Flyin'Dutch' wrote:@flyingearly By your logic who would prosecute people without a driving licence?
The CPS. In fact - happy to admit my ignorance - I didn't realise the DVLA prosecuted either; I had assumed that everything routed through the CPS with the exception of the RSPCA who could 'initiate' a prosecution, but handed it over to the CPS thereafter.
My point really was: if I don't have a licence, what's the CAA got to do with me?
My assumption was that the CAA regulate pilots; the DVLA regulate drivers, the RSPCA regulate animal owners/carers. But if I am not a qualified pilot, do not hold a driving licence and have nothing to do with animals, then any prosecution coming my way would be from the CPS (perhaps leaning on the relevant experts from those bodies as required).
But, as others have pointed out, I'm wrong and so this has been a very interesting learning opportunity!
