I will keep this in mind

 

Past today with 6 points.I had to use two shunts for the reverse though

 

A pass is a pass. Well done, remember keep wide from cyclists, my pet obsession

 

Will do.Passing that was one of the hardest things I ever had to do

 

Well done buddy great news

Siv

 

Cheers mate.I actually thought I failed because I new I made a few mistakes.Licence should be back with in 20 days

 

Tidy mate , well done
Now you just need to load into the **** nav where all the hookers are located throughout the uk

 

.I will only be doing round Manchester.Im not interested in nights out or early morning starts .Plenty of drivers at are place starting at 7am doing till 5-6 pm.

 

Well done ��

 

Manchester eh....

 

I took my class 1 to say I could do it not for work to put me on the road tramping.Work did offer to pay for it but then I would be tied to the company for 2yrs and have to do nights out.We have agency drivers in at the minute doing day shifts around Manchester .Id even do shunting to start off with.

 

Get yourself out there on the road start getting some miles behind or km.Will have plenty of practice shunting/reversing when out and about.

 

What have I let myself in for

 

Nothing,just saying you'll be doing plenty of reversing,almost as much as going forwards.you must of done some driving before class2 ?
I was actually in Manchester today stalybridge dropping some machinery.

 

My test was going through Stalybridge .Ive driven loads,rigids,vans,cars and so on

 

I passed my test in an artic driving an auto.I passed my car test in a manual and my rigid in a manual.Can I drive a manual artic? its something I forgot to ask on test day lol

 

Yea can drive,you past class 2 using a manual,is Oki..

 

As has been mentioned, more trucks are going automatic. Now you might only have learnt in an auto truck, but, you can drive a manual provided you have a manual car license.

I think that's a bit daft, what with split ratio gearboxes etc. There'll be a lot of crunching going on.

Congrats on your pass, Rick. I need to do my Class 1. I keep dropping hints at my gaffer, but, he doesn't run any artics any more.

 

Cheers mate.If you can pay for it your self so the company don't own you.Ive seen drivers having to sign a contract for 2 yrs and if they left the have to pay up

 

Personally think its a shame,I miss driving a manual.
Is handy for getting out the slippery stuff to,when we get a bit of snow/ice.
