A LORRY driver who killed a husband and wife in a horror road smash has walked free from court.
David Scott, 33, failed to spot Mohammed and Shamim Rashid as they sat in queuing traffic on a slip road near Bellshill, Lanarkshire.
His road sweeper ploughed into the back of their BMW 1 Series, which was then forced forward and collided with another car.
Emergency services raced to the scene on the A725 in August 2022 and the Rashids, of Bellshill, were rushed to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow.
