Taxi Driver Online

hiya i have the headscratching job of defending one of my assoc members who has been accused of working whilst on a ban.
he assures me he has'nt so i have to go with what he tells me
he recieved a letter from local council this weekend demanding he turn up at the offices this friday coming to face an interview under caution regarding this matter .
they say they have evidence to his wrongdoing can they throw the book at him for heasay or do they need actual proof he was working

regards jogra4

They will need more than hearsay evidence to convince a court that a ban is legal.

I would attend the meeting, listen to what they have to say and then deny it (if he didn't do it), and then leave.

If they intend to ban further then he should receive full discloser of the evidence against him. If not then he has not had a fair hearing.

I don't doubt that you will do your best, but I bet he wishes now he was in a union. Is £11 a month too much to stay employed?

hiya sussex he was originally banned for 2 months for "DECEPTION" when he plated a vehicle then removed insurance because he never had a driver for it maybe he was wrong its not my place to judge but the basis of all this i believe is we have a new licencing officer out to make a name after the other one gave in cos he couldnt get his own tyrannical way and it seems this new guy is gunning for my member who incidentaly is my treasurer and part of the team who wouldnt let the other guy ride roughshod over us i have advised him to deny and ask for proof and i will be present at the interview in my capacity of chairman of assoc and just to be a pain to this new guy i want to bill council for our time under 1847 act if all prooves to be unfounded any thoughts

cheers jogra4

oh we were unionised but a certain person in union said to us we wont get defence cos of low membership in area

Very strange.

A union might not want to take action on a large scale if there is only a small membership, but I'm amazed they wouldn't front up in defence of an individual possibly losing his license.

VEHICLE INSURANCE CONDITION.

The condition made by Bromsgrove that all vehicle owners provide, and pay for, a
certificate of insurance for 12 months was found to be unreasonable by magistrates. It
was shown in evidence that many insurance companies provide short period cover
notes and held that the cost of an annual certificate could be too onerous on the
trade. (December 1996).
