[streaky]

No link online yet, but there are reports this morning that DVLA has lost the records of "thousands" of disqualified drivers. Once again, they demonstrate that the 'Agency' is NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE - STreaky

Where did you hear this Streaky?
Who is reporting it, not doubting you just want to narrow it down a bit online.

Can't find anything online yet but the story below is quite unbelievable.

To think someone at the DVLA actually believed that the emails from a yahoo email address was an official court email beggers belief.

I've now discovered it's in the DT this morning but not (yet) on the DT website. It's also been mentioned (or very similar) in an article about the '54 pointer' - Streaky

Blimey!!

I lost my licence twice in '70 and '75 in moments of 2-wheeled madness (NOT DD related) so does this mean I now have a clean sheet??

Could this have been PCOJ rather than simple s.3 fraud?

And this is one area where I would have welcomed the Court exercising its discretion to impose a driving ban for any offence.
