particular care when driving and use slower speeds and plan for  longer journey times, with appropriate breaks.  Eyesight  The highway code requires that all drivers have vision that meets  certain requirements, Lockton requires that yours do meet the  requirement. In the event that you currently do not use glasses or  contact lens to correct your vision, either generally or when driving,  and you suspect that your vision does not meet with the  requirement of the highway code then Lockton requires you do not  drive and that you request an vision test which Lockton will either  arrange through HR or reimburse the cost of the standard eye test to  the individual. If this reveals that glasses or contact lens are required  to correct your vision then you should not drive until these are  available to use, Lockton regrets it cannot fund the purchase of  these.  Motoring offences, speeding, parking fines, eFlow,  fixed penalty notices  The driver of the vehicle is liable for these charges and costs at all  times. The only cost that Lockton will reimburse is the eFlow – where  the charge has arisen solely due to a business meeting need and not  through a journey associated with the regular commute to work.  Hiring a Vehicle for use on Company Business  In exceptional circumstances you may hire a car for business use  provided that:   You have the prior approval of your MD. (Exchange of e‐mails  prior to inception of the hire will suffice)   The booking is made in the name of the company, not in the  name of an individual.   The vehicle is hired solely for use on company business.  Personal use of hire cars is not allowed.
