According to the RHA, nearly a quarter of professional drivers in Britain have been furloughed during the lockdown, and 46 percent of trucks were inactive. This means that many drivers haven’t driven much during the lockdown, and may be unsure what to expect when they get back to work.
There are some key things drivers need to know before they and their vehicle get back on the roads. Driving For Better Business has put together two short videos to help drivers get up to speed as quickly and safely as possible. One of the videos is for Driver Information: 12 essential things you need to know about life on the road after the COVID-19 lockdown. The other video is a comprehensive 20 point vehicle check that was developed in collaboration with Mercedes-Benz.
