I do wish Limeyphil would stop messing about and tell us what he think’s about this.
About the same as everyone else by the looks of things.
The way I see it is I’m just starting out in the trade and, although I’m not doing bad, I’ve still got a lot to learn, you guys who have been doing it for three years or more shouldn’t have to do it, it’s rediculous!
Personally, I think once you get your license it should be a legal requirement to attend a course regarding some of the practicalities, i.e. securing the load, map reading (some people can’t) and driver’s hours in detail before you’re allowed to do it for a living- BUT if you’ve been doing it for a few years it’s stupid! I also think although I said it should be a legal requirement, there should be no charge (you’ve just paid thousands for your license after all).
