The offence was proved using the single justice procedure at Bath Magistrates’ Court on May 16.

Elite Taxis Ltd was fined £1,000, and was also ordered to pay a £400 surcharge and £90 in costs.

A cynic might say that the firm knew who the driver was, maybe even the boss.

But paying that amount in fines and costs would be a far better outcome than the driver getting banned if they already had a hateful of points.

It's also worth the council asking the firm why they didn't know who was driving. :-k

yes you have to wonder if the fine was the lesser of two evils for the owner. Why else would you not disclose the information ?
