A senior Leeds councillor has backed calls for lorries to be banned from using standard sat-nav systems, to prevent chaos for pedestrians and car users.
Stewart Golton said HGV drivers using a GPS system designed for cars can be a “menace” as they’re frequently sent down roads not designed for large vehicles.
One such example is Pottery Lane, in Woodlesford, which HGVs use to avoid the low railway bridge on the neighbouring Aberford Road.
