It was when the police stopped and checked the truck that they suspected that the tachograph had been started in connection with the fact that they started the stop.
An analysis revealed that an advanced manipulation of the software had taken place and that it was activated with a code.
The truck operator admits that he had the tachograph manipulated and violated the ordinance on driving and rest times.
During the interrogations, he told how a man came forward and offered a job while he was waiting in the ferry terminal in Malmö.
Using a computer, manipulation was performed.
It took three minutes and the truck driver paid SEK 2,000.
In addition to the daily fine, his company must pay a fine of SEK 150,000.
