SPEEDING AND PARKING FINES

There has been a considerable increase in speeding and parking penalty charge notices incurred this year by members of staff using our company vehicles.

11 cases in 2012
18 cases in 2013
19 cases already to beginning of August 2014

Whilst individuals are responsible for settling speeding penalty charges, the company settle any other charges ie use of Bus Lanes and parking fines and then obtain re-imbursement from the offending driver.

This is creating an ever increasing amount of time spent on administrating penalty notices.

Not only reporting the increase in administration time, would you please remind staff that whilst driving our company vehicles these must be driven with due care and attention, awareness of road traffic conditions and used in accordance with legal limits.
