(( Emmerdale: Things get tense between Will, Jimmy and Aaron at the scrapyard)
Recently in Emmerdale, Jimmy King (Nick Miles) was taken aback when an inspector arrived at his haulage business ready for some impromptu tests.
The man wanted to check the tachographs, a device that’s fitted onto lorries to record speed, distance, driving time, and to ensure the driver takes the right amount of rest.
The inspector said that after checking the books, Jimmy had gone over the allotted driving time.
Somewhat taken aback, Jimmy was fearful when the inspector delivered a fine and revealed he has 28 days to pay it.
Back at home, Jimmy updated Nicola (Nicola Wheeler) and admitted he hadn’t been entirely honest with recording his own drives, because he’s been doing a few more on the sly to earn extra cash and also distract himself from Angel’s (Rebecca Bakes) absence.
Disappointed, Nicola was left wondering how on earth they were going to pay the very hefty bill.
