Driving: Disqualification
(asked on 12th October 2016) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government how many disqualification decisions taken in another EU member state have been given effect in the UK, in each of the last three years, under the terms of the European Convention on Driving Disqualifications.
This question was answered on 18th October 2016
After committing a driving offence in another EU member state, 26 drivers were disqualified in the UK in 2014 under the terms of the European Convention on Driving Disqualifications. There are no numbers for 2015 & 2016 as the convention ceased to apply in December 2014 following the UK’s Treaty of Lisbon opt-out.
