The Guardia Civil have reported the arrest of a lorry driver who overturned his 40 ton lorry, laden with 18 tons of animal feed, on the N-344 (Almería-Valencia), within the municipality of Yecla.
The 41 year old driver, of Spanish nationality from Santa Fe (Granada) was slightly injured when he overturned his vehicle, which spread its load across the carriageway, and was treated for shock at the scene.
However, it was apparent to the traffic patrol who answered the emergency call-out, that the man had been drinking and a breath test revealed that he was in fact six times over the legal limit for professional drivers when in control of the vehicle.He will now face criminal charges and potentially the loss of his license.
