Nice story. I am in my 40s and even with glasses can barely pass the eyesight test for a HGV licence. And here's a fella nearly twice my age still going strong.

Go Henry.
Unusual for an 80 year old truck driver to pass a medical let alone an eyesight test.
Thats what keeps him young.

I don't think I've ever come across someone driving a bottle or articulated truck in their 70s never mind 80. Some man for one man. Hope he gets a few years out of it.

I read the title as the driver bought Volvo and I was thinking that Geely sold it.

I have mixed feelings about this as AFAIK an airline pilot, train driver etc. would not be allowed to continue working past a mandatory retirement age - he is after all driving a lethal vehicle. Just a thought - don't shoot me.
