can I just ask how long you’ve been driving normal artics for and was it like 5 outta 7 or 4 on 4 of or tramping? I fancied the tankers when I took my class 1 as I’ve been on the tippers over 10yrs and even the trainer said get some experience first and meet ppl who may be able to help get ...

"Daily requests to come to work..." ?
That says "agency driver", some employers are averse to agency drivers, who sometimes have a very poor reputation.
"I want to get into the industry." first ...

FFS... THESE are YOUR words:

I have done my ADR for a second time but no company would hire me without PDP. How on earth do you acquire PDP if all the training sites only do the theory part of it. Please only those reply who actually know how to get a valid PDP in the UK.
