Driver Licence Checking

Employers are responsible for checking that their drivers have a valid driving licence when driving for work. This includes checking the licence is valid, the licence expiry date, and which vehicles the driver is allowed to drive, as well as any disqualifications, offences, and penalty points.

Companies offering this service charge a small fee per check, but this is more than outweighed by time saved.

Additional checks can be carried out

Many third-party providers also offer additional checking services such as insurance, tax, and MOT checking. They can also flag up penalty points.
