Sounds like it might have been a Wisemans lorry…reported to have been ‘delivering milk’.

Looks very similar to the Moran logo tbh, but theirs is usually bottom corner… They do Arla work - a lot of milk.

I was working for them until a short time ago, hope it’s nobody I know.

RIP drive, whoever you are.

RIP drive. :frowning:

Poor bugger.

I passed the scene at about 22.30 last night just before they closed both carriageways. Thought the injury reports would have been far worse based upon how far the rig had gone into the building.

RIP Drive

Could it be one of those cases where he had already died which caused the crash?
Either way, sad news at this time of year.

Poor sod, maybe only out to make a few extra quid for his family at Christmas time.

Job aint worth dying for,… RIP mate,and condolences to your family.
Roy.

Sad, sad news - just up the road from me about a mile or so.

RIP drive! :frowning:

I live round the corner, few people I know were in there at the time. Luckily it was very quiet in there as it was boxing day. It’s usually packed in there.

I just can’t see how anyone could lose control there, doesn’t seem right. Maybe he had a heart attack or something.

Someone has told me it was a heart attack but that’s unconfirmed as yet! :frowning:
