They changed the training program compared to the one agreed back in 2000. The whole driver mentor thing
Had a driver been rostered specifically for the job on Thursday there would not have been a problem. That was the normal case
A large amount of the training requires the trainees to sit with a driver and simply watch and learn the road thats the biggest part of the training course, however a driver has the right to operate alone, indeed in the UK recently trained drivers are not allowed to have someone with them. The practical drive under supervision is actually a very small part of the job
