Lady Lorry DriversHI all,in these days of equality what is the general feeling about Lady lorry drivers,[I dislike the term trucker],old school I suppose.Anyway my Granddaughter has just started driving Class 1 using MANs with 40ft curtain siders,she also has a coach licence.when she first started her job she encountered some hostility from the other drivers but carried on and has now been accepted.She is the only Woman among a couple of hundred drivers,but has held her own,i am so proud of her.

Never really had any problems but I do just get on with my job & don't expect any different or special treatment Driver 1st female 2nd simple as that If it looks to good to be true it probably is

Re: Lady Lorry DriversI have worked with and alongside several ladies in various male dominated trades over the years . I treat them the same as anybody that I work with. I treat them with respect and am supportive and helpful until the give me reason not to be .

Re: Lady Lorry DriversI've worked with a couple of Women before.
Myself & my fellow Male colleagues treated them with respect, but they gave as good as they got. somewhere over therainbow
Re: Lady Lorry DriversIt just shows the progress that civilisation has made.....not!.If we were a nation of gender equality, this thread wouldnt exist.
I love seeing female Drivers, just like I see female chefs in my current (soon to be former) career, it balances the workplace out. I respect any woman who makes it in a male dominated environment, its the only way for future progress. Good on her!!!
Re: Lady Lorry Drivers2 female artic drivers at our place..both excellent drivers and treated no different to anyone else.
