Take the nights out or not? That is the question

ffs what the hell am i doing wrong i’m stuck on agency if you dnt want the sodding job pm me and give me (depending on where you are of course )his number i’ll drive the sodding thing if you dnt think you can handle the job then stand aside because in the current climate there is plenty that will take your place

dnt get me wrong i’m all for giving newbies a chance but ffs get a grip

and last but not least use the flipping search facility as for what to take with you :imp: :imp: :imp: :imp: :imp:

You mean this one - NIGHTS OUT - what to take from our own FAQ forum :smiley:

Go for it. If only to get the experience.

FarmFoods. From previous posts on here. It can be multi-drop and damned hard work.

The fact that the trailers are high, unless, as stated, double Decker’s, then all you really need to worry about is bridge heights.

The ‘actual’ height of the trailer is, largely immaterial. What you need to concern yourself with is the height of the ‘Centre of Gravity’ (CofG) of the LOAD. Which you can only assess from experience.

IMHO most ‘overturns’ result from decelerating at high revs whilst applying an additional ‘steering’ action.

The maxim to remember is: Brakes are for slowing. Gears are for going.

‘Deceleration’ will invariably reduce the speed of the ‘vehicle’, but will not necessarily reduce the the ‘momentum’ (speed x weight) of the load/trailer.

Hence the load/trailer ‘overtakes’ the stability of the ‘unit’ and it all finishes up on it’s side.

Therefore, when determining that a loss of speed is required (when following a curved path) it is far better to ‘dab’ the brakes than to merely remove pressure from the accelerator.

In effect. It is basic physics.
