At the Inquiry, the Traffic Commissioner will wish to explore any concerns they have about you, or the way your Operators licence is being managed. Additionally they may explore the performance of the Transport Manager and any driver that has breached the drivers regulations and entitlement to drive either LGVs or PSVs.
