The court convicted the defendant of driving a heavy goods vehicle without a valid C+E license and failing to update the digital driver's card with required data. Although the defendant claimed he forgot to update the card and believed his employer handled formalities, the court rejected this excuse as the driver was experienced and the medical exam dates were explicit in his qualifications. Consequently, the court imposed a 1500 PLN fine, noting the violations were committed negligently but still punishable under the Road Transport Act.
