That’s right who is your mate?

Pity I’m so far away, this seems like a decent wage and I’ve seen quite a few of their Wagons about, seem OK.
Good luck to whoever applies.

Unpaid break under ADR? Thanks but no thanks. :wink:

Hi Nick,

You’ve got me stumped. :open_mouth:

What’s the issue with an unpaid break under ADR :question:

Are there any laws/rules in ADR where it states that the driver MUST stay with the load ?

ROG:

I’m not aware of any, but I’m no expert.

Even if there was, why’s that a problem for a break? Only a rest must you be free to dispose of your time as you see fit.

I don’t agree with unpaid breaks in haulage tbh, and it’s becoming quite common now, but them wages certainly aren’t bad, especially for a class 2, looking at the overall wage = who gives a ■■■■ about an unpaid break really.

paid break because your still held responsible
for the truck and load.

it aint general where you can just park any ol place
and wander off

My point is this -

Is the driver of an ADR load legally allowed to leave the load and perhaps go into a superstore for brekky as an example ?

If my memory serves me correctly, vehicle must be in sight at all times. That was back in 1997 when I did an ADR course.

yeah i agree with that - from what i remember you either gotta be able to see it all the time or you gotta stay with it all the time.
