Date set for Glasgow bin lorry crash inquiry


It was announced last month the driver of the vehicle which lost control in the city centre three days before Christmas would not face charges. A fatal accident inquiry into the causes of the tragedy was announced after the Crown Office said careful consideration of the police report found there was no evidence to support any prosecutions.
The inquiry will be held at Glasgow Sheriff Court on 22 July.
