Road Safety (Financial Penalty Deposit) (Appropriate Amount) Order 2009

The noble Lord is asking for a perfect system. I have already admitted that we do not have a perfect system. We are talking about getting this off the ground. We will continue to report offences to member states in which the vehicle originates. In addition, if a foreign lorry driver accumulates more than 12 penalty points in the UK, his UK driving record will show that and he will no longer be able to drive in the UK. We have a system, but I do not know how many people it catches. I believe we are going down the road that you desire.
