German truck driver convicted over crash with tour buses
A German truck driver was convicted today of causing death through negligence when his vehicle was involved a pile-up with two British tour buses earlier this year.
He was given a two-year suspended prison sentence. A court in Kerpen, near Cologne, found that Frank Schade (aged 33) was driving his truck although he was exhausted when the accident occurred on February 11 on the A4 highway.
