Large junctions and busy approaches make calm lane planning, good separation and clear mirror checks important. These are general driving skills; an airport job may also involve separate site access procedures.
Luton’s neighbourhood roads can combine parked vehicles, pedestrians, buses and delivery activity. An HGV driver needs to leave space for vulnerable road users and assess whether there is enough room to complete a turn. Plan a suitable approach to the customer entrance before moving away from the main road.
