A father and son have been told that they will face tough scrutiny before they can re-enter the haulage industry after the son's licence was revoked for offences including using an unauthorised operating centre nearly 100 times.
The international licence for three vehicles and three trailers held by Swinton-based Paul Jemmett, trading as Paul Jemmett Transport, was revoked with immediate effect after North Western Deputy Traffic Commissioner (DTC) Patrick Mulvenna refused to accept an offer to surrender it.
Jemmett's father Herbert was his nominated transport manager. Paul Jemmett had been called before the DTC at a Golborne public inquiry because of concern over vehicle maintenance, drivers' hours and records offences and the use of an unauthorised operating centre. He failed to attend.
The DTC said that there had been a number of prohibitions relating to vehicle condition.
Traffic examiner Thomas Hitchin said that an analysis of tachograph charts revealed that one driver had committed three 4.5hour driving offences and falsified tachograph charts on nine occa sions. It also revealed the use of an unauthorised operating centre at Swinton on 95 occasions. It was apparent that Jernmett was unaware of the driver's offences, which reflected a lack of tachograph analysis by himself and his father.
In revoking the licence, the DTC directed that neither Jemmett nor his father be granted a new 0-licence in until they attended a public inquiry at which their repute as an operator would be considered.
