certain what effect the WorkingTime Directive (WTD) will have on the transport industry.
You have drivers who believe a substantial pay rise is imminent. Others believe the regulations and current rates of pay will make HGV driving a non-viable option. On the other hand! have heard tales of employers brainwashing drivers that the regulation "won't affect us. as it is only with regard to driving time".
These desperate employers will always disown anyone working illegally — they always have, and they cannot he seen to condone such behaviour.
Yet they all, without exception, push drivers to the limits.! have driven all my working life-28 years—and have plenty of experience of them all and all their practices.
