Lukes Top Tips!

Good morrow one and all. Now before I start I'm not for a second putting myself up as some sort of all knowing oracle! I'm just a tit that's happy to make a fool of himself on camera.

Anyhow as you may have seen I have started dropping little hints and tips into my videos after getting messages for new and wannabe (I hate that word) drivers who find them useful. So I'm gonna do a few videos that revolve around tips and hints. I soon will be buying a tiny camera that fits over the ear like a Bluetooth headset so I can film what I see and have both hands free.

So what would you like to see? Again I'd just like to remind people I'm not in anyway a trainer or the like, I'm just an everyday driver doing an everyday job. I just want the tips to be stuff that'll help a new driver along when he's passed his test and is starting out. When I started out I had my Dad on the end of the phone and I'd have been lost without his advice but many new drivers don't have this so I'd like to help if possible.

I'll do stuff like hitching up, reversing, fridges etc. just wondered what else people want to know about. I've never done tankers or car transporters but I've pretty much had a go at everything else!

So let's see how it goes and I hope you don't think I'm a know it all big head.

MILKMAN LUKE

Hello chums. Waterford Show was a great time, met loads of great people and saw lots of brilliant trucks. Im gonna do a blog post later in the week with pics and the like. If you have any of you that you had taken with me and Bertie please send them so I can share. lorrydriverluke@live.com. I met a certain someone at the show as you can see in the pic, I think Bertie's new name plate sums the situation up! Anyhow, have a little bonus video. Of me on a milk round with my Dad. Hope you enjoy. Luke Vernon www.lorry-driver.com www.twitter.com/LukeVernon

Looking To The Future……..

So, here goes then! I’m a LinkedIn novice, having spent a lifetime as a driver! Background- after a serious car accident in 2020 that very nearly killed me I started thinking about the future, as you do when you came so close to not having one! Driving was my dream job, I’ve driven so many things from minibuses and coaches to trucks & vans and even plant machiny like articulated dumper trucks & diggers in a career that crossed 20+ countries in Europe from Portugal to Hungary to Norway to Finland to Ireland and everywhere in between so many times over a near 25 year career.. I had the time of my life, it was amazing, but…… I’ve done all I dreamed of. My CV looks ridiculous because I wanted to experience everything, which I did. But this has left me wondering what’s next? Do I simply repeat everything over the next 20 years. Which would be easy but not fulfilling or do I strike out on a new path? I’m choosing the latter.   I’m incredibly experienced as a driver but obvio...
