I TEACH THE Driver CPC at my husband's haulage business. I started in September 2009 and things have gradually got busier. I did my training to deliver CPC through the Road Haulage Association.
There has been a lot of negative press surrounding the Driver CPC, drivers don't want to do/pay for it. For companies it is seen as another expense, and as a haulier I thought the same.
However, it has given us the opportunity to instruct drivers on EU driver hours, tachograph rules and regulations, especially digital, and show drivers exactly what their responsibilities are. I also run a first aid course.
The press has a part to play in informing drivers of the positives, not always the negatives, of training. Samantha Bradley Address withheld by request
