Czechs criticized for putting unsafe trucks on British roads
The Czech Republic has come under criticism from the Transport Committee of the British House of Commons for putting unsafe trucks on British roads. According to a report commissioned by the committee Czechs are the worst offenders with 60 percent of Czech-registered Heavy Goods Vehicle trucks failing roadworthiness tests. Polish and Hungarian vehicles failed more than 50 percent of safety checks, while German and Italian lorries were found to have serious safety flaws in 40 percent of cases.
