J. J. GRACE AND E. M. HAND, V trading as Aintree Transport Corny, Liverpool, were taken to task by the rth Western Licensing Authority, Mr, Ft. Hodgson, at Liverpool on Tuesday for mg their A licence lapse and for failing to duce the vehicle for examination.
'hey were seeking a new A licence for one ice.
kppearing for applicants, Mr. Edward es told the LA that last year they had been y lax in ignoring a telephone message it the LA's office in August, calling the icle for examination.
'Tot only that, but they had blindly umed from the message the licence, ch had expired in June, would be autotically renewed. The vehicle was evenEly examined, found to have a few faults had to be taken off the road for repairs De effected.
kfter these were completed it had been rated under short-term authority. It was a 1960 vehicle and in need of replacement. Mr. Jones referred to the existing normal user as in need of rewording and said he had asked his clients to have another look at it.
In evidence, Mr. Hand admitted receiving the inquiry in August and overlooking the licence expiry date. The vehicle was going to be replaced and they were aware how they had put the licence in peril.
The LA referred to the vehicle being required for examination before the licence was renewed and of having received a report from the vehicle examiner that it was just not being produced. Much later it was intercepted, found to be in a poor state, and a GV9 was issued. He reminded Mr. Hand that vehicle examiners were busy men.
In granting the application Mr. Hodgson asked to be furnished with an amended normal user and told Mr. Hand they might lose the licence if there was any repetition of the happenings. He said he hoped Mr. Edward Jones had frightened them—suitably.
