Vocational Licence Restored Immediately at Conduct Hearing after Convictions for Causing Serious Injury by Careless Driving

Simon Clarke represented this driver at a Driver Conduct hearing on his application for the return of his vocational licence following a 12-months’ disqualification for two convictions for Causing Serious Injury by Dangerous Driving. Traffic commissioners will usually follow their own Statutory Guidance in these cases, here the Guidance suggests that a 4-weeks period should elapse between a driver getting his car licence back and the return of his vocational entitlement.

Following written and oral submissions by Simon Clarke, the Traffic Commissioner decided to immediately restore our client’s vocational entitlement without any qualifying period.
