Details
The Traffic Commissioner for the West Midlands decided:
-
The restricted operator’s licence, reference OD1016457, held by The Pipe Corporation Ltd (the “operator”) that authorises the operation of one vehicle and zero trailers is revoked under sections 26(1)(h) [operator now unfit], 26(1)(f) [breach of general undertakings], and 26(1)(h) [material changes since the operator’s licence was granted]. All orders of revocation will take effect at 2359 hours on 01 November 2024.
-
There will now be a separate hearing listed for me to consider whether I should disqualify the operator and the director Darren Sockett. That hearing will take place as soon as possible.
-
The application made to vary the licence, to increase authorisation from one vehicle to two vehicles, is refused.
-
From 0001 hours on 02 November 2024 the operator has no lawful authority to use, for any commercial reason, any vehicle over 3.5 tonnes. The operator is unequivocally warned that any such operation empowers the DVSA to impound that vehicle(s) and the operator now has actual knowledge of that power.
