@@debatable1984 I can be a right jobsworth like DJ when little teapot tyrants are concerned . folk tend to tread very carefully after you turn the tables on them .
Actually the lady did great over all . She is allowed to question but didn't pursue too much and stayed friendly and professional, well done that lady.
i've been following you now for about 2 months. I think you are doing fantastic with your videos. I now watch your video daily when they come out. Keep up the work. Brilliant.
When @DJ Audits looked at the site board and said 'Electric Avenue,' I wonder how many people sang in their head, "I'm gonna rock down to... Electric Avenue' ?
I'm so impressed by the cameras on those small drones , the footage is crystal clear, when I first heard about them I was expecting the footage to be broken up or out of focus , but the footage of the city was excellent, seeing Villa Park in the background was good.
She was ok. I like how DJ engages with people and puts them at ease. Great people skills. Loved the 360 degree shot with the M6 sweeping away south into the distance. Good stuff.👌👍
Great job DJ the guys were great waving drone footage excellent the health and safety officer ok she kept it professional once she knew you were filming her
Nice one DJ , have the same drone and do a bit of flying in my local area and do a drone safe check before flying. I have been challenged a few times with people and they are not so nice , I direct them to your videos to educate them , although some responses I have a great laugh at as some people think they are always right even when they are wrong . 🚀🚀
I'm American and cannot get over how everything is just mixed up together in this country. No zoning at all like you get back home. From the drone you can see residential, commercial and industrial units all side by side. I personally think it works better. Zoning that we have back in the US really does breed car dependency and miles of boring subburbs. I love how here you can just head out down to the local shops by foot for groceries or wine! 😂
Like you say, zoning requires transport to get to so the principle is now mixed employment and residential to encourage less transport reliance although it is to a point. We do still have industrial estates purely zoned for business on the outskirts of towns and cities.
Great video highlighting highway maintenance. Like how planning and contractor notices are posted at sites and Portakabin appears to do good business as well. Hello Hi-Vis Guys, thanks for the wave! 👋👋👋😃
Interesting stuff DJ. Any engineering projects like that are always fascinating. The construction guys were good sports (great when they all started waving to D.A.V.I.D 😂). I thought the lady at the end was going to undo the good work but she just about redeemed herself in the end 👍🏼😊
From the states... the more I watch your videos, the more I want to watch... it's a long flight from california to birmingham to get a keyring 😅 cheers, and keep up the great work FROM ABOVE!!!
it's a bi-directional expressway hence the red crosses...for example you will have 4 lanes going into the city during rush hour and 2 coming out....then it is reversed at night 4 coming out and 2 going in...
When they all say, repeatedly, "i don't get why you're doing it or I don't understand what you get out of it" the answer should be "You don't have to, i'm doing what I want for ME not YOU" This woman was ok in the end but others have been aggressive, rude, liers etc.
They have been reinforcing under the Aston Expressway and Spaghetti Junction for decades, I think the concrete started to crumble on the pillars and it took years to repair.
An honest & curious enough, in a healthy manner, fella... him with the glasses. I'll wager, mes amis, that he's out looking to buy a drone himself ! Cheers to one and all ! 💋
The concrete under the motorway constantly has issues and as you say injected or repaired. I used to work under the motorways where they would inspect and repair. A massive cost to the government to be fair as they pay a fortune out. I worked with one guy and he used to rush his inspections or make the paperwork up and he alone cost them half a million pound in work not done properly lol. I heard the reason it has issues is there were many different contractors and the mixes / constructions of the beams was inconsistent.
Some so-called Health & Safety Officer! you should have asked her why some of the workers were not wearing hard hats in an operational part of the compound!
I've seen some amazing vids from you over the last seven days DJ. One thing I would like to suggest though: is to not let them know its for RUclips, because they start to come to their own conclusion and assumptions then. So I'd suggest - if I may. Don't let them know its for RUclips AND maybe even act a little subtly suspicious. Maybe I'm right maybe I'm wrong. Me personally I love to see them confused.
Hi DJ just found your channel whilst in hospital having a knee replacement and its been a great distraction from the pain especially at night. I'm waiting for you to come to my area but to be honest i won't be quick at getting to the keyring atm! At least i have plenty of old ones to watch while i recover!
I worked on the Tinsley Viaduct for 2 years. We were strengthening the bridge to allow heavier trucks coming from abroad. We put in 250,000 bolts and put on steel plates. To add to the strength
I really enjoyed working there, except being stuck in a box for 10 hours a day lol. Because of the logistics we were not allowed a tea break, but got our 10 minutes added onto our 30 minute lunch break.
A38 (m) called tidal flow, not a smart motorway, but has similarities. 7 lanes no central divider, a buffer lane with no traffic in either lanes 3, 4 or 5. Typically 3 north 3 south, but in rush hours it becomes 4 in peak direction and 2 lanes in the opposite. They post X or 50(max) across the whole motorway as a reminder, not to stray into opposing traffic.
they have 4 lanes into brum in he morning 2 lane out, then in the afternoon its 4 out and 2 in, not smart as such just rush hour priority as there is no center barrier on the expressway
DJ you make interesting informational videos about buildings and sites, I hope that's enough on its own. I guess filming reactions is part of it that you don't want to say necessarily, but it is your goal to say that and get the same reaction as if you didn't.
I don't have a problem satisfying someone's natural curiosity, but I'd have a big problem with someone starting a conversation which suggested that I was doing something wrong like "Have you got permission", along with a failure to identify themselves. She asked if you had a card. You should get cards printed with the words "Sod off you annoying git".
Those blocks are likely on hire. A long contract. Someone must have done some number crunching and decided all the measures (remote battery cams, barricades) are cheaper than a person.
Hello there DJ can I ask you where I can purchase, that battery charger you carry with you, does it keep charging when batteries are carried in it. Loving your vids
Oh I’m such a weirdo, I really enjoyed watching the little diggers. I hope I’m not the only one lol. I also find it laughable that those on these sites can’t imagine others finding this stuff interesting. Ok I/we may be seen as a little weird, but what about twitchers and train spotters? One man’s weird is another man’s WONDERFUL. Just like this video, thanks for a non confrontational vid. (Although those make me giggle too)
Hi dj been watching your videos for a while now and there great keep up the good work, I have a dji mini 2 been taking it for little flights but as I'm in London it's a bit tricky, however I do fly it with no issues, only thing is I can't seem to find how to get my operators license could you advise how to obtain it pls thks in advance
@DJ AUDITS it's all good, mate. I'm not having a go just you doing so good. I didn't want you to under sell yourself, love you content, wish I had the knowledge to do the same, lol I even struggle to talk on my videos that I post lol, keep up the good work! Respect!
Also other trivia (well, depending on your viewpoint) read this somewhere . . . The spaghetti junction area is home to some of the biggest spiders in the country. 🕷 👀 😬
Cheers DJ i got a keyring, i left the other one there

