Приколы
Back in the late '70's, when I hired in at Schneider Transport, and the founder of the company, Mr. Al Schneider came to driver orientation to meet the newbies and talk about what he expected out of his drivers, one of his first comments was, "you hit a low bridge, you're fired. Remember, it takes less time to back away from a low bridge than it does to fill out an accident report." That stuck with me throughout my 42 year OTR career.
I’ve backed away from several that were marked wrong. Road had been surfaced. I GOT OUT AND LOOKED.
Hopefully, all these American trucking carriers are enjoying the "cheap" labor 😂😂
Western Express went from blocking the fuel island to blocking the crosswalk. Talk about multi-tasking!
To all the drivers who hit the bridges, YOU'RE FIRED!!
...And it don't matter what country you come from either.
Doesn't matter what language you speak, reading numbers never changes.
but do they understand feet and inches vs. metric?
@@839Unipickeryup just ask your lady if one extra inch matters
The one at the end :"My GPS fuc*ed me up". No sir, you effed up by relying only on your GPS.
Typical, NOT MY FAULT.........🤬
There’s gps with trucks routes , for free .It’s only matter to search a little”
GPS is good but it doesn't replace paying attention to the signage!
@@the-kilted-trucker59 OR PLANNING AHEAD, planning the trip before leaving the shipper.
It's called Trip planning!!!
There goes the GPS again, preventing me from using my own eyeballs to read any of the warning signs that I drove past. Curse you GPS!
@6:29 the driver just smiling as he approaches the flashing sign and boom lol 🤣
Goodness I drove 20 years. . Fortunately I never hit a bridge 😅😅...there's signs everywhere!!!😂😂
Right. I've driven 12 years and never hit a bridge. There's to many signs warning us about the clearance ahead. If it's less than 13'6 avoid it like the plague
I drove 30 years never hit a bridge.
I got detoured because of construction in the middle of the night. The detour brought me to a bridge marked 11.5. That was probably the longest distance I drove in reverse that night.
lol, I can relate to that. 17 years driving veteran here hauling gas, diesel, ethanol, bio diesel and jet fuel.
Chicago is good for low bridges and under marked bridges.
That last guy was losing his mind 😂. Don't understand how the he'll. Makes my brain 🧠 hurt.
He didn’t have much of a mind to lose to begin with when he decided using a car GPS in a truck would be a good idea.
@kyleburns5772 Yeah, he used the Rand McNally TND 750 in Car mode
@@millionmiler EVEN BETTER!!! HAHAHHAHA
The Last driver is a good example on why you shouldn't rely completely on gps. Pre plan your route using Google earth and other tools
Never rely on google maps
Honestly all you need is attention to detail and common sense..
@@angeld7689thats true. But google earth helps a lot with seeing where the entrance is to the shipper/receiver before you arrive. You just gotta learn how to use your tools with common sense and you'll be good.
@@snobak1 you shouldn't rely on just any one thing. You should have multiple tools and use common sense when using them. I've never used a truck gps and I've been driving for 12+ years. When I worked for prime Inc they gave written directions and I just compared it to Google maps on my phone. I really just use it to know what street I'm coming up on but I also look at the street signs
@@snobak1google street view comes in handy when pre planning routes
This is "professionalism" at its best😂
I have had drivers literally tell me that the signs saying "No Trucks" and "Truck EXIT ONLY" don't apply to them and that they had ALWAYS come to my site that way.
It's their first time to the site.
Buncha liars. We do have our share of those. "I told my dispatcher ..."
Lol. I've made some whoopsies, but never argued like that.
@@jareddrogose1470
Sadly, these days, you'd be the extreme rare minority of what I see.
Think the longest anyone took to argue was roughly one hour or so as they blocked the clearly marked truck exit.
And they weren't even the only one that day, but they were the catalyst for having us start keeping track of what they were looking for and how many.
The worst offenders weren't even looking for us, would be given exact directions from the exit to where they needed to be, and they'd beeline from the exit to our entrance and argue that we're stupid and just have to let them in.
Be safe out there, what's on the roads with us is sketchy.
100% preventable except for the stupidity that's 100% GUARANTEED
32 yrs never hit a bridge ,but seeing these guys out there ,i am glad to be retired
They must think the trailer will duck under the low clearance.
it will when you press you low clearance button on the dash in the new trucks
@@teemurphy-tg4iq wtf. Really? Which trucks have that feature?
