Got a phone call this morning from Travis perkins. The actual guy I spoke to on the phone on Tuesday. He apologised for not getting back to me yesterday (whilst I sat and fumed) since he didn’t have all the facts until this morning . Fair enough. And informed me that the driver in question had been ‘read the riot act’. Reminded in no uncertain terms that using a mobile phone whilst in command of a motor vehicle is 1) against the law 2) grounds for instant dismissal. And that if it happens again ‘and they can prove it’ he’ll lose his job. Seems he had been speeding too – they can tell from the tracker in the cab.
Well I’m happy to take that at face value. An idiot has been caught out. Hopefully he wont do it again.
As you were.
