Enjoy your stuff. Did years carting fuel in triples in Aus. This brings back memories of truckin into places a triple shouldn't be . No harder or easier than what you are doing though. Plenty of those moments where you don't breath . Keep up the good work young fella.

@@Truckersteve14 My first “big” job, 50 years ago at the age 19 was taking a A train, a 33’ semi with a little 18’ dog trailer on the back, from Gisborne to Auckland, and trying to back into the loading bay with everyone outside on smoko. After stuffing it up numerous times and spending ages finally getting it in the forklift driver said we normally push those trailers in with the forklift but we enjoyed the show!

Auckland drivers break my brain. I like to drive fast and have spent ages building up my car etc. I'm always trying to be courteous, keep with the traffic flow, let people merge etc and give it a good thrash at times I choose to be ok. Meanwhile every Aucklander will do 70 in a 50 without looking or indicating then sit at 95 in the fast lane oblivious to a growing tail behind them. People need to just chill and work together in the road. Driving isn't always fun but we can at least all go home with no hassles. Oh, Auckland tailgating freaks me out like bro, you're inside of your reaction time so you WILL hit something before you even realise sh!t has gone wrone, phones mounted blocking prime windscreen real estate too. Jeez I'm sounding old lol

Yes, but you likely won’t need it. There's a legal 13-hour work limit unless exceptions apply. Depending on the company, you’ll probably start early, complete deliveries, return to the depot, and drive home before hitting the limit. If you want longer hours, logging is an option, though it’s mostly controlled by Chinese companies.
