There's no magic answer to that Claire.The main aim of the driver is to get as close as possible to the pick up/drop off point, so that you cut down the amount of time you are in the open and open to attack.I think the vans these days have the doors at the back, that would make it easier to get close to buildings etc.When you've driven one of these vans for a while, you'd be surprised at the spaces you can actually get them into.I remember Paddington station used to be a particular challenge getting along the platforms without falling over the edge, especially if a train has just pulled in |
