Fines
The police issued a total of 11 fines for, among other things, having slippery tires, unsecured loads, overloading and a crack in the windscreen. Some fines were also linked to a measure, for example, the slippery tires had to be replaced immediately so that the combination could safely get back on the road. So many technical defects were found in a truck combination that the combination was no longer allowed to continue driving.
The driver of this combination also did not have the required code 95 on his driver’s license.
The tax authorities issued two reports for driving a vehicle with a foreign license plate while the owner is registered in the Netherlands.
