      Clarkson apologized many ti9mes for his actions and he finally came and spoke out about what actually happened. he said his doctor told him he most likely had cancer when they found a lump on his tongue and that he had to go in immediately but he said no top gear comes first and when after a long day on set having had nothing at all that day, his mother dying recently and his second marriage falling apart he snapped when they could not even give him hot food. i am not excusing what he did but there are 2 sides to every story

      Actually the producer was an ass hole before the indecent. Many employees from Top Gear's film crew and writing crew complained about him saying he was rude and a bit of a dick. The punch wasn't just over a lunch it was built up over season after season disagreement. And it wasn't just one lunch the producer was holding back the entire crews lunch. Producer could have very well deserved it.

    Love the hookups. It REALLY helps to try to pull out after you hear the click of the fifth wheel pin. If the tractor moves and the trailer does not you are not hooked up. And heck yes I hate when cars pass me while I am getting onto the freeway. And then drive slower than I will be going as soon as I get up to speed.

    • @a64738

      That happens with my driving my Ford Transit box van, from behind it looks like a full size lorry. Car pass me and then slow down right after and then proceeds to drive 20km/h under the limit rest of the day... But at least I do not have a speed limiter so it is not that hard to drive past them.

  • @deezynar
    @deezynar 15 лет назад +13

    The guy w/ the car in the semi-trailer might have to hit all the gears, but the other 2 are empty and light enough to skip some gears. You can start in 2nd, go to 4th, etc. It really depends on the engine & tranny set-up. I don't think they were double clutching either, it helps with the changes. After you get some experience you learn to shift without the clutch. This episode is good because it shows that heavy trucks require a variety of skills not used or needed by the average driver.
