CHECK!!!

Had my assessment drive on Monday…yep, scared pooless less as I climbed into the cab! Never driven anything bigger than the odd Transit Luton before.

It was such a buzz though and definitely confirmed that this is what I want to do for a career from now on.

I used WTTL in Devizes, very impressed with their proffesionalism & my assessor was superb (thanks Dave!)

I had a DAF LF with four-over-four gearbox, it wasn’t too bad, thought I’d make a bigger hash of it than I did :wink:

The toughest part for me was trying to be controlled on the footbrake. It seemed to be more of a switch! I’d try to ease the brake on gently as I approched a junction, etc. but nothing would seem to happen, then when almost on top of the juction I’d have to stand on it :blush:

Still, didn’t kill anybody & only scuffed one kerb, so I guess that’s a result :unamused:

Theory & HPT on Tuesday then time to book training :smiley:

Sounds like you had good fun. Don’t press the brake pedal, Squeeze it like a sponge with your foot. Might help to wear light shoes or trainers.

I have only heard good things about your training company so you should be in safe hands.

Good luck mate and keep the board up to date with your progress.
