Exciting News!

So, I’ve some news. I’ve booked myself on an RTITB Instructor Academy Train the Trainer course at beginning of February. Basically to learn how to construct and hold training courses, in my case initially to be able to hold Driver CPC courses. So by mid Feb I should be able to start holding them! Exciting!

It’s rather expensive, though not when you consider the income that can result from it. If I can’t get the Job Centre to pay for it I’ve some ideas of how I can raise funds, watch this space! So an exciting start to the year! #Exciting!

Without wishing to sound big headed I think I could be a really good trainer. I’ve a huge amount of passion for subject, am very knowledgable about it & absolutely love teaching people things, up to now via videos. My provisional plan is to hold them in different locations all over country and offer some options you don’t get anywhere else, so potentially overnight courses for night drivers, or early starts so we can finish early and your whole day isn’t taken up by sitting in a classroom. Right, time to get back to calling myself a twat. Have a good rest of day all, I am really excited by this! #Training #education #driver #lorrydriver #drivercpc #transport #trucking #logistics

SAVE BERTIE

Friends, disturbing news. When I woke up this morning Bertie was gone. I tried ringing but he left his phone in the lorry. Then, just now, I got this disturbing picture. It seems Jason from Chrome Northwest has kidnapped him. Basically unless www.facebook.com/chromenorthwest gets over the 2,000 like hurdle by the end of the day it will be the end of Bertie! Nooooooooo! So quick, LIKE NOW ONWARD!

#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 ...

#MyTopThree; Vehicles. Number 1

I was young once! (To be fair I was at least 35 here!) So……my all time favourite truck was never really in doubt was it?! My FH16 750 I drove for Virginia is the single best vehicle I’ve ever driven but as a whole the Volvo FH is in my opinion one of the best vehicles ever made, and the final version with this cab, the V3, the ultimate version. The only sensible downside anyone can ever come up with is inside space with the sharply raked screen. It was a struggle at first moving from a Topline but when everything else was just better about the Volvo, not least an extra 310 horses under my right foot!.  When Virginia gave me the 750 I thought I’d better make the most of it, of having the most powerful truck on the road as Scania had only lost the title a year or two previously so as everyone said (including me) they’d soon bring out a 750 killer. Well, that took a while. Only now have they released the 770S, 9 years after this truck hit the road and 6 years after I stopped driving i...
