The Truck table is used to record information about the Trucks that you use.

 

Record licencing information to help you ensure you are using licenced Trucks and that those Trucks are not loaded beyond what they can legally carry.

 

You can store images to help identify Trucks and Drivers.

 

A column name shown in red indicates that a value is required for that column.