When being a trucker is your dream life... and realizing that trucking once WAS your dream life. "Noooooo!!!" We're all capable of mistakes, but it comes down to how important that prevention is to each and every individual behind the wheel, which even applies to our personal vehicles. Never stop paying attention to signs... it's rare the proper signage isn't there.
Buy a Rand McNally Trucker Atlast every 2 years and pay attention to it. Plan trips.
There’s never a reason to hit bridges, however NYC for some odd reason has a lot of clearances wrong AF for instance. I traveled the cross Bronx Expressway; I95 more times than I care to remember. They have a clearance marked 12’9 when it’s actually 13’7 it’s a lot of mis marked clearances in the city. However that’s why signs are everywhere. Use expressways NOT parkways. If you’re off the National Network, proceed with caution upon approaching bridges. Going into the city ya gotta preplan !! Check your route carefully even call the cops for added assurances. My personal cliche; if it looks low, don’t go. Stop & call 911.
Thats the reason a lot if not most companies will exempt drivers from NYC
Western Express was delivering that overpass and ran out of gas!
Of course WE stalled there, putting gas in a diesel tank.
Old, old old joke
@@kathyyoung1774 But a goodie lol
You would think anyone with a CDL would know the height of their truck and look at the sign when they come across a bridge that looks kinda low.
That bridge just JUMPED OUT IN FRONT OF ME!!!
I once had to drive a box.truck and of course didnt know the height (even tho it.was printed on the damn mirror) and drove on my merry way. Oops, hit a low area on a motel. Yep, that was traumatic. Now, as I drive a regular car I read EVERY DAMN OVERHEAD SIGN ON THE FREEWAYS. EVERY SINGLE ONE. You NEVER forget. Costly yet a lesson learned.
When the truck fights the bridge, the bridge always wins.
The GPS messed him up. No, his eyes and lack of common sense messed him up. Also, starting on page A27 of your atlas is a list of restricted routes and low clearances. It's listed by State. People spend hundreds on a GPS but won't spend $40 on an atlas.
"Here's Yer sign...."
...or they do not bother to read the manual of the GPS, and properly set it up, for example
I own an electrical contractor business and I have 2 track hoes and a full time driver for the rig. He’s my second driver, and has lasted 7 years so far while the previous didn’t make a year. I told my current driver just like I told the previous driver: you hit a bridge, pack your shit. I pay him very well not just to be a professional driver, but to plan his route that removes as many dangerous situations as possible. I don’t care if takes an extra 2 hours and 50 miles to get to the site because there is a potentially too low bridge, take the long way.
The first driver I had decided he could make it under a 12’4” with a 400k track hoe on the low boy. Guess what? He didn’t make it. And he not only cost me an insane amount of money to repair a hoe and low boy, but he also caused a passenger vehicle’s passenger serious injury when the track hoe’s gravel bucket was knocked off and landed in the middle of the lane. That shouldn’t have happened anyway, but when you are too lazy to chain down the bucket on the low boy (as you are supposed to do while transporting multiple buckets) he decided to put the gravel bucket inside the digging bucket. He’s goddamned lucky he didn’t kill someone, and only lost his job and his CDL. Not to mention all the fines and paying the state to check the integrity of a bridge after it has been significantly hit.
Hitting bridges are 100% preventable. My current driver always checks his maximum height before he leaves the yard. If there is an unavoidable obstruction, then we will make a plan to handle it. I’ve literally had him drop the hoe before a bridge, drive it under, and reload it on the other side. I will not go through bridge hitting again.
The legends of trucking today the crash and burn group😂
Ike, 'Thank you' for a video without all the jabberwockies. Thumbs up brother.
The one at the end believed his GPS not his own eyes. That's stupid and funny.
Keep right on staring at that GPS setup in your language. 👌 Darwin at work.
Back before GPS.. I was in Chicago and a fellow gave me directions into his Drop Yard to drop a trailer. I was heading according to his directions and I found a 12Foot bridge. Stopped and Backed up and used a Ally way to get out to US Route.. Wife was Nervous as all get out.. it was her first time in a KW T-600
I had to go to Chicago and drove around way out of the way trying to avoid low bridges 😂 Scary stuff
😁 drove for 30 years never had a bridge ! Done some other s***😂
“I an’t stuck, I am delivering a bridge!” 😂 when I was driving LTL 20-25 stops, 250-300 miles a day. There was an underpass that was the same height as my 53’ trailer. I had deliveries on both sides. 35 minutes to go around. Until another driver I knew for 10 years said the height was higher than posted. I went slow stop before and under the bridge. Be an underpass I was worried the cent of the trailer would hit. No but I was hitting the ivy that was hanging under the bridge. 😮
my Dad died in the 70's and he would always say about some people, "they are dumber then a mud fence". Back in the 1940's we had in our area an Army depot where they stored bomb's etc. to get into the depot trucks had to go under a rail road bridge and one day a truck got stuck under the bridge and the driver and the guards were trying to get the truck out and a little boy came by and said I know how to get it out and they ran the boy off. after a few times of telling the guard he knew how they finally asked him How? the little boy said let the air out of the tires. it worked
Oh, My Gosh (5.44ish - 5:54ish) The looks on those dudes are priceless. It reminds me of some old cartoons "Which way did he go, George... What happened George.. daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" That driver looking around like.. TOTALLY CLUELESS!
