If you have a truck sat-nav a tape measure is handy for finding out your vehicle’s length and width. This information is rarely included on the ministry plate I’ve found.I drive rigids
Might be an idea to know the height as well …
I’ve yet to come across a missing in-cab height indicator. It’s moot anyway as the vehicle wouldn’t move out of the yard without one.

Maybe, but I have come across them set wrongly. When I got my current truck it was set at 12’5", checked it and it turned out to be 12’6". Admittedly marginal but it could have ended up expensive and embarrassing on a tight bridge.

That only applies when the joke is understood and I don’t get the link between Bluetooth and agency drivers when they are common among all drivers regardless of employment status. I dont care if people have digs at agency drivers because it works both ways since we (or at least some of us…maybe just a few of us) are superior drivers

Height is really the important one… The settings on my sat-nav are the same as the ones I found in that one truck that one time, except for height which I do at the start of the day (if I even need the satnav).
I’ll agree to the ability to resist hitting other drivers and add a lunchbox.

They do, but they know how to use the cab phone (and already have their mates/misses/other trucks in the fleet’s numbers saved in it).
