I had a think about things and the following night I asked what would happen if I failed the assessment? ‘You wouldn’t be able to drive for us any more’. I then enquired who was going to drive me and the load back to Sheff the following morning if I failed?

never saw the bloke again after that

Yeah of course that’s what happened. More RDC waiting room bollox I’m afraid. I worked there for over a year. A hub standby driver would have driven you back to the depot the same as one drove me back to York one morning when I became ill enough on the way down that I didn’t feel safe driving back. How he got back to Smethwick I don’t know but they do have drivers available who can drive the vehicle back to your depot if you’re not able to.
