What happened
Horticultural Distribution Ltd, a firm based near Glasgow, had its operating license for five vehicles and 10 trailers revoked by the Traffic Commissioner after roadside inspections near Carlisle uncovered serious vehicle defects. The decision followed an incident where a lorry driven by Michael James Adam was found to have a faulty speed limiter and had recorded 90 overspeed warnings in 28 days.
