Mr Ken Worth forgot something in the log book. You have to fill in the earlier page that asks for the name and address of the place where the filled in pages will be filed. I have been fined for not filling that part in once and maybe twice.

If a rest stop is full. Take a photo it’s better evidence. Just writing it in your book is not enough.

Good video and don't mean to be picky, but your vertical lines go all the way up and down whereas in the book itself it only shows the vertical lines between the two different activities. Myself I prefer to rule lines between the activities, it looks much neater but the question is if the book shows not to go all the way up and down, should it be done? I ask this as a trainer because this question will come up in class as sure as eggs!

I see a lot of dangerous driving driving home after work ( B doubles very close to backs of cars ) ( 6 meters away at 100 km start of m1 over the hill before the turn off for Berowra )) I think these are drivers trying to make it back to the depot before they go over their hours after hold ups in waiting lines at depots or traffic, truck driving is random and the white collar aspect is very precise, This is the way I was told to do it by the officer at MT white I think it is called, After my small amount of experience going north to do impossible deliveries I don't rely want to do long distance any more I would rather just mull around the city suburbs although waiting in lines to be unloaded at Bunnings for 1.5 - 3 hours is a drag, runs to Canberra is where it's at, btw I don't know if there is a law about you cant pass a truck if it is going to pass you down the road ( up hills ) or you can't hold up a B double in the slow lane ( I am not a fast driver ) am I supposed to move into the middle lane and let the truck pass in the left lane
