It occurred to me that it MIGHT have something to do with that road

I'd hope not. Lorries in the UK are restricted to 58 mph.

I thought the legal limit on motorways for HGV was 60mph, but they're
limited by EU regulations to 90kph=56mph ?

EU regulations ARE a legal limit. Until we leave the EU.

An LGV doing 60mph on a motorway or on a dual carriageway in England and
Wales is in breach of the construction and use regulations, which cover
the speed limiter, but is not exceeding the speed limit.
