    I have always been told avoid parking lay byes especially A1 Yorkshire area if dodgy peaple are driving around in the middle off the night where's the police patrols They're not interested in truck crime industrial estates are now double yellow lined they want your deliveries but they don't want you parked there overnight in well lit area's a few years ago I remember parking in a lay bye scotch corner police patroled that night we all got parking tickets😂

      Back in 1998 - 2006, I was Ops and Night Security Manager at the Truckworld Truckstop in Essex. Even on our forecourt area where we parked up oversized or overlength trucks, we'd get visits from cars or pick-ups in the early hours, with people snooping around. My policy was always to intervene and stand up to these scumbags and the support we had from Essex Police then was superb. Yes, we were successful in catching these crooks.
      I also liaised closely with TruckPol, then run by the Met Police which collated data about thefts of and from trucks across the UK and through my connections, knew that the A1 along its entire length especially from Huntingdon in the south right up through Lincolnshire and Yorkshire was notorious for fuel theft from trucks parked up overnight in the various laybys. Over the years though, budgetary cutbacks have meant Police Forces have reduced the number of Traffic officers who can cover all roads.

    Hi Jay, I live within 30 mins of the A1 and it's notorious for diesel theft as the gangs use 4x4s to drive across fields. Someone relatively close by was jailed for 3 years for a spate of thefts. Its a nightmare for robberies that road. Great video and keep up the good work! 👍🏻

    It is so irritating. This is one of many reasons why I am leaving the industry. I’m about to start my last week trucking after 9 years and before I was in the army. But equally excited and nervous due I’m starting my own business and also moving. Personally I think the transport industry and those who support it need Massive reforms. But I have no regrets and I’m glad I had became a Trucker but time for a change.
