  • Here we go again with another few snippets of a day on the road in a 32 ton grab lorry. Video was taken with a GoPro Hero3+ silver edition. In this vid i have included some other things like using the grab, reversing, tipping off and getting loaded by a shovel. I hope you enjoy! And please like and share!

    Fantastic, I really hope certain RUclips cyclists will watch this and see that driving a HGV in this environment is not easy and give us a bit of bloody credit and respect! Love the POV videos mate :)

    Just watching how Nick turns the steering whell with that steering ball, and squeeze into those tight London street is AWESOME. This is one good driving truck driver. I don't know how he does it. Skill, experience, training! Awesome!

    Great stuff. People might take more care about how they park seeing this. I like how the UK has stop lines set way back so trucks and buses can get around some corners. Good insight to a day in the life of a truck driver. Thanks.

You have to watch EVERYTHING^^ suddenly turning off cars, bike-rider, pedestrians and Car-driver they didn't know what to do if^^ And with an quad Axis..., you have sooo a huge turning circle. Great Video. Impressive. Well done. All times good drive!

    • @EezeeListen
      @EezeeListen 7 лет назад +1

      Nick Surty Not yet, but I shall hopefully look at all of your vid's soon. I appreciate good video's and especially like good driving - I used to be a tour coach driver, worked for Epsom Coaches and then Wallace Arnold. I moved over to Ireland about 10 years ago to drive as a relief driver but unfortunately very quickly got bad osteoarthritis affecting my hips and knees, so had to stop work and boy, do I miss it. Cant even climb the stairs now!! You never know what's round the corner (especially in London traffic!! LOL), so even though some of your days might be a bit stressful (although I think you have a good sense of humour and attitude to work), try not to take it all for granted. I am still keeping my CPC up to date (huh! my thoughts on the CPC yearly modules are not printable!) in the hopes that I might get the ok for new hips, but after an 8 year wait so far, don't think it is going to happen.

    • @nicksurty
      @nicksurty  7 лет назад

      Eezee Listen blimey small world lol. I dont live far from where Epsom coaches are. I live in Sutton. Thats a real shame about your health situation at the moment, i wish the best for you and that things get sorted sooner rather than later! Thanks for watching the other vid too, saw the comment. Yeah a lot of sidestreets in central can be a pain, i have been on the grabs now for nearly 6 years now so am kinda used to shitty situations lol. Also having class 1 helps.

Can anybody enlighten me?. Keep up the good work and drive safe.
