Declaring driving offences on a vetting form?
#10
Section 171? Temporary licence to excavate a highway? how is that relevant?


Also you can be cautioned any time, anywhere, if an officer suspects your involvement in an offence he should read you your rights (god i hate that american term) but its the old "you do not have to say anything but it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court and anything you do say may be given in evidence"

However to receive an official police caution (usually for a first minor offence) it is because you have admitted an offence and the police have evidence to prove you guilty but don't send you to court to get punished in any other way.







Anyway with regards to declaring stuff for vetting declare EVERYTHING if you aren't sure, they don't expect you to be whiter than white and understand that people are done for minor traffic offences all the time. It looks alot better if you declare something they aren't interested in than not declaring it and them finding it and you looking like you lied.

I had to declare I'd been the subject of 2 police investigations on my last vetting form. One for cycling without due care and attention and one for driving without due care and attention.
