There's a problem with unlicenced drivers in unlicenced vehicles in your area, you started another thread about it. :-o But that was at schooltime..

Unlicensed drivers and unlicensed vehicles are not being stopped in these checks though. It is only Hackney plated vehicles from our own area that get checked. Correct me if I am wrong but the council can only check vehicles that are licensed by themselves, which by definition EXCLUDES unlicensed vehicles and vehicles licensed by another area.


Thats the way I understand it, im even not sure a LO can check a HC/PH from his LA if outside the LA...

In my experience as soon as there's check everyone knows with in seconds of the first vehicle being checked, and all the lets say not so professional drivers go home, or hide :D , so checking on a Saturday night don't work, and it does state in the act may by notice reasonably require: is a Saturday night reasonable, I don't think anyone can argue that, so I would refuse to go, unless a section 68 was severed.
