I can't stop laughing. The shortage of HGV drivers is a myth. There are plenty of drivers, there just aren't enough prepared to work for peanuts, ie minimum wage AND be treated by everyone like they have just stepped in something nasty. Try looking at a few HGV drivers' fora to see what the job is really like. It wouldn't keep you in peaked caps.
