good little video and well explained by former top gear presenter chris goffey when top gear was good you can just about hear the sound of the six cylinder engine in that 190.30 iveco turbostar humming away

We need a serious update on this one with go pros and 2022 traffic....good as it is but could be amazing if someone can/wants to take that on....would happily pay for view
Still fantastic video regardless of fact it is years old. Hope that knowledge would help me during my CE exam. Would be nice if new video showed or explain what exactly you seeing in those bottom mirrors.

My advice is to try to set yourself in a right mind, take documents with you and no matter what will happen during that test (and will happen as I experienced some crazy stuff) Do not give up but drive till you back end center and you hear "this is end of the exam" Sorry that I can not be more helpful than that.
Because you can't know for sure that someone is turning off the main road until they have committed to the manoeuvre. They could be signalling left because they've forgotten to turn it off, and you can't reliably tell from in front whether they're braking. On test therefore, I believe you'd be expected to wait until they actually turn their wheels before emerging.
Depends on the examiner. You could pull out in front of signalling traffic with some examiners but it would be an instant fail if they were signalling with no intention of turning and you made them slam on their brakes even with a lax examiner.
Certainly not, you're not supposed to pay attention to signals until it's clear they're turning off. Back in the day when this was made i do doubt they're as strict as they are now
I think this is one of the best formats to see regarding the view from the driving seat of a class 1. Now if shit bird cyclists don't understand how difficult it is to drive large vehicles and their blind spots they never will.
The voice in the video (that of Chris Goffey, formerly of BBC's Top Gear) is a familiar one. He has good advice for HGV drivers, although the video "General Knowledge for your CDL class "A" - Part 2 of 2" (available elsewhere on RUclips) has good advice, too. The "General Knowledge..." video has potential US CDL theory test questions having to do with speed, and answers (e.g. leaving 1 second for every 10 feet of a bus or HGV's length, for speeds < 40 mph, adding 1 second to that for speeds of 40 mph or more, and that turning wide into the road in which a driver of an HGV or bus wants to go is better than using the road from which the same driver wants to turn).
This is good video fair play! Out out date now! But manufacturers have failed everyone, still far too many blind spots on the trucks and remember the DRIVER ALWAYS GETS THE BLAME, not pedestrians not cyclists, not Offfice staff. Truck drivers need to Look after number 1, if the road is unstable , unsuitable or unsafe then DON,T DELIVER simple.

Notice how there was much less traffic on the roads back then years ago.
It’s 2020 LOL

The time of day and location is important. It's quiet where I live, just like in the video. :)

Rusting turbostar. Go home Friday night, ticking over for you Monday morning. Multi plugs full of water. Those were the days lol

Sounds like the narrator is none other than Chris Goffey of old Top Gear fame!

You should make new video
Are these applicable to class 2? Is there anything you should do differently?
Thanks
If you learn this video,it will be much more easy for Class 2
What about the pedestrians at 0:24 ?!?
Where can we find the full series of videos please?
Sorry for the slow reply. Unfortunately this is a very old VHS video and no longer available
