As far back as 2006 the CWU estimated that 30,000 postal workers were using their cars to transport mail. Royal Mail back then insisted that it had authorised just 10,000 private cars for use on deliveries nationwide, and that it has a "zero tolerance" approach to anyone failing to comply with rules.
Well that doesn't surprise me.
