Image captionAn HGV driver who was checking Facebook on his phone moments before he crashed into a school minibus, killing a boy and a support worker, has been jailed.
Judge Robert Altham, sitting at Preston Crown Court, said Majury had"prioritised checking his Facebook over the safety of anyone else on the road that day" and his actions had caused"untold suffering" and the loss of two"precious" people. He only noticed the minibus carrying children to Pontville School, a special needs school in Ormskirk, half a second before the impact.Prosecutors said his Mercedes Arocs lorry, heavily laden with scaffolding, had"unleashed a 19-tonne battering ram" into the back of the nine-seater school vehicle carrying pupils and staff.
Pig ignorance for a so called professional driver to act that way. Should never be allowed drive again after such blatant disregard for others and the law.
Do not use the minibus. Rather, don't hire a driver with this kind of face. Then I will be the driver. I want you to learn anthropology, which is a Chinese idea.
It’s so sad for everyone involved
Social media addiction. What a deadly distraction. Driving and Media, not a good combo!
I love how this appalling 'professional driver' was described by defence counsel as having PTSD from causing the 'accident' which was, er, no bloody accident but a reckless act. Ahhh, bless him. Fuck him. For the lives he took and injuries to others that sentence is a joke.
