Yet another fantastically interesting video I would have thought from a security angle to have a driver's mate or even your own personal bodyguard for dangerous and crime ridden areas as a matter of importance, Transport companies should take full liability and any incident is one too many.

Just come across your videos, watch a couple of English truck drivers, but I am enjoying your continental travels, I am a retired English truck driver now living in Australia, long way from Yorkshire, but no snow. Enjoy watching you load and unload and the travel, find something soothing about watching the road LOL must be the diesel in my blood. Love the fact you still drive a lorry not caught the american truck, 83 this year so this is mostly my hobby keep on lorry driving

To be honest, you’d think the vehicle manufacturers would do more to increase security for drivers when they are sleeping, I know DAF did a “night lock” that was a simple blot system that went from door into the door pillar, again simple but effective. I think it is/was an optional extra. I don’t know of any other companies doing anything.

Great video Sherralin, I really look forward to your vlogs. Top marks for your cab security probably better than what you used on the Daf. It’s just a shame that undesirable characters makes overnight stays so worrying. I thought the Volvo cab was fitted with a strong box to store valuables. If not maybe worth having a word with the boss to get one fitted, could even possibly get some reduction on the insurance premiums demonstrating proactive measures against such theft.

As a matter of truck safety there should be special tamper proof extra strong locks as a minimum in rough areas where there is crime where truckers are required to sleep GPS alarms CCTV cameras to alert the Police , air horn alarms and flood lighting may be also a deterrent I used to be the CEO of a security company so I know all this is possible . Where trucks are not fitted then it is possible for mobile security to be fitted and any cost is Income tax deductable and it can be sold on should you leave the profession What do you think please leave a comment .

@GBtrucklady

5 ай бұрын

I do think security should be better as standard on lorries. I’m sure, aftermarket systems are available but most drivers do not own their vehicles so these systems would be down to the companies, most would put profit first. I do think there should be more secure parking facilities available, no good just putting cameras up if no one is monitoring them but again it’s down to cost v profit. 😁
