Re: My client is waiting for OL to be determined and in the meantime is off to collect a truck they'll be using for it.

Can't see any reason why the truck could not be used to give the drivers a driving assessment as well. It is not being used for hire or reward either.
By driving the truck any problems could be highlighted prior to its use when licence is granted.

Re: What is the attraction of a paper map vs a Sat nav. I bought a truckers Atlas a year ago and have not used it once.

Well think back only 30 yrs. No mobile phones. No sat navs , just names of road/ streets. So you had to work out where Bath Rd Slough was. Or Liverpool Rd Manchester etc or vice versa Manchester Rd Liverpool.
Does it make sense. Even with sat navs you still need a bridge "map".

yes it comes with manual clip on mirrors as part of the original delivery when new
thought I'd dreamed it. 🤣
Maybe the last driver broke the clip on mirror and didn’t tell anyone, if you can’t find it 🤣🤣
at my place that's the norm,
Not the exception 🤣🤣🤣

Its not the pulling of the card at 5 Friday and then putting back in at 7 Monday (times may vary) its the lack of working time. I.E time walking back to office to hand in keys and paperwork in and time collecting keys and ...
