During Operation Vertebrae, officers out to make our county’s roads safer stopped a beast of a lorry this Monday.

They found the HGV was staggering 15 tonnes overweight and running on six defective tyres. Dangerous or what?

Driver Busted and Vehicle Grounded

The driver has been officially reported for breaching the law, while the vehicle is barred and cabled up tight. It won’t move until a proper movement order is granted.
