It's Not That You Can't Remember. It's That Nobody Put It in Order for You.

You've read the break rule three times: 45 minutes, or 15 and then 30. You close your notes...

...and the next morning you're not sure if it was 15 then 30 or the other way round, or whether daily driving is 9 hours or 10. It was just one paragraph after another.

Sole trader, partnership, Ltd and LLP side by side: liability, signatures and insolvency

Here breaks, driving and rest are drawn as blocks on a 24-hour clock: 4.5 hours, then the break; 9 hours, or 10 twice a week; 11 hours' rest, or 9 when reduced.

And on the pages next to it every topic has its own: the haulage contract, drivers' hours, the four tachographs, the O-licence and axle weights.

First you understand why it works that way. Then the order stays with you on its own.

SEE THE DIFFERENCE

Stop memorising rules you can't picture:

THIS
  • Pages and pages of cramped text
  • Rules without a single drawing
  • In the exam, you don't know where to start
A contract for the carriage of goods by road is formed where an offer made by one party is met by an unqualified acceptance of that offer by the other, supported by consideration and by an intention to create legal relations. The parties concerned comprise the consignor, who delivers the goods for carriage; the carrier, who undertakes to convey them; and the consignee, to whom delivery is to be made, each of whom may acquire rights and obligations under the contract and under any conditions of carriage incorporated therein.
FOR THIS
  • Every rule drawn
  • One topic per page, with the rules in boxes
  • You remember it because you've seen it
Offer, acceptance, consideration and intention, plus consignor, carrier and consignee, drawn on one page.

What If Every Topic Fit on a Single Page?

Imagine this:

Instead of rereading half a page on daily rest without being able to picture it...

...you open the page and find regular, reduced and split rest drawn as blocks on a 24-hour clock.

Analogue, digital, smart 1 and smart 2 in one row, plus the 2025 and 2026 deadlines

And breaks, tachographs, the O-licence, axle weights and cost per mile turn into drawings and tables you can read at a glance.

You stop learning it by rote and start understanding it.

That's exactly what The Transport Manager CPC Sketchbook does. It isn't “just another manual”. It's 11 parts and 62 drawn topics, and at the end the frequent mix-ups, a case study method and an exam day checklist. Because what you see in order, you remember.

Because what your brain sees organised, it remembers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I receive it?

By email, as a high-resolution PDF, to read on your phone or print. The two free books, 250 TM CPC Terms on Cards and the Drivers' Hours and Rest Poster, come by email too.

Is it a monthly or a one-off payment?

A one-off payment of US$ 27 for the book and the two free books. No instalments and no subscription. At checkout you'll see some optional extras; they're only added if you tick them.

Who is it for?

For anyone preparing for the Transport Manager CPC in road haulage (goods vehicles) in Great Britain: drivers moving into the office, traffic planners, small haulage owners and anyone resitting. It isn't a beginner's book: if you already know the hours from the cab, you'll find the whole syllabus from the operator's side, including the O-licence, costing, contracts and a method for the case study. It doesn't cover the passenger (PSV) exam, Northern Ireland or EU-only rules. Have a look at the index above to see every topic.

What sources is it based on?

Assimilated Regulation (EC) 1071/2009 Annex I (the TM CPC syllabus), Regulation (EC) 561/2006 and the tachograph rules as they apply in Great Britain (assimilated law), the Transport Act 1968 for GB domestic rules, the Road Transport (Working Time) Regulations 2005, the DVSA Guide to Maintaining Roadworthiness and DVSA load securing guidance, with fees and deadlines taken from gov.uk. Where a figure can change, like a fee, the page tells you where to check the current one on gov.uk.

Is it official material?

No. It's an independent study book. It isn't produced or endorsed by DVSA, the Traffic Commissioners, CILT(UK) or any awarding body, and it doesn't give you a certificate: the TM CPC certificate only comes from your awarding body.

Does it replace my course or training provider?

No. It complements your course: it puts each topic on one drawn page so you can revise it in the same order every time.

Are the practice questions the real exam questions?

No. Everything in the book and the cards is written for this book; none of it is an official exam question. The book has worked examples and the cards test you on 250 terms; the 200 practice questions come in the optional Practice Sets you can add at checkout. Use them alongside your provider's mock papers.

Can I print it?

Yes. It's an A4 PDF: you can print the whole book or just the pages you want to keep beside your desk.

And if I don't like it?

30-day guarantee: tell us what didn't work and we'll refund 100%.

One Last Thing Before You Decide...

You don't have to reread the same page hoping that this time it sticks.

You don't have to memorise rules you can't picture.

And you certainly don't have to walk into the exam not knowing where to start.

There's a simpler way. And it's one click away. Now it's your turn.
