    I have a querie, im currently on my 45+ comp, i'll drive on sat, but not on sunday, then again on monday, itll be about a 27hr break from sat- sunday 00:00, then 9hrs from then to when i drive, is that 27hr break automatically logged as a reduced weekly rest? Because i need to take RWR later in the week to make it to a drop, and not 45hr. Is it if i take 2 rwr in a row, on 2 separate weeks have to also take a 45hr in the same weekas the 2nd one?

    Done mine today and after 4 hours i walked, got stressed.! Id had enough 3 hours in..Went in for test and i fucked it..needed 2 shunts ro get straight. . Fucked that up. So walked of the test! Didnt get taught this way. I got taught to full lock right and look out for the yellow plate on the rear of trailor..Then full lock it other way driving down the yellow line. At this point im going across the rd waiting to get striaght but im miles out..all over the pllace trying to get it back into the yellow box!.This way seems so easy to do.

    Just passed my 3a today and am finding these videos great refreshers as it completely bashed my brains in and I've forgotten half of it 🤣Throughout my learning and exam they had me lowering and raising the suspension on the unit to get under the trailer. Complete pain in the backside and confused me so much as it wasn't included in any of the learning material or BLACK. This little black remote control just came out of nowhere.

  • @2KXMKR
    @2KXMKR 2 місяці тому

    Just passed my 3a, reversing and un/re-coupling, after around four hours training this morning and came here to refresh everything. It's really interesting you guys put on a full right lock on. They had me coming back in a gentle arch after straightening up across the line after the first turn. I was still straightening up as my trailer was coming into the cone bay and found it dead awkward as I could see bugger all out of the near side mirror. Lining up with just one mirror was just no good. Definitely needed one shunt! This way looks like you have much more room to correct lining up as you're coming back. The truck was an absolute dog as well. MAN. Really difficult to tell if the thing was parked straight without the trailer on. Felt like I was driving a shoe that's two sizes too small!

    • @2KXMKR
      @2KXMKR Місяць тому

      At the beginning of the test you would do an all-round vehicle check, including the trailer. Because the trailer has already been checked the examiner will be happy as long as you just mention doing a walk-around trailer check and asking them to check your lights during this exercise.

    It sounds easy in the video but in theory tests, they can ask for confusing calculations. Here is a typical question from a Theory Test: "Martin arrives at work in the morning to find that John, the FLT driver, has already started loading his vehicle with pallets of cardboard. Martin will be driving to Inverness, a journey which should take about 6 hours driving each way. He will leave the depot at 7 am. He is driving an 18 tonne curtain-sided vehicle. 1- What time will Martin have to stop driving for a required break under EU Regulation EC 561/2006 assuming he started work at 6:45 am?" 2- What is the maximum daily driving time under EU Regulation EC 561/2006? 3- Which of the following does Martin NOT need to enter on an analogue tachograph? a)Start date b)MPW of vehicle c)Any other duties that may have been completed before taking over this vehicle d)Vehicle registration number e)Start and end place f)Driver name

    • @cyborgbadger1015
      @cyborgbadger1015 22 дні тому

      so you add 4.5 hrs to the start time of 7 am. That's when your break needs to be taken.

  • @Paul1984kwon

    Hello, I am struggling with the reverse exercise, have failed my test today . I have been told to do a full right lock until seeing the black mark on the trailer and then a full left lock slowly moving backwards to straighten the cabin with a trailer ,but that seems to put the trailer at such sharp angle And basically puts the front right wheel right on the yellow line or almost over, so I am stressing between going over the yellow line without seeing anything and not understanding my positioning relatively to the cone I am suppose to go around by the time I see the cone I have very little room left to direct the trailer into the parking bay and give it the correct angle and no room for a mistake at all when it comes to steering … Seeing instructors do it with ease puts even more pressure 🤣 thanks for the video!

    • @westyy5387
      @westyy5387 2 місяці тому

    • @2KXMKR
      @2KXMKR 2 місяці тому

      I just passed today and had the exact same problem at first. The instructor explained I was reversing too fast and steering too slow, so I was using up way too much space to turn the wheels. Once you see that first mark slow the truck right down to a crawl and throw on those two left turns to straighten up. Really throw them hands around! From there it's dead easy. It's keeping that right wheel away from the line that's the hard part.

      I dont believe so. It says you have to take 30 minutes of total rest if you work 6-9 hours. so if you work longer than 9 hours I dont think you have to take 30 minutes rest within 9 hours of work, you just have to take 45 minutes throughout the shift or in the middle of the shift
