    To be honest, without DVLA giving a date of the alleged smoke offence, it could have been years ago and before your ownership of the truck. I’d write back asking for the date of the alleged offence. All speeding offences etc are from the date of the alleged offence. I’d also request a copy of the evidence they have that states you were making too much smoke and a calibration certificate from the tester. Or a copy of the witness statement and DVLA statement on what makes that person/witness a competent subject matter expert able to judge what constitutes too much smoke. You could also state that you believe this was simply a malicious compliant made by a ‘feckless hater’ (or a more professional term that means exactly the same 😉) which is wasting both your and the DVLAs time and money.

      Issue with that is 1. almost guarantees a visit to your operating centre and 2. almost certainly puts a target on your back (well back of the truck) for a road side stop. Although I’m sure Tim’s operation is compliant it’s a stress nobody needs for the sake of a smoke test at Lombardos’s.

    Hah. That reminds me of a time many years back when I was on buses and I had a suspected cylinder head failure, but was trying to nurse it to the end of the shift; it was steaming a bit from the exhaust but it developed into white smoke on my last journey. At the end, it was billowing out, so I had a recovery truck collect it.
    Two days later- driving a newly MOT'd hired in bus- VOSA turned up and when they saw me, made a beeline for me and asked for me to rev the engine. 30 seconds later they were gone. Ironically, the company that grassed me up ended up with several PG9s for their own fleet.

    There are some right pricks in this world. How on earth can someone make a report without a date or time that actually makes it to a letter being sent out, especially one which then pushes for you to go and get tested? Hopefully the person who reported it spends the rest of their life stubbing their toes, tripping up and generally being miserable, although by the sounds of it the last part is already happening. Pathetic people who like nothing more than bringing down someone else. Bother about your own life before you bother about someone elses!