After 16 years of driving, I STILL LOOK AT EVERY SI GLE BRIDGE. I GO UNDER. I dont even have to think about it. TRAIN YOURSELF, and it becomes second nature.
Yes Schneider hires illigals 😂
Don’t even blame the friggin GPS!
So, does Western Express hire Swift flunk-outs, or is it the other way around?
Yep. Lower than 13' 6" is Definitely the haircut palace.
Most of the foreign semi drivers you have can't read English, that would help!
This compilation was WAY overdue and over height. 😂
Hey Western...swing wide..it's a friggen viaduct!
When I pass drivers I can tell they are watching videos on their phones or tablets. I see all the time now sitting on the dash screen going back and forth like a T.V. Could be twerk videos, Porn or their subscription to O.F. 7:43 mark. That car hauler is a now a classic.
Hey Ike, that pace commercial is 30yrs old.............. lol .......... Funny man, after 30yrs i just started eating pace on everything a few weeks ago
30 years??!
Damn I got old quick....
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 this is so funny how do these drivers really do this bridge stuff.i will like them to teach me 😅
Here I was thinking Schneider only dropped trailers and jumped guardrails to climb hills. Didn't know they liked taking out bridges, too.
Swing low, it's a friggin' bridge! SLIFB Trucking!
Oohh-mmaann I always wanted a sun-roof lmfao
Love watching the mess!
Why are engineers etc... allowed to build bridges too low for a semi truck to go under?
When i drove i had a book of low clearence bridges. That little book saved me a few times.
Also an Atlas. Got mine still sitting on passenger seat
Ike Dan from Connecticut I've been driving 40 years and I never hit a bridge until last year in Connecticut we had a add an accident our local state road so everybody took a left I filed them took the right ground over the hell I was and I took the whole top off of my box truck from front to back you know how they say I think I pooped my britches so I did poop my britches my bridges love your videos be safe I'm a bonehead
Back in 1988 at truck driving school one of the first thing they told us "check your height" and READ THE SIGNS on bridges , but this is the days of automatic transmissions and CDL'S out of Cracker Jacks boxes WTF!!!!
7:51 play Shawn Michaels intro music when that car hauler hits the bridges 3 times
"The Heartbreak Kid"... now in the HOF with Martin Gannetti. I still hope Matin gave him some for the window incident at The Barbershop.
Pepperidge Farm remembers.
10:40. Your fault homie. Read the signs. Plan ahead. GOAL.
😂😂😂😂 DURKA DURKA!!!
It's the GPS 😂
Didn't we just have a conversation about road atlases yesterday driver?
Not just GPS. What I started driving in early 1993, we had no GPS. Dummies hit bridges back then, too. CARELESS IDIOTS.
All those trucks hitting bridges. The container ship says hold my beer and shows you how to hit a bridge
Great video Ike!! That last guy, that GPS didn’t mess him up, HE messed him up smh
I do Doordash and Instacart now and I still tend to watch for signs.
I just loved it when the US-97 bridge at Biggs Junction was closed for repairs back in the 2000's, we had to go west on WA-14 and use the US-197 bridge at the Dalles.........well, a group of us continued west on WA-14 despite the signs warning of 12'9" tunnels ahead, and there are seven of them, tunnels I mean.
Well, it's 12'9" at the shoulder, I've been dragging a 13'6" reefer thru those tunnels for 21+yrs, never had an issue.
when i say woe i mean woe!!!!!!
Stewpid dragon!... Dragons is SOOO stewpid....
"You're fired!"
Love how he blames the gps at the end.. idk how many times gps says turn here and I just look down the road and nope not today satan
All I can say is they are not good with math😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😭😭
Started driving,30 years ago with Swift. Had to stay one year to pay for my training. They sent me into N y to pick up Beer. I followed the Qualcomm directions and hit a bridge. They sent me back to my SC terminal and as I walked in my dispatcher called me to the side and gave me the directions that was on the Qualcomm at the time of my wreck. Saved my but. Did my year and got out.
