Dear John

We’re pleased to invite you to a unique and invaluable event: the ‘Mock Traffic Commissioner Public Inquiry’ taking place on Wednesday 10 July, at Senate House, University of London.

Why Attend? 
This exclusive free-to-attend event offers transport managers, fleet directors, and transport professionals a rare opportunity to witness a simulated Traffic Commissioner’s Public Inquiry in a safe, engaging, and educational environment.

Issues to be Addressed: 
• A DVSA roadside stop revealing a breach of Direct Vision Standard requirements.
• An unsatisfactory DVSA/police compliance visit.
• Testimony from a former driver as a hostile witness.
