My understanding is this: HGV brakes operate on compressed air as I am sure you know, however the brakes are spring loaded which means rather than applying the brakes, the air pressure is what keeps them OFF, so when the system runs out of air the brakes will lock on solid. when you are driving and you push the brake pedal what is happening is that the pedal valve is shutting off the supply of air to the brake chambers and the friction material (either shoes or pads) is drawn by spring pressure towards the disc or drum.
Yes you can by my understanding the DVLA say as long as the hgv is fitted with the needed hand controls then no prob however to find a training provider to get the needed paper work is another thing as of yet i can not find any training centers with a hgv with a fully auto box. let alone one that can provide a hand conttrol hgv.

Both "an HGV driver" and "a HGV driver" can be considered grammatically correct depending on the pronunciation of the acronym "HGV." If the acronym is pronounced with a vowel sound at the beginning (such as "aych-gee-vee"), then "an HGV driver" is appropriate. If the acronym is pronounced with a consonant sound at the beginning (such as "aitch-gee-vee"), then "a HGV driver" would be more suitable. It is important to consider pronunciation when determining the correct use of "a" or "an" before acronyms.
slowly push it along then pull the brakes, if it stops, THE BRAKES WORK!!! if it keeps going, THE BRAKES DON'T WORK!!! IT'S ROCKET SCIENCE!!!

HGV insurance, also known as Heavy Goods Vehicle insurance, is for vehicles that weigh more than four tons. Although HGV insurance is conventional to other insurances, in order to drive an HGV, drivers must follow stricter rules while on the road and must obtain a specialized license.
There are several employment agencies in the UK that advertise HGV jobs available. Online websites such as Reed, Total Jobs, Indeed and Gumtree are just a few that often advertise jobs for HGV Driving.
