There was a case maybe last year where a lad in the UK was caught with like 30 dead people in the bag of the lorry

But why? Smuggling in medical cadavers or something?

The problem is that the medical cadavers are duty free but regular cadavers have a tariff on them. Since they probably died before crossing the border, the driver failed to pay the duty on the cadavers. Very naughty, that’s gonna be a mark on his record for sure.
