Going for my class1

TruckerMike33:
A few questions I have are

  1. Will my experience driving the Terberg go in my favour for my class one course on the road ?
  2. If I pass my class one would that experience go in my favour with employers as I know I’ll be a new pass on class one?
  3. Also would the fact I’ve held my class 2 since 2015 help with insurance etc help me with the 6months/ 2 years many require to get jobs?
  1. No. On the road is where all the idiots are, shunting in the yard is a fairly safe environment where people are trained to operate

  2. & 3) are pretty much the same question it seems to me: In my personal experience, No. But again, a lot will depend on the individual employer and insurer so there’s no hard and fast rules about that.
