get some chalk you,ll need it for the rdc,s ■■?

Relax, enjoy the drive, plenty of mirrors etc.

Don’t swear when someone appears out of nowhere, the examiner isn’t keen on that :blush:

You have to straddle lanes much more in an artic compared to a rigid so its important to block both lanes enough to stop people creeping up the sides… Also when turning say at traffic lights if you’ve doubt take loads of room because once you start turning theres no going back…

If you’re not very good at tests rescue remedy works wonders and so does bananas for some reason I can’t remember…

Take your time when your near other large vehicles and remember to look check and look again, try not to over estimate where you need to be at junctions, corners and manoeuvres etc ?
Best of luck, hope u do well
