This is what I do except in the US. I'm not a driver but do the coordinating of drivers, permit, escorts, etc. I also handle AA&E which is ammunition, arms and explosives. My company also handles movement of military vehicles as well. You name it we have moved it.

Here's mine [I'm a cleaner of one of these amongst other things] ..



@Kapitan; the joys of working for the Council ?!

UP = 3 brand spanking new Refuse Vehicles

DOWN = Cutting our wages [or at least trying to !]
