What is the penalty for a lorry driver carrying three persons more than the number of seats stated on the vehicle's registration document?
aRetention of driving licence for 3 months.
bRetention of driving licence for 3 months and a driver qualification check.
cRetention of driving licence for 6 months.
Why?
Carrying at least three people in a truck above the seating capacity stated in its registration certificate results in the driving licence being retained for 3 months. This offence alone does not automatically require a driving qualification retest or a 6-month licence suspension, so B and C are incorrect.
