BREAKING: The driver of a Croydon tram which derailed in 2016, killing six, has been found not guilty of failing to take reasonable care at work.

Alfred Dorris, 49, was cleared after the jury deliberated for two hours at the Old Bailey

The driver of a Croydon tram which derailed in 2016, killing six, has been cleared of breaking health and safety laws. Alfred Dorris, 49, was accused of heading into a sharp curve at three times the correct speed when his tram toppled off the line at Sandilands, south London. Prosecutors claimed a ‘micro-sleep’ or spell of disorientation might have affected his judgment before the crash, which also severely injured 19 passengers.Got a story?
