In this fact-packed, non-fiction title, young readers will join fuel tanker drivers on the road as they make deliveries to petrol stations. Driving a fuel tanker that carries enough liquid to fill 125 bathtubs is a skilful job. And when that liquid could catch fire and explode, there are lots of safety rules that every driver must follow. Readers will discover what it's like to drive a fuel tanker and how the drivers use long, heavy hoses to fill up huge, underground tanks with fuel. Packed with photos, this book is perfect for supporting work about the jobs people do.
