On 22 December 2014 a bin lorry collided with pedestrians in the city centre of Glasgow, Scotland, killing six and injuring fifteen others.[1][2][3][4][5] The driver of the council-owned vehicle, Harry Clarke, said he had passed out at the wheel. A similar blackout had happened to him in the driving seat of a bus. He had not disclosed that incident on his heavy goods vehicle licence renewal application, despite such self-reporting being mandatory. Clarke was officially told he would not face further prosecution, causing protests from victims' families at the way the case had been handled.

In October 2015 it was reported that Clarke had been arrested on suspicion of driving without a licence in September 2015.[6][7]

Four years previously, two pedestrians were killed in the city when a driver experienced a 'blackout' while driving and drove into them on the pavement.
