USING AN overloaded vehicle without the authority of an 0-licence has cost a Bangor.North Wales, operator £575 in fines and costs.
Harry Evans, of Llandegai Road, Bangor, admitted the offence, and failing to notify a change of ownership of the vehicle, when he appeared before Caernarfon Magistrates.
Traffic examiner Richard Mill said a two-axled
rigid vehicle driven by Evans was checked at the Victoria Dock, Caernarfon; last October. Evans said he was the owner of the vehicle and was on a journey from Bangor to Abersoch with a load of asphalt.The vehicle was not displaying an 0-licence identity disc.
Asked why he was using the vehicle illegally as he was not the holder of an 0-licence, Evans had said he had been told by a few people that if he was carrying his own goods he did not need one.
By weighing the vehicle using weigh pads it was found that the permitted first axle weight had been exceeded by 4.3% and the permitted gross weight by 8.7%.
Enquiries revealed that the vehicle was still registered to a Thomas Evans, of 131aenau Ffestiniog.
Th.e magistrates fined Harry Evans £500 for having no 0-licence and ordered him to pay £75 towards the costs of the prosecution.
