- By SOFIE JACKSON

ONE of the most infamous bridges in Hull for lorry strikes was featured in a Channel 5 documentary on Monday.

Motorway Cops: Catching Britain’s Speeders aired at 8pm, showing the moment an HGV driver was confronted by Humberside Police after he crashed into Stoneferry bridge.

The driver, who had not been speeding, called in the incident himself, admitting to the call handler, “I have just hit a railway bridge with my lorry. So I’m hiding, to be honest.”
