I'm an owner driver but I don't have an ops licence that's why I work for a firm that does have an ops licence. I could indeed do both here if I choose to and the base I work from didn't mind


so hows that happen then?


Cos I haven't applied for an ops licence that's how


but how do you run a vehicle without 1?


I have a PH Licence i.e my badge. I only need an ops licence if I want to take my own bookings. PH Licence and an Ops Licence are two different licences

mmmm, so you run on the base ops licence, when i asked i was told i couldnt plate for another LA as they couldnt grant permission for the vehicle to be here/mine on a nusiance basis (i,e, use of property/running a business from home, even though running for a base across the border)

no wonder theres confusion

It would appear that you're licenced in one area but you would work in another area if you worked a base. Obvious solution if you wanted to work a base get licenced in that area. Obviously you would have to decide which is better for you. Your own Ops licence or the base work
