Verdict

On a claim, verify the DRIVER's age on DOL (not just on DL issue date) and the class-wise experience chain backwards. A 19-year-old driving a tanker, a 20-year-old on an HGV without 1 year LMV-T, a hazardous driver without the PESO refresher within the last 12 months — all are statutory breaches, often leading to Pay-and-Recover for TP. Record age, DL issue chain and training receipt dates in the compliance block.

claim में DOL पर DRIVER की उम्र (सिर्फ़ DL issue date की नहीं) और class-wise अनुभव chain reverse order में verify करें। 19 साल का driver tanker पर, 20 साल का बिना 1 साल LMV-T के HGV पर, hazardous driver पिछले 12 महीनों में PESO refresher बिना — सारे वैधानिक breach, TP में Pay-and-Recover अक्सर। compliance block में उम्र, DL issue chain और training receipt dates दर्ज करें।