Classics … Aight Getcha Some Of that ..!!!! TRC And Me getcha 88%
That last clip..sad
It has hit home hard with that driver
"The bridge always wins ! - BHT 😅
I appreciated the truck stop bathroom video the other day. That is the reason I made a bathroom law. No one was able to use the bathroom on the west wing of the truck stop between midnight and 6am.
Only me. I am long retired from my driving days now, but I was known as the King Of The Truck Stop at one point. It was the roadside truck stop. My CB handle was Claw. Still go by that name.
Chow!
I JUST DROVE THROUGH NEW YORK YESTERDAY AND I HATED IT, BBUT AT LEAST I DID NOT HIT A BRIDGE OR ANYTHING ELSE.
The GPS fucked me up LOL
Push in the mustard and ketchup buttons and d for dataway about all they teach them nowadays
That Flatbeder (4.04) earned himself a DBA "Dumbus BoneHead Award" HEY, maybe we should start Awarding these, ahh ... ahh or have our (well your) show an Annual Awards Show!
I just came out of Brooklyn. I've been in there a handful of times since I started 2yrs ago & it's fucking TERRIBLE!! EVERY SINGLE TIME!! N I lived there for 33yrs of my life. Spent 2hrs on the BQE this morning going 7mi. Then spent another hr & half going 7mi down Atlantic in BK. Fucking terrible.. I cant wait till I get enough time under my belt to tell them to kick rocks when they try giving me a NYC load.
New York is like the butthole of the northeast.
Why'd you show us the abridged version, Ike?
New York City... City boy city boy...
Last driva, Mcdees is hiring.
I love the one at 7:25 I know exactly where that is in Durham, North Carolina, and there are multiple signs on both sides of the road before you get to that one warning you that it’s a low clearance
I loaded an overseas container at the beginning of my shift. I unloaded that container after last break. Driver hit 11' 9" at 35. Delaware Ohio
I drive at western express an the GPS tried to send me in a 12-4 bridge I was like no we not lol
GPS will send you over a historical covered bridge. USE YOUR HEAD.
#1 foren drivers
0:22 I've been there! That's gotta be Savannah GA. I spent 3 weeks there with a shot transmission.
Hey Ike back in the 70's growing up in NYC it was not unusual to see a semi get stuck under the FDR Drive. This was back when trailers were allowed to be 12'6". They would have to deflate the trailer tires. One of the biggest hot spots was going under the UN Building. You could look up and see the scrape marks on the roof. LOL.
😂 as mean as you are it still makes me laugh when you laugh 🤷🏻♀️
Drivers at 6:00 -- Was that a TRAINER playing with his phone?
Swiftty swift got the back tandems in the air 😂😂😂😂😂
Even at just 11'-3", I check the route for low bridges. And,...if the bridge, or roof canopy has a sign saying 11'-6" I get out and measure. Takes extra time, but sure saves from ripping the roof open.
Best commentary on RUclips
That plane hitting the bridge sounded expensive
99% of these "accidents" could've been avoided if they read their atlas while trip planning through either their phones or GPS. 🤷🏾♂️
Years ago, I was delivering to a farm. Had a dome shaped bridge. 10' on the edges but by straddling the center, I had about 1" clearance. It's the closest I've come to hitting a bridge. I pulled up and stopped and got out and looked.
That 10'8" look very much like Roanoke VA, over by the hospital. Say it ain't so lmfao
"I'd love to see a performance of Larry the Cable Guy/Jeff Foxworthy do a skit on this topic of Bonehead Truckers. Have seen them in person, and extremely very funny.
I like driving in NY city where the signs are measuring from the top of the curb to the bottom of the bridge.
As a general rule, if the tractor doesn't make it, the trailer definitely won't. No worries, you can make as much money working two full-time fast food jobs.
3:30 made my side hurt😅😅
Some of those bridges in up state ny and New England are marked for the when there is average snow on the road ..but still no excuse 🎉🎉🎉 clearance
I was in texas one time picking up a load of coffee i think the place was in or near Houston, there was a road I was suppose to take that had a 13'6" bridge on it I found a different route. Some dice just aint meant to roll
Many truck drivers are not the brightest bulbs on the tree!
When you’re training it’s like you’re driving………🤪
Been there done that, I don’t wish it on anyone 😢😢
