The
object of this web site is to provide things of interest, to the
HGV Driver, and which may not be available on the more commercial
LGV web
sites.
It is also a platform for HGV Drivers to advertise their availability, express
their
views
or
tell
their
stories.
|
The viewpoints expressed on the Trucking page may be
deliberately contentious.
(Well, being ‘normal’, so to speak, is pretty boring).
Opposing viewpoints, comments, whatever, from HGV Drivers, may
be found in the Driver ’s Letters page.
Standards
We all may appreciate that it is often very difficult to avoid
swearing at some of the things we encounter in our working life. We do not use swear words in these web pages.
Girls
The automotive scene, these days, seems to include attractive and/or
scantily clad girls.
We do provide this, but it is only on the Trucks page.
Trying to remove it, from one web site, brought threats of violence,
homicide, etc.

The Driver’s Page.
We do not monitor this section, but do we do know that some Drivers have been
contacted.
Users can now:
1. Use a paged display, which displays 10 Drivers at a
time.
or, 2. Search by area or several areas.
(Listing all Drivers, on one page, became too long to
use).
A facility that allows Drivers to advertise their services online, and for free,
is a new idea, and this section may be subject to ongoing refinement.
Ideas, or polite suggestions, welcome.
|
Work Done
Added: Driver’s own country, and any
languages they may speak.
Both these items only become visible when the user clicks on ‘Driver's
Page’.
A spell checker has being added to the Driver's section.
(Although it doesn't recognise some trucking terms).
A working HGV Driver runs this web site:
There is little time for testing, etc.
If you encounter any errors, please let me know.
Thank You

For non-UK Truckers
HGV = Heavy Goods Vehicle, (the old, UK term).
LGV = Large Goods Vehicle, (the later, EU term, that we are supposed to use).
Whilst not politically correct, HGV is far more appropriate than LGV as trucks
are regulated by weight, not size.
And HGV is the most popular and widely used truck term in the UK.
