How are DVSA getting away with prosecuting drivers whilst on bay
(tacho on bed) but sitting drinking coffee/On phones in drivers waiting/“sleeping” area@ Tesco Dc Livingston??

Really? Or just more rdc chatter?

Nope,
I’ve seen DVSA with my own eyes in Tesco Livingston with drivers pulled up off the bays.
They’re fond of pulling just outside barriers also.

I don’t doubt you’ve seen them pulled up but what evidence do you have that drivers have been penalised and for what offences?

Heard on the boats!!![emoji847]

They seem to point out:

“How have you had a 1/2hr break when we can see you walk back/forward the 5min to “goods in” (paperwork in hand)
which clearly means you should be on “other work” for those particular tasks and not bed”.

That makes things tricky if you’re not allowed to stay in the cab and have goods in come out to you…!
