Will the DCPC stop this sort of thing from happening?
No, but if the driver had been wearing his hi-viz and a hard hat it could have been prevented

No, but 9 pallets worth of no headaches for a week or 2 … No excuses …

How fast would it be to unload 9 pallets, they must have had a large van even if they handballed them off, surely someone must have seen something on a busy service area.
That is the biggest problem, the Northampton RDC are looking for these guys too, they want to offer them a job tipping lorries. It takes their own staff 4 hours to unload 9 pallets

If the driver had woken up and suspected that he was being burgled should he have got up, armed himself with a rolled up newspaper and gone round the back to ask the drug-dealers, burglars, miscreants to please desist. If it were me and I had a phone with me and I had a signal and i would not have provoked the attention of the criminals, I would have called the police.
Either that or start the engine up and start to pull away, hopefully it would startle them into jumping off.

Not sure there is a mode for that on the tacho, daily rest interupted to startle robbers. Or can you do a manual entry?

Who said he was on daily rest or have I missed something? By the time the old bill get there anyway they might be gone.

Maybe, but perhaps this is comparable to saying that a ■■■■ victim was compliant because she didn’t risk life and limb by fighting off her attacker.
