Tough Action Taken By Traffic Commissioners On Tailgating

The traffic commissioner (TC) for Wales, Nick Jones, has warned that HGV drivers will face strong action if they are caught tailgating after two drivers admitted doing so at a conduct hearing.

NR Parsons Transport drivers Alan Reynolds and Robert Lloyd, both based in Kington, admitted tailgating during a driver conduct hearing.

They were seen tailgating cars in September 2016, while driving N R Parsons Transport HGVs, by a DVSA traffic examiner as the vehicles travelled from Hereford to Letton.
