Getting pulled over by the DVSA is never a fun experienceβthe heart starts pumping and the adrenaline kicks in every single time! [00:16] In this video, I take you along as I get summoned into the bait for a full inspection, including maintenance, load, and tacho checks. [02:15] Last time I was at the Carlisle (Todd Hills) checkpoint, things didn't go so well, and I ended up with a fine for being overweight on an axle. [05:13] This time around, I was determined to see a different result. What happens in this video: β’ The Inspection: Watch as the officers check the truck and trailer over the pit and download my tacho card. [02:15] β’ The Result: Iβll share the feedback I got on my maintenance and whether or not I managed to secure that elusive "Green Light." [05:42] β’ The Importance of OCR: I explain why these stops are actually a good thing for my operator's license "credit check" when everything is in order. [09:13] β’ Dealing with Gossip: Addressing the rumors that my lorry was impounded (spoiler: it definitely wasn't!). [10:48] Being an owner-operator is a constant learning curve. My advice to anyone getting pulled? Be polite, be respectful, and keep your kit in top shape. It makes the whole process much smoother!

Iβm so pleased you got the pass by the dvsa itβs so good to see you with a massive smile keep her lit drive safe travels π€ π€
Crazy i was just watching your DVSA video this morning and this one popped up. Glad all went well.
Makes you feel good when you do get the all clear and a good OCR score, hard work paying off
Wouldn't expect anything else other than a green light from the Tug in
Well Done ππ» Onwards & Upwards ππ» Let the haters hate
Great result fella, keep on trucking πͺπΌππΌ
I don't understand why people enjoy watching people fail. SAD WORLD WE LIVE IN π‘ well done on the green light nobody deserves it more ππΌ ππΌ
big up sandy!! love that everything went okay in the check!
Loving the videos as always, better the tucker dim. You show real life trucking and the struggles that come with it
Really pleased for you Sandy. If anyone deserved a green light itβs you.
The relief shown in your face buzzing dude π
Well done Sanders!
Green was never in doubt. Plus youβre 100% right, treat people with respect and civility and that will get you a long way. Being polite and owning my cock ups has got me out of a few scrapes especially with the traffic police in my time π¬
Well done Sandy, your hard work does pay off in the end ...... keep truckin π
Well done sandy for passing
Well done for the clear check
Cracking video Sandy. Glad everything went well with your dvsa check's. A weigh lifted of your shoulders
Well done on the all clear and 100% being nice when itβs hard is probably the best way to deal with things as a heating engineer itβs like dealing with gassafe you just got to be nice and not kick off or they just make your life miserable Good for all the people that help and support you too like the truck mechanics and admin people My gran had a saying be nice to everyone on the way up cause you donβt know who you will meet on the way down Safe travels from one Sandy to another
I flashed you yesterday on the 74 heading north it was nice to see you on the road keep your head up as your everything correct and there will be plenty of people to kick you down but you must be doing it right as your making a name for yourself FOFB bring back out the Irish style hat could do with refresher hat plz
Great success
