M6 lorry driver swerves across lanes while scrolling through TikTok

A lorry driver was caught by undercover police scrolling through TikTok while driving on the M6 in Staffordshire. Officers also saw the man watching a video during a five-day crackdown on dangerous driving habits. Staffordshire Police - in partnership with National Highways - carried out Operation Tramline using an unmarked HGV tractor unit to patrol the county's motorways and strategic roads.

From an elevated position, officers were able to spot if motorists were making calls on handheld mobile phones or not wearing seatbelts. The man caught watching a video and scrolling through TikTok while behind the wheel of a HGV was on the M6 Toll, near Cannock. It caused him to swerve across lanes of the motorway.
