    Quick story Scott: I once listened to a farmer in Spain(oranges, backload), 'the best way back to town is . . '.
    Ended up driving across some allotments, me zigzaging in the unit, trailer, basically going in a straight line, taking the corner of multiple plots.
    Comes into town between 2 buildings, BOTH mirrors in.
    Drives across entire road and shunts several times to jackknife the unit so the trailer can clear the shops either side at T junction.
    Fortunately it was past midnight( no parked cars).
    MORAL : NEVER listen to farmers!!!!

      Roger Blagdon what walk round check are you doing where your looking at the vents on your unit? Cause personally after checking the lights are functioning I pay little attention to the cabs body work. Unless it was blazingly obvious your not gonna see it

    Plenty of trucking vlogs going up this week from all of us vloggers, should keep everyone entertained for a while at this uncertain time. Keep safe everyone.

    Sweet, sweet traction!
    Sweet, sweet Tarmac!
    Sweet, sweet motorway!
    I bet you were pleased to get on to something solid Scott, just goes to show that when Bockham Lane was first constructed it was for nothing bigger than a horse and cart! Stay safe son. We lorry drivers all have days like that occasionally and with what's going on at the moment the country will depend on us even more.

    Love this video, I listened to one of your videos on the way to work this morning about your first time driving and I couldn’t stop laughing. I even told my work colleague about it and she laughed too. Your awesome ❤

    Another cracking vlog Scott, well to watch, not so much for you!! Well done for keeping your cool as much as you did! And hindsight is a wonderful thing, we can all look back on situations that we would have tackled differently, but when your on the ground with the customer in front of you, it’s never so easy!! Keep up the good work and keep safe!

    Yes Scott i've put my trust in the farmer on numerous occasions over the years and yes ended up axle deep a few times, so glad i only drive class 2 wagons in my old age. Take care young fella and keep up the good work.

  • @domainnameguy
    @domainnameguy 4 года назад +2

    It takes days like that to appreciate the good days and its a good video for new hgv drivers so that new hgv drivers can see that pearshaped days happen to experienced hgv truckers too but many truckers wouldnt have got back to yard in driving time after having a day like that and its how a driver copes with a day like that too because a new hgv trucker could let a day like that still affect them halfway through next week but an experienced trucker switches pff after shift ends and starts the next day as fresh as a daisy

    Speaking as an ex bus, coach and truck driver I am a total fan of the driving position these vehicles offer for visibility. So much so I cannot usually drive anything lower than a van or SUV to this day. I liked my stint as a taxi driver but that was mostly urban of course. Armed with a trusty Fireman's torch to pick out door numbers and addresses. Although my motorbikes are lower but that is a totally different kettle of cod. I used the Dartford crossing once with a mate in a van going to pick up some motorbikes. He thought we had arrived at Dover. LMAO.. Another time a relative of mine who doesn't drive much went to visit my uncle in Hampshire and ended up just outside of Birmingham. Mentioning no names of course.

    I was delivering to ireland this week (I'm from the netherlands) and it litterly amazes me on were companies are located in the UK. To get to the company I was delivering too I had to drive through a small town and I was lucky I was in a rigid because if I had an artic I would have gotten stuck there.

    Mate, credit to you. i wouldve went down there too, its a concrete track. Attempt the turn at the bottom and if i cant get in worst case scenario is ill have to reverse back to the main road. Wouldnt have done anything different. I know most drivers would be either shit scared to go down there, or simply wouldnt be able to get down there! Credit to you Scott, you're making us young drivers look good! XD

    Holy crap! To see you that not impressed must have been a really bad day! Your straw farms are never good, I'd be red flagging that place in case of future deliveries!
    This is still a great vid Scott, and simply because you have the balls to show you're human and occasionally you have a bad day - without editing it out! Good on you! Obviously I hope you don't have another one for a long time! That guy should've turned up on time and common decency should've told you it was a different place!
    Grab a beer mate, you deserve it!

    Haha yeah I have had plenty of days like this over the years.
    Also definitely put a hi vis flag on the back of stuff like that, if someone runs into it the police wont just say oh well to you. One of the worst offenders for that were plumbers with small but long bits of pipes hanging off their vehicles, extremely dangerous and scary when you pull up behind them then see a metal pipe point straight at either your groin, stomach or throat that you hadnt noticed while in motion.

    Just unload or load on the road. There’s rarely any need to follow instructions from customers.
    Live & learn.
    Good footage thou, great entertainment Scot.
    Can’t see why you’ve got more subs !
    Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
    Don’t take Artics off road, without getting in customers vehicle & taking a tour first of the area & delivery location.
    Heard a story of removals company, moving customer into new house.
    This place was so narrow, with false roads that lead nowhere, other than to a ford or hump back bridge.
    Customer said, to driver, on phone, whatever you do DO NOT turn of main road, driver was like, just leave it to us, we’ve been doing this for years.
    Turned out driver did turn of main road & lorry was stuck for two weeks & had to be crainned out.
    I was in 7.5tonner & mirrors where folded in & location was on the side of a hill.
    Never trust customers who are new.
    You getting stuck was nothing really.

As a class 1 pilot, I judge you as a hero and hope your boss appreciates you. Those lanes you have to drive on should be closed to HGV's. Let the farmers meet you with their kit near the main road.

    NEVER... trust farmers, you'll get told all sorts of Bs to get you on site normally things like "we've had bigger trucks in ere all day, all the time". places like this are just about acceptable for a tipper lorry with high clearance and twin drives.. not an artic or anything else with normal road tyres.

    I was just winding up to take the piss out of the 'Rhod Gilbert' of road haulage. Its what we do in this business right? Its called gallows humour. Through the first 5 minutes of video I was mentally choosing my adjectives with a sliding scale of venom. "Start gently Ian boy" thinks I, "then go for the jugular a bit later".
    Teach this young movie starlet a thing or two about the big bad world of agricultural lorry driving. Oh yes. By minute 5 I was ready to start unloading in the comments like a fully automatic AK47 with extended mags, loaded with F, C & T words.
    By the time the video got to 6:30 all those feelings had gone. That look in your eye. The slight quiver in your voice and the (as yet) unnoticed parking ticket stuck to the front of your truck like a big pointy hat with a 'D' on it.
    I recognised you were in stress overload and you didn't me or anyone else adding to it.
    By the time you paid the ultimate indignity of being hauled out arse first by a tractor in glorious technicolour, for all the world to see, I was actually feeling quite sorry for you. Not even in a patronising way as I've been there many times myself at various farms across the country.
    Next time it happens (and it will) it won't be quite as stressful a situation and even less so the next time (and the next time) it happens.
    No one hurt, no damage to speak of and you got home. Alls well that ends well.

      Thanks Ian, Yes was certainly in stress overload that day! But lessons learnt and can look back and laugh at myself now. No doubt I'll get stuck again at some point too lol Thanks
