Haulage firm investigates later than film posted on YouTube shows vehicle with Renault Clio trapped beneath its bumper
A haulage firm today began an investigation after a video emerged that appeared to illustrate a lorry driver speeding along a motorway unaware that a car was trapped below its bumper.
The mobile phone footage shows an Arclid Transport lorry traveling in the hasty lane on the A1(M) close to Wetherby, west Yorkshire, with a blue Renault Clio trapped sideways under its bumper.
The footage, believed to have been filmed in January by passengers in a vehicle on the same highway, showed the driver of the Clio – who has not so far been identified – appearing to try to discharge the car by pressing the brakes.
A male voice can be heard inside the car from which the scene was filmed, shouting: He [the lorry driver] hasn't still seen it.
A spokesman for Cheshire-based Arclid Transport, which specialises in transporting bulk powders and grainy products throughout the UK, said an investigation had begun.
I've no idea if the video is real, the spokesman added.We're really doing an internal investigation at the moment.
A spokesman for West Yorkshire police said officers were aware of the footage but presently had no further details.
