vehicle owned by a company and NIPs

Wilfully refuse to disclose - Co could get £ 1,000. No points. If you tell them to get lost or it can be proved you connived to cover up etc - you could get fine and points.
But,..........If you give them a few names of people who could have driven the car ( whether on their own insurance or Co's doesn't matter ) and say that you've asked them all and none can remember, thats about as far as it can go.
The police can come round and threaten you with dire consequences but remember if they are seconded from the local partnership its their overtime thats at stake. Be civil and helpful and regretful and they will go away emptyhanded.
And if they suggest that you should be keeping a written record of drivers etc, it is not yet the law whatever the partnership might wishfully think.
been there, done it !
