Traffic commissioner hearing

As the O licence holder you are responsible for all of the company’s vehicles not just those specified, so the van offence is relevant because you committed it. To the authorities 10 to 12 mph over the limit indicates deliberate flouting of the limit rather than accidental transgression so expect the matter to be taken rather seriously. The TC is likely to be needing significant reassurance that as the licence holder you take your duty seriously to ensure that the company’s other professional drivers comply with the requirements. Currently he is probably under the impression that you have a cavalier attitude towards this aspect of road safety and as licence holder you might be applying pressure upon other drivers to rush about. You may well be advised to book yourself voluntarily onto a speed awareness course as proof of your intent.
