HGV Driver with Mobile Phone Offence Gets 2 Weeks Suspension Rather than Starting Point of 4
This driver, represented by Millicent Dooher, was called before the Office of the Traffic Commissioner following an offence of using a mobile telephone whilst driving an HGV.
The starting point for a mobile telephone offence (CU80) in an HGV is a 4 week suspension of your vocational licence. Millicent was able to persuade the Traffic Commissioner to reduce this to a 2 week suspension when considering the driver’s personal family circumstances.
