I pointed out to him that there was two numberplates on the unit and that as it was a rental unit which was hired from Camerons at Barnsley, it would appear registered as such, that the name of the company on the trailer no longer existed and that I was an agency driver so the results wouldn't help but the tachograph and my driving licence in my wallet both with my name on would.
