From what I can see it looks like a carrier unit on the trailer and I bet they choose not to go with the bluetooth connection system .. but they do exist in the states.
By 3 years the trucks are beaten up and worn out,68 plates I have driven have panels missing, bits hanging off the dash, oil on the beds, utter shambles.
WS Transportation is a different company that was started by William Stobart and his son Edward Stobart (Jr), the "Edd Stobart" that passes his HGV Class 2 and then Class 1 tests later in this series. William left Eddie Stobart in 2017 but went back in 2019 to help them out I think.
There are many spotters for alot of trucks around the UK and Europe not just for stobart but stobart is the only truck company where all vehicles are named
@@kingsleyhealey1731 I know about emergency vehicle spotters as i myself was photographed in my own ambulance once in Belgium. Ans supercar spotters. I guess there are spotters for all types of vehicles. Thx for the response , after a year one forgot i even posed this question ...
Once you’ve worked for stobarts it dawns on you very quickly just how false the company is, that said there not alone the transport industry is a hard place to earn a reasonable living mainly because of very long hours and shift rotas. Stobarts try to come across as all is great within the company , when in actual fact it couldn’t be further from the truth
But that's what the industry is like Ed, In Aussie trucks and trailers are loaded to the max , they even have to be careful with fuel tanks ,, lots have 6 tanks over a 1000 lt
I LOVE SCANIAS FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE. SCANIAS ARE MY FAVORITE. SCANIA IS MY #1 FAVORITE & NO OTHER MANUFACTURER CAN'T BEAT MY #1 FAVORITE. SCANIAS IS MY NICKNAME
A little over dramatic I think, I chose the transport industry as a second career, first trucks and now I've moved abroad buses. It's not all burger n chips either, out here you are actively encouraged to eat healthily. Great job tho!

30:09 when did ross kemp become a crane operator?
I'm surprised that, in this day and age, that the drivers can't check the temp of the trailer from the cab.
From what I can see it looks like a carrier unit on the trailer and I bet they choose not to go with the bluetooth connection system .. but they do exist in the states.
bear in mind this was in 2011 and things might have changed since then
They can, if they chose to install the technology. They can monitor temperatures remotely such as on the dispatchers computer
Tbf he probly can most rerailers wont use the in cab for there paperwork so some drivers dont use them either
This is ten years old. That would have been much more difficult to do in those days.
39:10 So much for 3 points of contact hehe.

I love stobart truckers
No stobert's at Peterborough truck show this year. Wonder why???
There were so WS trucks which is the same company I think

Also they may of not wanted to go this year because of covid
I used to pull triple trailers in Oregon US 105.5 ft long. Road train? Todd the retired trucker.
Why do they wash then de wrap? Surely they will need to wash again after de wrapping
They've interviewed the only employees who can speak English.
now now paul, wouldn't call some of that English!
what does smellness mean?
Amazing Keep on doing these videos
I have to ask , is it only for Stobart that there are spotters or also other companies ? Are there other UK based transport Co. that name the trucks ?
There are many spotters for alot of trucks around the UK and Europe not just for stobart but stobart is the only truck company where all vehicles are named

Wouldn’t you think there would be a buy back agreement at the time of purchase
Thought they would lease the lot anyway
70k £ for a new truck.. that is steep price for a new unit .. that is a COE sleeper with a tag axle
Bridges benares ! Public be fearful ! These boys mean business.
So they just let the spotter onto the yard…wow
Rates of pay arnt very competitive
