My daughter works for an arm of the NHS. As such, from time to time, she has a hire car for work travel arranged through a contract with a large and well known hire company.
She had a car booked from midday on 22 January to undertake a trip to an work site in SW England. For operational reasons the hire company delivered it to her home in NE Wales at around 10pm on the previous day - 21 January. It was left on road outside her house. She remembers being in bed and hearing the rental company guys outside and keys being dropped through her letterbox.
She left the car there until hire formally commenced and then drove to her destination and did whatever was needed. The car was either returned or collected.
Today she has had a S172 from the N Wales police requiring her to name the driver as vehicle was caught at 58 in a 50 by average speed camera at 21:56 on 21 January. Westbound and on obvious route from hire co site to her home. Obviously the initial notice has gone to the hire company and they've named her.
She's obliged to return the S172 and will do so with a suitable explanation as to why she cannot name the driver. She will also involve the contracts folks at work to take in up with hire company.
Is there anything else she should do and, given that those receiving S172 notices will, perhaps rightly, be hard bitten sceptics is there anything else she should do or be prepared for?
