Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

Rikki Chequer, community manager of the popular drivers' website TruckNet UK, reviews the past weekwith smoking and training just two of the hot topics.

The problems at Taymix have received lots of coverage on Roadtransport.com and TruckNet UK, as well as in CM, with one ex-employee posting on TruckNet UK in defence of the company.

The smoking ban how are you getting on? Drivers who smoke at work in Wales and Scotland give English smoker drivers some hope, to the scorn of the non-smoking fraternity.

The benefits of training are discussed, with one driver recounting his experiences at the MercedesBenz UK driver training centre. It seems that even the most experienced drivers can improve journey times and fuel consumption with a little help from the manufacturer's driver trainers. Owner-drivers have been discussing the merits or otherwise of sole trader vs limited company trading: most contributors said they prefer not to go the limited company route.

Finally, a member of the East Coast Truckers Club reminds usersof TruckNetUKthatthe second annual Crowfield Truck Rally is being held on 26-27 May at Crowfield near Stowrnarket, Suffolk. The rally raises funds for the East Coast Truckers Club, a charity supporting underprivileged and handicapped children.

This is just a snippetof the many discussions and debates going on at TruckNet UK To read more, or to have your say, visit www.TruckNetUK.com
