DAF Trucks has launched its Transport Efficiency Driver Challenge 2018 to find the UK's best commercial vehicle driver.

Both DAF and non-DAF drivers are able to take part in the competition and, following a selection process, 20 of the best drivers will be set a series of challenges at a two-day finale at the Millbrook Proving Ground on May 19 and 20. 

The winner will be named the DAF Transport Efficiency Driver Champion 2018.

Drivers will be tested on:

• Driving style, performance and efficiency across different sizes of truck and driving conditions.
• Road knowledge, legislation and the Highway Code.
• Vehicle knowledge, defect reporting and pre-use checks.

Drivers may be nominated or enter themselves, though all are required to undertake an on-line questionnaire before the final shortlist is drawn-up.

Online entry will be available at www.daf.co.uk/thechallenge from Monday, February 12.

The challenge is open to any driver with a clean C+E Licence, a Driver Card and a Driver CPC.
