I’ve seen nowt in the trucking press yet,but in our local rag last night there was an article about driving schools and driving tests,(HGV), and it states that as from November 15th,HGV driving tests must be taken in a loadedvehicle.
Surely this is a good thing and about time too!
They should be made to swap from a loaded trailer to an unloaded trailer as both handle differently.
I reckon there will be a severe hike in price for lessons/tests putting off newbies wishing to get their licence. Not exactly helping the “driver shortage”.
? What “driver shortage” ?
