If you’re a UK ex-forces service leaver or an HGV/LGV driver thinking about moving into fuel tanker work, this easy-to-read eBook and paperback shows you how to become a “highly trained and highly paid” petroleum tanker driver – and what you need to do to stay one.

The legal and statutory regulations you’ll be working under
