BBC Scotland Investigates

Lies, Laws and the Bin Lorry Tragedy (2015x8)

Air date: Nov 03, 2012

The families of some of the victims of the Glasgow bin lorry tragedy break their silence and tell Jackie Bird about the devastating impact of the crash which killed six people and left more than a dozen injured. The families explain how they feel the investigation into the crash has failed them, and lay damning accusations at those in charge of the Scottish justice system. They also ask how a driver who lied about his past was able to slip unnoticed through multiple layers of bureaucracy allowing him to be in the driving seat of a 26-tonne bin lorry in December 2014.
