Facts

The accused runs a fleet of 12 heavy vehicles. On 30 January 2025 and 26 January 2025, two different heavy vehicles were detected travelling between safety cameras in less than the allowable travel time. The Regulator sent a Notice to Produce to the registered owner for the details of the drivers and the applicable work diary pages. No response was received after a second Notice to Produce was sent to the company. The company has an extensive history of not replying to any notices sent by the Regulator. The Magistrate noted it was a serious matter, frustrating the Regulator in performing its duties and possibly allowing people that are unfit to be driving heavy vehicles on New South Wales roads.

As reported by NHVR.
