Rezensionen / Stimmen
"Now in its 45th edition, Lowe's Transport Manager's and Operator's Handbook is a comprehensive guide to the operational rules and guidelines. It includes details on professional competence, working times and driving hours rules, speed cameras and penalties and drugs testing for drivers. While it is aimed at goods operation, there are many common aspects of O-Licencing and compliance that cross into passenger operation and the book's clear layout and easy-to-follow text are to be commended. It is supported by a detailed contents list, comprehensive index and appendices." * Route One Magazine *
