I started my career close to 50 years ago as a coach driver - my dream from being a small boy. Moved into instruction (in hindsight, far too soon) and qualified as a PSV instructor. That was 1971. In 1974, the school I was working for told me, in no uncertain terms, that I was going for HGV. Despite my protests, that’s what happened. 6 weeks after passing Class One, I had my instructor ticket. That’s not a good method - but it’s what happened. (btw, the law now states that you need to hold a licence for 3 years before able to instruct).
So I had no interest in trucks whatsoever. I did, however, move onto a combination of driving/instructing for some years before opening my school in 1985. And, yes, I am now interested in trucks!!
