i bet you do driver training ?
Do you think only DCPC trainers are in favour of keeping it? If so, you’re wrong.
I’ve got my class 1, so I can honestly say I’m a driver. But more often these days I’m a DGSA and an external TM, I see drivers getting theirselves infringements (and putting the company at risk) because they haven’t got the sense to plan their breaks properly, or not doing their defects checks properly.
My time is limited, so the easiest thing for me to do is send them for a days DCPC with a trainer of known quality to be reminded of what they claim they already know. That way the next time they have two defective tyres or don’t take a 45minute break before the 4.5 hours has passed, they can’t say they didn’t know it was important, because I’ve had someone else spend a whole day telling them what is must-know information, while I’m busy doing all the other stuff to make sure the company stays out of trouble with DVSA and the TC.
