Trailer towing

[Justme]

Remember you dont know what you dont know.......

My 62 year old untrained but **uninjured take on training and RA's is best summed up by our H&S Officer deciding that lorries could only tip on hard flat paved surfaces, and only after chocking the wheels. Scheesh! I am not sure if he had even watched a truck tip on a site before committing his notions to print.

Etc 

Etc

Etc

**despite undertaking various potentially hazardous and unapproved procedures with power tools and machinery.

 

And all the training in the World cannot fix stupid.

Those that can, do. Those that can’t… well, you know the rest. 
 

Let’s not loose sight of the fact that trailer training was not regulated. There was no exam to pass before being allowed to call yourself a trainer, unlike a regular driving instructor.

Ah that old pile of rubbish. You will actually find that most vocational trainers can actually do it / have done it but have also skilled up on teaching skills. Most people that can, cant teach is more accurate. 

 

true which is why I am regulated as a trainer as I kept my ADI status up. I also campaigned for it to become regulated but the DVSA would not do it even though the actual Act says it should be an Adi to teach it. Oddly their responce was your only teaching them to do the trailer bit yet their own test is heavily weighted for the driving & most fails were for the driving.

 

oddly the better marker for a trainer is how their clients do on test & afterwards.

 

Lets all hope that you all dont get legislated out of a job / owning a company with 10 days notice........

I cannot tell you how happy I am to see third tier dolescum like you sweating about this. You just can't stand that the Westminster thieves have backed off people who actually perform productive work for once and have stripped hanger-on losers like you of some crumbs. Please share any hardship you experience with the forum.

They did,nt have any Cornflakes, due to a HGV driver shortage which is all down to some bright spark altering the laws on trailer towing in the 90s which is now coming to light, and all boils down to the same old thing, MONEY,

Bit harsh.

I'm glad to see the back of trailer tests, but there's no need for digs like that.

 

Justme, I wish you well for the future. When one door closes another one opens and all that.
