What's even worse is when they don't wear gloves then drive with greasy/dirty hands. While I'm at it roll the #### window up when your done. There's a pro.
Who wears gloves WHILE driving?

1) For P+D, yes i and alot of other drivers here wear gloves, specifically these:

Light enough so that you can feel everything, yet thick enough to offer decent protection.
For P+D we are often out of the truck and handling all sorts of freight, pallet jack and handtruck, liftgate latches etc. Hence the gloves. Me and a lot of drivers simply leave them on all day so as to not have to keep taking em off and putting em on etc.
2) As far as the vest, we are required to have it on whenever were at a terminal or unloading in traffic or other hi-risk situation. Technically we are not supposed to have them on while driving or at a customer or otherwise in public, but it gets so busy sometimes.................. -
Only driving gloves , track suit and Jerusalem cruzers for me !
