A Polegate man has been given a heavy fine for using his car as a private hire vehicle without a licence, according to a court document.

William Beckett, 54, of Lynholm Road, Polegate, was found guilty of two offences of using a silver Ford Tourneo
car as a private hire vehicle without having a current licence.

The offences took place in East Sussex between October 6 last year and January 7 this year.

He was fined £1,000 for each offence and ordered to pay £476.26 in prosecution costs.

The verdict was proved in his absence.

Looks like another one of those chancers who do airport and events runs on the cheap.

Delighted the council have acted, and delighted he made it very easy for the court by not turning up.
