Product Description

Synopsis
This is the ultimate companion for truck and coach drivers, listing all of the UK and Ireland's most popular truckers' haunts. With easy-to-follow symbols, it gives a huge range of information about truckstops, service stations and lorry parks, from canopy height and availability of showers to the price of a cup of coffee and types of fuel card accepted. There are also useful sections on how to operate your vehicle, personal driver health and laws applicable to truckers, all presented with clear photographs and diagrams. A glossary of slang and technical terms and useful contact details completes this essential guide for every truck driver.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential for all drivers, 17 Jan 2007
By A. Forrest "rooster769" (Midland UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is great (and small enough to carry with you at all times). It has loads of info on the safe operation of your vehicle, various types of gearboxes, tacho's etc and offers advice on how all of these operate. Subjects like first aid, driving hours, accident management etc are also included and all together provides a very useful source of information for old and new drivers. Excellent section at the rear with info on truck stops. At this price, an absolute must for anyone in the driving profession.

5.0 out of 5 stars spend a little, get a LOAD of info., 19 Nov 2006
By Darren G. Farrell "happy trucker" (uk (somewhere)) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
having been a hgv driver for qute a few years, i've read an awful lot of literature regarding every aspect of our difficult job.
it's good to see haynes bringing this book out as i feel it will be such a good tool for new drivers and also old hands alike.
what i am impressed with is the final section of the book giving truckstops and what services are available throughout the country (inc. ireland). well done haynes !!!!!
