Lorry driver left brain-damaged by falling load

SHP Article:

A delivery driver suffered brain damage when a panel saw fell and struck him in the head as he was unloading it from a lorry.

On 16 August 2007, Nicholas Holmes, 49, was delivering panel saws from Joda Freight Ltd’s depot in West Yorkshire to the Saw Centre in Glasgow. He had not loaded the vehicle himself and was not given any information about how the saws were secured inside the lorry.
