  • how to use the speedometer disc

    Hello you here, have always driven trucks even dump truck Cat up to total weight 100 t. But I have not been driving in public traffic for more than 25 years. Some things have changed since then. Now I am a pensioner and want to earn (must) something more. At 50 years I have not extended the certificate class II any more. So that I have only the class III. So I opened a car trailer rental, and offer myself as a helper for trucks`s up to 7.5 t. Can sometimes In a small business someone gets sick. But especially on the sector Tacho disk a lot has changed. We had to have at that time 3 tacho disks in the car, and the storage obligation was one year. If the police found more than 3 disks in the car they were taken with them for inspection. If one did not carry a travel book, the disks had to be carried for a week. Since the km stand had to be registered as well as the date as well as the driver’s name was the complete vehicle b However, I did have to sort out what would have changed here. Many answers were here, but they don’t fit me. I drive only as a self-employed person for a company one or two days, against invoice. So if I come on the device for the first time, I can only present the windows that I drove myself. But not the 15 – 20 windows of the movement of the truck. Here I became particularly attentive to a question of a tow truck, which the car m It shared other colleagues and the Östickers wanted to have 20 of them. I can only show my windows. Even for data protection reasons. So you notice I have to catch up with some things, who can help or how can I find out something without going back to school.

  • Livestock transport vs. containers

    Hello people, I have the choice at the moment, I could get a job in long-distance transport live cattle transport or, for a little less money, a job in long-distance transport container transport.. But both serious companies, new trucks, driving times etc. are kept as far as possible etc.. So both actually good jobs, halt quite different fields of activity.. What do you say? Dear stables rattle and drive cattle, constantly wash trucks ( inside), or drive containers, but a bit more pressure less physical work and no small farms? What is better for a beginner?

  • Driver card in the workshop

    Hello, I am Azubi (professional driver) in a forwarding company and work there for the time being in the workshop. I now have 3weeks my CE driver’s license. My question is: I should bring several trucks from our workshop to another workshop about 10 km away (guarantee) but have not yet applied for a driver’s card. Otherwise the master always drives himself but he is sick (he always drives without a driver’s card to the workshop) How can I drive? at the beginning to get fines. Greet Zerox1986

  • You’re allowed to drive on Sundays?

    hello, I would like to transport something with a sprinter and a hanger behind it on Sunday. both is the property of my company. however, my boss is the opinion that I am not allowed to drive with it (on Sundays) that somehow would have done something with commercial vehicles…more precisely he could not tell me…. I would not exceed the 3.5t and of course use a tacho disc! is it allowed or not? mfg

  • Driver card and transfer after purchase of a used truck

    Hello, I have a few questions when you need a ticket for the transfer: We buy a truck with DigiTacho which is still registered to the last owner. (I think here you need one) The same truck with red dealer number (I think here you don’t need one) A 3.5t with DigiTacho which is still registered, but the driver has the old 3r (I don’t think because driver card is mandatory) The same car with red number can however drive the driver. right here ? Greetings Peter

Surely I know that there are yellow adhesive foils but I would prefer the covers. So if one or other tip has advice or lnk be sure to thank him/her. mfg Carlson_v_D

  • Truck overtakes truck

    I don’t want to attack a truck driver with this question, this is only a short way forward. But why is there almost no truck driver who, if he is overtaken and the overtaking person does not pass quickly, just a few seconds of the gas goes and leaves it? OK, I understand that you don’t go off the gas when it goes uphill, but it should be fine with a slight gradient, right? Especially there the overtaking processes sometimes drag themselves into the infinite, even if between the LK If you don’t even have space for you to slip in and then you have to overtake several at once. And if one of them arrives from behind and wants to overtake, then he’s also on the road faster in total so the excuse would be that everyone would overtake because the other one doesn’t have to go off the gas either. So again this shouldn’t be an attack, I would just be interested if there are reasons for this or if it’s because of convenience or the like? Thanks for the answer.

  • Daimler vs. electrified motorways

    The truck producer Daimler thinks overhead lines on motorways are nonsense. Mercedes no longer wants to participate in this pilot project. “There is already a similar system for freight transport with overhead lines, which works very well: it’s called Deutsche Bahn,” said a Daimler spokesman of the newspaper Die Welt. The whole report on this is available at https://www.heise.de/…/…ellt- sich-gegen-Oberleitungen-4400894.html

  • Black smoke and no performance on MB 814, what is the error?

    Hello, I hope that I can find a resourceful RATGEBER here, the workshops are apparently overwhelmed with it, grrr. I have an MB 814 Bj 92, it has always run flawlessly. After a stop and another start he suddenly had no more power, he drives only 50 km/h and smokes extremely black. I first thought it was the fuel filter, new—– then new air filter, also no improvement. In the workshop then diesel pumps test and also the injection nozzles were tested and are ok—-tja only running he does not to this day. Who knows then?????—–I have read something about a flame starter, can it be that he gets too much diesel over it in case of defect and therefore so smokes and does not pull? I assume that he gets too much diesel in relation to the amount of air, must also be as the engine gets quite hot. Would really be great if I could get some information here, am already despairing. Thank you very much in advance.