It was a near thing. She obviously isn’t aware that the drone can fly over the property without permission.
Actually the lady did great over all . She is allowed to question but didn't pursue too much and stayed friendly and professional, well done that lady.
So sweet when workers all waved up lol :)
Normal blokes just wanting to earn a living. No fuss, no power trips. Credit to the company. 😊

Certainly nicer than other builders / workers you’ve had to pleasure of dealing with, very good video and interaction
Great interaction with the staff.
All are a credit to their company

When @DJ Audits looked at the site board and said 'Electric Avenue,' I wonder how many people sang in their head, "I'm gonna rock down to... Electric Avenue' ?
Lol , Eddie grant 😂 (1982)
Quiet a few ... I know I did Haha
I did, Think it was Eddy Grant
Bloody hell I've just the other comments
Used to drive home down that road every day and used to do the same thing
Love the 360 Aerial Flyover of the Spaghetti Junction and the M6.
4:00 Our VW camper van had a major breakdown on Spaghetti Junction as we were going on holiday. In 1979. 😞
I'm so impressed by the cameras on those small drones , the footage is crystal clear, when I first heard about them I was expecting the footage to be broken up or out of focus , but the footage of the city was excellent, seeing Villa Park in the background was good.
She was very nice after initially appearing concerned. Interesting video. I like to see whats going on up country. Best wishes from Cornwall 👍
She? DJ thinks otherwise 17:50 😂
She was ok. I like how DJ engages with people and puts them at ease. Great people skills.

Alot of projects have induction labels on helmets, but the staff can be agency or project workers that jump from one job to the next.

Oh we do the wine and other alcohol thing very much, Stacey.
UK is very very old so space is at a premium
The UK has long been known for it's "corner shops" sort of like mini community hubs in a way 😁

What? They are reinforcing it with spaghetti not steel? who'd a thunk it?
I suggest you Penne a response
Great report DJ.
Interesting and valuable info on the company and reassuring info about upgrades and maintenance on the highways for the public.
it's a bi-directional expressway hence the red crosses...for example you will have 4 lanes going into the city during rush hour and 2 coming out....then it is reversed at night 4 coming out and 2 going in...
Yeah and I always hated it. Moved away now, but still remember hating it.
interesting stuff...like you said we drive over it and never see what is going on below...
Interesting show with the viaduct. Guys really liked David which was lovely to see.
When they all say, repeatedly, "i don't get why you're doing it or I don't understand what you get out of it" the answer should be "You don't have to, i'm doing what I want for ME not YOU" This woman was ok in the end but others have been aggressive, rude, liers etc.
Loved that 🎉🎉🎉 very different from the usual brilliant vids🎉🎉
Marvellous
They have been reinforcing under the Aston Expressway and Spaghetti Junction for decades, I think the concrete started to crumble on the pillars and it took years to repair.
It's ongoing, like painting the Forth Road Bridge. The cameras are there just in case someone tries to blow up the supports.

I liked it when the guys down below all waved🥰👍
Nice view of Villa Park i see there 😁💜💙
Strange seeing the A38 in the midlands, as I live near the far end in Cornwall.
The concrete under the motorway constantly has issues and as you say injected or repaired. I used to work under the motorways where they would inspect and repair.

To be fair DJ under the spaghetti junction the work for the motorway been going on with the pillars for like 10+ years now lol
I would love you to say If you wish to speak to me you need to ring head office and ask for permission. 😂🤣😂 Just once
I thought she was going a different way, she was a pleasure!
Another very interesting video, thanks DJ.
Should have landed the drone on the M6 to see the reaction of road users!!!

0:55 - Nothing says 'Secure Site' like tie-wraps hold the fence up!

There was a fleeting moment when she thought you were on the pull asking for her home phone number.
