AN AIRDRIE operator that failed to act on traffic examiner reports highlighting unsatisfactory systems for monitoring drivers’ hours has had its licence curtailed by the traffic commissioner, writes Chris Tindall.
A.T Best Handlers, including director Richard Rose, appeared before the TC for Scotland, Claire Gilmore, at a Glasgow public inquiry after concerns were raised that the haulier had not made improvements ordered by the DVSA following site visits.
The company, which hires out telehandlers, excavators and compaction equipment from its Brownsburn Industrial Estate base and held a licence authorising three HGVs and three trailers, accepted the evidence provided to the TC by the enforcement agency.
