• Haulage boss Niels Christoffersen has been convicted at Carlisle Crown Court of encouraging his drivers to falsify tachograph records to hide the fact that they were breaking the hours regulations.
Christoffersen, of Green Bank, Well Road, Moffat—a director of NE Transport & Plant Hire (Broughty Ferry) of Beattock—was found guilty of counselling and procuring drivers to falsify tachograph records when his firm was operating from Carlisle in 1992.
The firm's transport manager, Maurice Henderson, of Eunice Way, St Annes, Carlisle, pleaded guilty to similar charges. Sentencing was adjourned pending reports.
