Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

GLAMOUR MODEL Jordan, aka Katie Reid, has been ordered to pay over /1,000 for losing control of her pink HGV on the motorway.

The 32-year old was found guilty last week of not being in control of her 75-tonne Iveco horsebox after police officers spotted her swerve across a lane on the A23 and pulled her over at Bolney, West Sussex in February.

They claimed to have seen her using a mobile phone behind the wheel, but Reid said that she was in fact spraying perfume.

"I don't remember veering, but it is quite difficult to drive. Because I'm just a typical woman driver, I was just not used to the lorry. I was a bit scared as it was on the motorway," said Reid.

As well as being lined £1,000 and ordered to pay more than £600 in costs, Reid had three points added to the seven on her licence.
