Altrincham, Cheshire, at around 6.10pm on Monday.
Headteacher Michael Mullins, 56, from nearby Northwich, was treated at the scene but died shortly after.
Richardson, of no fixed abode, was remanded in custody and is due to appear at Manchester and Salford Magistrates Court later today.
Officers have since made an appeal for CCTV, dashcam or doorbell footage from around the area at the time of the incident.
Mr Mullins, headteacher of Stretford Grammar School, was described as a "loving dad, husband, brother-in-law, 'Diddy', uncle, son-in-law" by his family.

They said he "passed away after being knocked off his bike."
The tribute went on: "He was devoted to his family, and our lives will never be the same.
"Our dad gave us fantastic memories growing up including a trip getting lost at night around Washington DC but it was in his role as a grandad where he truly excelled.
"Our love and memories of Michael will know no limits.
"We will love him forever, to Saturn and beyond."
Gannon Ken Van Dyke used his access to classified information to make money on prediction platform Polymarket, which allows users to make bets on real-life global events.
He allegedly bet $33,034 (£24,538) on the Venezuelan leader being captured by US forces in January, the federal prosecutor's office in New York said.
Maduro was brought to New York to face drug trafficking charges and has pleaded not guilty.
Van Dyke, an active duty soldier stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, made more than $409,000 (£354,817) as a result, an unsealed indictment alleges.
The US Department of Justice said Van Dyke made 13 bets between 27 December 2025 and 26 January 2026, the last being hours before the overnight capture.
Van Dyke, 38, has been charged with unlawful use of confidential government information for personal gain, theft of nonpublic government information, commodities fraud, wire fraud, and making an unlawful monetary transaction, according to the indictment.
He could face years in prison.
Authorities said he "participated in the planning and execution of the US military operation to capture Nicolas Maduro".
An image uploaded to his Google account showed him in military fatigues and carrying a rifle on the USS Iwo Jima, just hours after Maduro was transported to the United States on the ship, prosecutors alleged in the indictment.
Three days after Maduro's capture, Van Dyke asked Polymarket to delete his account, "falsely claiming that he had lost access to the email address", federal authorities said.
After collecting his winnings, Van Dyke sent most of the money to a foreign cryptocurrency vault, the Justice Department said.
The Commodity Futures Trading Commission, which regulates Polymarket, said it was also hitting Van Dyke with civil charges.
"Insider trading has no place on Polymarket," the company added in a post on X.
"Today's arrest is proof the system works."
Asked about the incident, US President Donald Trump said he does not like the concept of betting.
He said it was "like Pete Rose betting on his own team", in reference to the Major League Baseball coach who was banned for wagering money on sides he was managing.
"The whole world, unfortunately, has become somewhat of a casino," Trump added when asked more generally about betting markets and bets placed on major geopolitical events.
"I'm not happy with any of that stuff," Trump continued.

FBI Director Kash Patel said the indictment "makes clear no one is above the law, and this FBI will do whatever it takes to defend the homeland and safeguard our nation's secrets."
Kofi Offeh, who crowned himself King Atehene, set up the self-proclaimed Kingdom of Kubala with Jean Gasho - who called herself Queen Nandi.
The couple were later joined by "handmaiden" Kaura Taylor, who went by the name Asnat.
Local media reported Mr Offeh's arrival at Ghana's Accra International Airport on 22 April.
The group made headlines across the globe when they set up a camp in woodland near Jedburgh in May last year, claiming to be reoccupying land that was stolen from their ancestors 400 years ago.
The group's social media accounts, which included videos of them dancing, singing and chanting, garnered tens of thousands of followers on TikTok and Facebook.
In September, the owners of the land took legal action to evict them, on the basis they had "no right of title" to it.
A sheriff issued a warrant for their removal and they were eventually evicted - only to set up a new camp in a neighbouring plot of land owned by Scottish Borders Council.

Following further legal action, the group was eventually removed from this second camp in October when sheriff officers, police and officers from Immigration Enforcement swooped in on the site.
At the time the Home Office confirmed a Ghanaian man and an American woman had been arrested on suspicion of immigration offences.
More details of the alleged offences emerged at a court hearing in California on Thursday, just days after the 21-year-old, whose real name is David Burke, pleaded not guilty to all the charges against him.
The body of Celeste Rivas Hernandez, 14, from Lake Elsinore in California, was found in two bags in his Tesla that had been towed from the Hollywood Hills while he was on tour.
On Thursday, prosecutors outlined how the investigation was progressing, stating that a "significant amount" of child sex abuse images were found on his iCloud storage account.
"Today it's been exactly one year since the death of Celeste... We're eager to set this case for trial," deputy district attorney Beth Silverman told the court.
She said the evidence includes the contents of his phone and iCloud accounts, items seized from many search warrants and a huge amount of forensic material.
The prosecution has claimed Burke had been sexually abusing Celeste Rivas Hernandez for at least a year, starting when she was 13.
It is alleged that he killed her on or around 23 April 2025, after she threatened to report the relationship, and dismembered her body about two weeks later.
Burke arrived in a Los Angeles courtroom handcuffed and wearing orange jail clothes. The judge set out a four-to-five-day preliminary evidentiary hearing for 1 May.
He pleaded not guilty on Monday to first-degree murder, lewd and lascivious acts with a person under 14 and mutilating a dead body.
On Wednesday, the LA County medical examiner determined that the girl died from two penetrating wounds to her upper body, but investigators did not determine how she was injured.

Her parents, Jesus Rivas and Mercedes Martinez, made their first public statement in the case on Tuesday, calling their daughter "a beautiful, strong girl who loved to sing and dance".
"All we want is justice for Celeste," they added.
In a rare move, the singer is exercising his right in California to have the preliminary evidence hearing within 10 court days of his initial court appearance, when the charges were disclosed.
The prosecution accepted it was working on an incredibly tight timeline for the hearing, which usually comes many months after defendants are arrested and charged.
Sky News' US partner NBC News reported that prosecutors are seeking three enhancements to the singer's murder charge: lying in wait, financial gain and murdering a witness to an investigation.

Fossils of its jaw structure indicate it ranged from seven to 19m long and lived during the Cretaceous period, about 86 to 72 million years ago.
The species - Nanaimoteuthis haggarti - was an apex predator and is one of the largest invertebrates ever recorded.
Researchers compared the creature to the mythical kraken, a legendary, colossal sea monster from Scandinavian folklore.
"These animals were remarkable. With their large bodies, long arms, powerful jaws and advanced behaviour, they represent what could be described as a real Cretaceous kraken", said palaeontologist and lead author Yasuhiro Iba of Hokkaido University.
The body of a modern giant squid can reach 12m in length, but Nanaimoteuthis haggarti would have been even bigger.
Mr Iba said his work showed "giant invertebrates, namely octopuses, also functioned as apex predators in the Cretaceous sea".
"These giant octopuses likely occupied the same ecological tier and may have competed with marine reptiles and sharks within the same ecosystem," he added.

The fossils studied came from Japan and Vancouver Island in Canada and showed intense wear on the creature's "beak", the only rigid part of an octopus's body.
This indicates repeated crushing of hard structures such as bones and shells, suggesting it hunted large fish, shelled tentacled creatures, clams and other large prey.
Seafarers can rest easy, however, Nanaimoteuthis haggarti died out in the extinction event that wiped out the dinosaurs about 66 million years ago.
The full study is published today in the journal Science.
