@@jacul3697 have seen many hgvs turn around at the main corner there (fork in the road). It is certainly not easy due to an unusual camber, low walls and generally unusual angles. Where this driver was trying to turn around is borderline impossible in a HGV as you can see!

Totally relate to this, especially when I was a new driver. Got lost, no help from control, seen red and done something risky. Park up and take a minute, although it looks difficult without blocking the road. 😢😢
Only Way Out of that was to Reverse back out and do a Blind Reverse back over the Bridge and then Reverse onto the Roundabout, Drivers will Stop or Ask for Assistance.
Don't ever be afraid to ask for help. If you're in a spot like this and an extra pair of eyes would help get out safely then find them. Sure that may seem embarrasing but it's better than wrecking the truck or the street.
@@harrygamer4190 Sadly this is likely to be the case. And anyone who is willing to help will probably be as much use as a chocolate fire guard, these days.
As a class 1 driver myself I feel for you buddy who ever you are. Sometimes you just need to bite the bullet and refuse a delivery or park up and walk it get a better look. Could have avoided a damaged house and nearly ripping the whole trailer off. Hope he’s still driving because he gave it a good attempt fair does 😂
He could have tried to back up onto that street. It's not even blindside turn, so, if there's enough space, he could do it. If there's no chance of doing that, then reversing back is the best option. Although, I don't know conditions of the road he would have reversing through
Don't judge the driver because we don't know if the he could reverse back without hindrance of other cars blockig him. I have also found myself in this kind of situation whereby it was the police that had to clear the way for me to reverse back because the car drivers in my back didn't want to. Sometimes, the so called Garmin map for truckers is misleading. In this kind of situation, i would advise that he should have called the police to help him control traffic so that he can reverse back even if he was given a ticket.
I cant belive he actually attempted to spin it 360° . Never in a million years was it gonna go . Piss poor driving . I'll guarantee his sat nav sent him there and he just followed blindly.
This is where the maths come in. That was never going to happen without damage to the lorry and property. The driver needed to assess this and work it out before forcing the issue. The property behind the trailer could have suffered structural damage this company is now liable for. He could have damaged the stone building on the right and caused body to chassis mounts to be ripped away on the fridge trailer. In my opinion this driver is either inexperienced or just a very poor judge of space Vs size of vehicle. It also raises his ability to read the road to start with IE why did he keep going up a road without stopping and researching it. Like another driver said on here, get out and have a look. Ask for help. Reverse to safety. If you are considering driving CE artics you must drop ALL car driver rabbits and step up to the plate . Do not attempt this sort of follow the sat nav blindly BS shocking driving... This is a car driver in this truck who has somehow got a CE licence and should not be out on the roads without a mentor in the passenger seat.
Also, given the clear complexity of the maneuver, they might want to consider slowing things down a wee bit. There's some pretty aggressive throttle work at play here!
No assistance from the drivers in waiting cars. An extra pair of eyes would have made a big difference to the guy. If your capable of giving clear guidance instructions without getting excited yourself you should always try help someone out in this situation
At least he went back and knocked on the door, ready to be a man and admit his mistake. Many could learn from this. Hard to see if he leaves a note or not. Hopefully he reported this to the insurance, and the house owner was covered! Personally I think I would have taken another approach to turning around, without knowing more of those streets than we see here. I would have gone further up the road, and tried to back down right, along that house he hit. Not sure it would work better, I have never driven semi/artic, but that would most likely be my first thought.
That was a hard one, Presuming that camera is on a wall I don't see why he did not come up closer to increase the the amount of room he had for the turn. I always found it easier to get out the cab and asses the situation before trying the manoeuvre. As we know some time their just is not enough room to complete a turn like that one.
@@ratreer1523Well, as I see it, he only hits once, when he gives it that extra nudge? Did I miss a point? But I would have gotten out and looked, long before that.
Stress, big vehicle and probably newbie behind wheel. GOAL, get out and look! If he foud way to get there, way back must be able (unless gate is closed behind him etc.), but sometimes much harder to do. Don't be afraid to ask for help if you need it.
Artic driver here in Ireland , That driver done his best in a bad situation and even had the decency to go back to the house he scraped, it happens ,the biggest vehicles on the road are more likely to have accidents. fact
He shouldn't have been sent in something that size, 7.5 tonne max for those streets. He tried to make contact with the householder to, presumably to do the right thing but the poor sod was doomed by his tansport manager before he even got into the wagon at the depot...
If he’d had just steered right instead of left he could of t boned it round and mounted the curb with enough clearance, but that takes many years of know how, we’ve all been there, I’ve taken many a bump and scrape learning, no trucker worth their weight hasn’t.
The top corner of the trailer hit the house pretty badly. Pushed in the brickwork and damaged the rendering substantially. Link to Google street view is here. maps.app.goo.gl/5CLGMMH4718VVLgQ7 insurance paid out.
The Driver panicked when he got into that situation he should have reversed out of the street but looking at his reversing in this video he is not very confident or know his angles as he was about to turn he should have realised that this road was unsuitable I have done this just wonder if this driver was following an ordinary sat nav and not a Truck one.
The worst part is the person who called this a fail and most that post these kinds of videos could never drive one of these and honestly I could feel this guy's pain watching this I was actually gutted for him
My observation was based on 40 yrs experience.Class 1.Fifteen of those on continent.I started when drivers helped each other.Not like the arsehxx I've seen in the last 10 years. Guessing you got 5 years under your belt
For those on here who've got the pedigree I go back to the good old days of the bomb boat out of Dover. The Pas de Calais.Was a frieghter free restaurant an no car drivers

We're there no humans happy ro help??? All siting behind curtain and watching? Plenty of space, just needs lost of shunting . Once in yard and stuck, I had to reverse over tram track and sunoly asked 2 bored police men to help . They were not brilliant , but netter than nothing😅
