Hilux Vehicle Accident 130114 • An Initial and potential lesson to learn from the investigation to date is that consideration hadn't been taken by the local management team to assist the new and young driver with becoming familiar with commercial vehicles. • The drivers handbook for all Network Rail Drivers expects apprentices and drivers unfamiliar with commercial vehicles to be assisted where necessary. • Please take time to read the hand book and the useful information that is available on the companies intranet site. • https://www.nr-nds.co.uk/roadfleet/driving/driver-training/ • Please use the guidance and help available to help keep our drivers safe.
