  Hi everyone
  Can someone please explain to me if I were to drive 12 hrs from 12 am to 12 pm I am aware that I have to take a break 2 times 15 mins and 1 time 30 mins. Therefore in the 12 period 12 hrs I work only be able to work for 11 hrs. Is that correct? Thanks

  Is truck driving a profession that can offer a steady income for a family man?

    Yes, if you do it well, and you start knowing what you’re heading into. It means long hours and more often than naught several days away from home. In Australia a lot of the goods are transported by road transport, and there’re plenty of jobs. You must remember, though that you have 2 big risks: road hazards and with 3 tickets you lose your license, which is no joke… also, it can be tough on the family…
