Syv værktøjer fra teori til vejen — for elever, chauffører og vognmænd.

Work it out.

The stopping distance is the reaction distance plus the braking distance: S = v·t_r + v²/(2·µ·g), with g = 9.81 m/s². Choose speed, reaction time and road conditions — then you see how far you travel before coming to a stop.

Example · Stopping distance

Truck · dry asphalt

Estimate
Speed (v)85 km/t
Reaction time (t_r)1 s
Friction (µ)0,8
Reaction distance≈ 24 m
Braking distance≈ 36 m
Stopping distance≈ 59 m

How it looks craftsmanship.

Tre arbejdsgange fra chaufførens hverdag — tegnet som blueprint: pallelæsning, top-over-surring og dagligt eftersyn.

Truck loaded with pallets

The driver operates the forklift with fully raised forks and stacks the pallet over the truck's open loading deck where two pallets already stand. The movement arrow shows the stacking and the securing eyes along the load edge await the cargo straps afterward.

Strapping of Load with Tensioning Straps

The driver tightens three top-over cargo straps over the load and secures them in eyes at both load edges. The scrap tension indicator on the middle strap is tightened and the tension indicator changes to tight — the actual number of cargo straps is calculated in the load securing calculator.

Daily inspection — brakes and tyres

Before departure the driver checks the twin rear wheels with a tire pressure gauge and inspects tread and pressure. The checklist verifies tires, brakes, lights, and fluids with checkmarks — a routine that catches faults before the vehicle rolls out.

One question

The AI assistant can count breaks, explain weight rules, calculate stopping distance and help with load securing. Write to it as you would to a colleague on site.
