Airside Driving Infringments

Not sure the title is the best for the question but her goes...

I have deliberately left this a few weeks to avoid any embarrassment to those involved and will leave the details sketchy for the same reason.

If a vehicle operating on the maneuvouring area repeatedly ignores or incorrectly follows direct instructions from GMC can ATC request the withdrawl of the drivers' airside permit?

I undestand that Airfield Operations have the responsibilty for monitoring airfield driving standards and related safety, but individual companies are responsible for driver training and examination, (either directly or through an approved trainer).

The reason I ask is a vehicle driver recently had severe problems in taking clearances and even when the clearances were copied correctly failed on follow them - ie using different taxiways to those he/she was cleared for. I think this happened 5 or 6 times in one day...
