      It seems as many that are leaving because of how badly drivers get treated especially agency there are just as many willing to pay to go through the same motions later on I know a few that have passed class 1 and just can’t do the job/hours etc so good luck I’ve about had enough after 12 years it’s just getting worse

    Generally speaking, a period of availability ( POA ) is waiting time, the duration of which must be known in advance. Examples of what might count as a POA are accompanying a vehicle on a ferry crossing or waiting while other workers load/unload the vehicle.

      @Ravenclaw1 ring around all agencies in your area the 1st 2 years are always hardest class 1 due to insurance demands over 25 and 2 years experience at most companies so agency is your best bet mate but will be slow and shit shifts for a while good luck

    Beware, on site awaiting to load, unload when a driver can be called upon is POA NOT rest, unless, a driver is content to breach regulations risking prosecutions and fines when, by way of practice, a driver evades compliance.

    • @TRUCKERKEV
      @TRUCKERKEV  Před rokem

      I mean it’s not something I would advice to do for a long period of time unless that lifestyle suits you but that rate of pay PAYE it’s not bad at all in my opinion (providing I lived closer)
