Does a driver being caught without a strap over his load aff

So was it Plod who gave him the fine? I had a driver (last year) who lost a stillage from his vehicle, some damage to two cars from ejected metal pieces, but no injuries. Two Plod cars attended, no DVSA, he got a fine, no mention of points at the time, he retired soon afterwards so I’ve no idea if anything further came of it, absolutely nothing on OCRS related to this incident :sunglasses:
