#TruckingDiaries: The North Remembers: Tiddy; Mission Accomplished Pt4



Good evening one and all. So sorry it’s 48 hours late but that is an improvement compared to past where they’d be weeks late! So I am getting better at this, it’s only been 11 years give me a chance.

So here we have the fourth and last in the Aberdeen series. Don’t fret though I seem to have some other videos in the cloud and I have something coming up in a month or two that will create oodles on content. So as the youngsters say- watch this space. Boo ya kash aa / down wid me homies / gotta light gov? and so on and so forth

No news re driving licence but I live in hope

As ever thank you so much for everything -

#TopTips: WTD & EU Drivers Hours

Hullo! So boom, after years of procrastination I finally have a drivers hours video! I’ve tried to simplify it and make it more of a chat than me droning on from a script and I think it’s turned out well. In the description all the chapters are marked so in future you can just skip straight to a point you may need reminding of. Would be great if you can share as much as possible, I know it’s 38 minutes but the legal aspect is only the first 18 minutes, the rest is dispelling the many myths about drivers hours that go around. Don’t forget my email is ALWAYS OPEN if you need advice or some clarification. If I can’t answer I’ll know someone who can. Also if after 24 hours I’ve not replied please email me again with REMINDER in capitals in description, some emails so fall through the cracks in my non existent filing system! So yes email and remember you are never bothering me and I’m always happy to help if I can. luke@lorry-driver.com It’s made me realise I love everything about teaching ...

DAF Review So, one of most common questions I'm asked lately is what I think of the DAF. Obviously for a long time time I've mostly driven Volvos and Scanias and before this job it was well over a decade since I last tramped full time in a DAF (for HSF). As you know though I had driven later models and hated the body XF with a passion!  When the current version came out DAF seemed very confidant it would change my mind about them in our Twitter exchanges but I thought how different can it be? The answer? A lot. In some ways its like a completely different truck despite being almost identical in looks. Firstly- the gearbox. The auto on previous DAFs was a fupping disaster and everyone knew it! Show, jerky and just generally rubbish in a way no auto should be this late in the day. That's completely changed, for the vast majority of the time it's indistinguishable from an iShift (that having long been the good standard). Yes it has its odd moments but they are very rare an...
