The four vehicles involved were a Dutch-registered Mercedes lorry, a Volkswagen Golf, a Scania horsebox and a Volvo FH12.

How very sad.
Yesterday I followed an Estonian 40 ton lorry along our narrow lanes for over 6 miles. he didn't go more than 15 mph but almost wiped out ten or more vehicles, as he insisted in staying a good six feet out from the hedge and well over the white line on blind corners. There was no chance of passing him as he never left enough room for a car to get past, all I could do was wince in horror every time he approached a blind bend and stay well back for fear of an accident.
His sat nav would have told him the B212 was a decent road, but in reality it's single track in many places and a magnet for accidents.
With drivers like him, no wonder people get killed.
My sympathy to those involved, having lost a brother to a drunk lorry driver, I know a little about the grief and shock their families' will be going through.
