WTD and fines

J-BONE:
So could that driver if he kept re offending face justified disciplinary action by his employer?

Yes absolutely he could, the fact that the DVSA aren’t particularly interested in enforcing the WTD at the road-side doesn’t stop it being law.

Whilst a recent FOI request showed that no one individual / Operator has been prosecuted under the WTD, the Fine Level is Level 5 - £2500 at Court!

Traffic Commissioners will ask an Operator, at a PI, certain basic questions on the WTD - don’t get them wrong.
