Harley

Son lost his licence for 6 mths - received a letter from dvla so he could get his licence back. 3 wks later was stopped by police claiming he was driving without a licence. He had received his new licence from dvla, got his car insurance tax etc and has now been taken to court; got 6 points and a fine, and the car in the police pound. He was informed he should have checked the date before he requested the licence. Where does he stand on this? It must be dvla's fault they are the ones that sent the licence.

My son's car is in a police car pound, They have said he cannot pick it up or his dad unless my son has insurance tax and mot. The car does have mot, his insurance was cancelled due to his conviction, the car is taxed. Can they refuse to let his dad collect the car if his dad gets insurance. Also they will not allow him to get his belongings out of the car. Can you help thanks
