Lorry driver jailed

I read this earlier on this evening. The drivers excuse reminded me of a friend and fellow driver who had an accident of which he couldn’t remember, I knew him well enough to believe him. In his case no one else was involved. His fellow drivers slagged him off some thing rotten, mostly behind his back. A couple of months or so later months later he was diagnosed with early stage Alzheimer’s.
I’m not saying that’s what happened here because I don’t know, but I’m not going to slag him off.
