Turn that can on its side Luke and it’ll pour smoothly - years of refuelling JCB diggers when you used to have to stand on the bonnet with a Jerry can of diesel. Mind you back in the day the bonnets were steel not plastic!
Great to see you this morning 23/11 in Cardiff, I was in the Derw Glass lorry that tooted the horn at you at the roundabout by Rover Way. Hope your having a good day Luke 👍
A lot of the laybys on the A55 have a 4hr limit. It's a bit hit and miss as to whether the police enforce it, but even if they do, the parking fine is cheaper than the one for going over your hours!! If you're out of hours, they can't make you move on.
When filling your Ad-Blue, if you're putting in the whole, or most of, that container in, punch a hole in the top behind the handle with a screwdriver. It lets the air in as you're pouring and stops the glug glug glug splashing. Great video as usual.
No need for holes, he needs to have the can in a sideway position and it'll stop that, and for the idiot jambo calling him clueless, the man clearly stated that those containers are taken back to the yard to get refilled.
If you're tight on time, pull in, if no good go on, wasted opportunity spotting the space after you are past it. Also in the dark, turn off all interior cab lighting. Its a lot easier seeing out in the night time. Try not to make habit of running too tight on hrs. Its not good for your physical and mental health, elevates stress levels. Over here more so. In canada there was loads of space and truck stops were huge, so finding space wasnt a worry. This is why lots of truckers try to park up early. Glad i dont tramp anymore.
Hi Luke, I run to Dove Valley Park for GXO quite often (you'll have seen GXO as you come round the roundabout) and yes you can park on that estate overnight, some of the guys subcontracted to GXO do it regular. You can also turn right towards GXO instead of going right round and do a spinny outside GXO then park on Park Avenue. I'm hoping to get my Trucker Murdock channel running soon to help my job chances as an agency driver and it's given me an idea to point out places to park for breaks and for trampers.
If you need to re-use the container, to stop it glugging, have the cap hole at the top (nearer you), so it pours from the highest point, and rotate it as it empties. Useless fact; places that end in 'wich' in Cheshire area are old salt mining towns.
If you're out of driving time they're not allowed to move you on. Some might ask you to prove it but very rarely do. Great video stay safe stay legal mate 👍
I'm not sure if I passed you on Tuesday on the 417/ 419 between South Cerney and Cirencester, omg - your lights are so bright when flashing someone, I think my retinas are still burning :)
Yes they are bright 😂 put it this way, if the driver is wearing a hi viz, I can see it reflect while looking into the passenger mirror of the truck in front 😂
@lukecinahgv but the driver in the hi viz is 5 miles away! keep smashing the content, hopefully you weren't flashing me on the opposite side of the dual carriageway :)
Surprised if you're fined for parking at that time of night. There's one near our place and it's regularly full after 6pm and if I'm on nights they are still there when I pass it in the early hours. Think it's whether the local council decide to enforce.
I reckon that signs for when the dinners open so they can keep getting business nd not Lorrie’s in the way all day I guess but probably not at night ? 32:08
I was telling you as I watched this video that there are restrictions on parking on the A55, but you were not listening! It is the nice labour government that helps working people as in London, Manchester, Bristol by making things difficult. Did you get your truck out of Eco mode?
Hi Luke. Please. What make and size screen is your satnav please. As I’m thinking seriously of getting a new one , and yours you can play about with where you are going. !! Wish You Well
Seeing the tomtom traffic issue - I have this issue constantly on the expert plus and cannot connect to MyDrive on iPhone. Really disappointed with it at the moment. No multi vehicle profiles as promised and some routes are very questionable. Tomtom don’t want to know which considering what they are charging for these devices is shocking. Would also be interested to see if you have had the black screen after using for a while? Reboot fixes but not great when you need it!
@@DavisM1988 definitely something wrong with these - I press and hold the button and eventually it comes back to life. I am hoping this is all going to be fixed in a firmware update but not holding my breath!
I'm really liking my new Garmin, There are some things it's not great at but on the whole I prefer it. pros: the routing is great, they show popular truck routes as blue roads and it seems to handle 7.5 restrictions without sending you (literally) round the houses. It has the best reception in London, even with the tall buildings. You don't have to subscribe for live traffic, it's a free app for it to connect to on your phone. Cons: It messes up some major junctions for correct lane to be in, eg. M25 to M11 north it tells you to get into M11 London then switch to the other lane after. The upcoming delays are only displaying the next delay and not what else after until you pass that one. The lane guidance can be lacking sometimes, works great through London though.
@@jaffabeast yes I have to agree about the Garmin - have the dezl 800 which I have switched back to using after the issues I have had with the TT. Definitely the better sat nav all round. Pulling double deckers we often get given specific routes we must take and Garmin shape route feature makes this so easy but TT you have to keep adding stops. The TT does have some great features in terms of guidance and I like the 3 route options compared to Garmin offering only 2 but you are definitely getting way more for your money with Garmin. I can even watch Netflix on my Garmin and RUclips or browse the internet. The only problem I have with the Garmin is I can’t get it to show up on my mac and have to use my sons laptop but all updates can be done from WiFi anyway so no big deal really.
l was struggling to work out where you were going but when l saw the map looks like you are heading to Amlwch on anglesey and an easy way to say it would be am luck or am look
Hi luke wondering if you could give a shout out to my dad who started drivig in army at 16 and drove lorries up until he was 71 hi is now really ill with lk just a shout out to peter dont wamt to ssy what he has byt kot treatable and is 84 he used to work for a placed flexello in 80s out of sloygh and cds in 90s out of uxbridge then worked at heathrow airport thanx
good content i enjoyed, if you have any contact at tomtom, can you tell there there seems to be a issue with the new hgv plus vs screen going blank after like 6 or 7 hours use and have to keep pressing the power button on and off to get the directions to come back on the screen
13 minutes in you have already had 6 RUclips adverts, and 4 of those by around 8 mins. Gave up with your advert video. Seriously I get the need for adverts, I really do, but when they are coming in less than every 5 mins it makes your video unwatchable. 😢😮
Christmas is arriving. RUclips decides how many to show not me. You can purchase RUclips premium and then no adverts are shown. I have a family package for my wife and kids also
I literally said I understand what he’s saying. That’s me acknowledging what he’s saying, I’m not disagreeing with him…😂 If someone tells me somthing I didn’t know then I’ll except their opinion on the matter. I can understand what he is saying and how it might cause adblue faults. I never thought about it like that before and now I do. So he hasn’t wasted his time at all 🤷♂️ Have you tried telling me something in the past that I already knew? Maybe that’s why you’re upset

looking at the tubes, he reuses them. i think.
No need for holes, he needs to have the can in a sideway position and it'll stop that, and for the idiot jambo calling him clueless, the man clearly stated that those containers are taken back to the yard to get refilled.
Thank you 👍👍
Thanks for another fascinating vlog Luke. You certainly plan your day to the minute.
Cracking video, cracking content as always Luke, thanks for that! Keep up the good work and keep safe!👍🙂🚛
i work up and down the a55 everyday, people always park in them laybys overnight i wouldn't worry about it.

Mineral or bottled water bottle of your choice,cut the bottom of it,you got a funnel, i reckon that adblue is quite corrosive on paintwork

Smells really pissy on Park Avenue!
I can imagine that it gets very stressful when you are approaching the end of your driving hours.
Thanks for the latest upload.
Hi luke loved the video again keep trucking and stay safe mate
Should have popped in the cherrytree pub when you stopped at the services, best carvery in derby 👍

when you are geting fuel do you use your drive time or is it other works on the taco?
If you're out of driving time they're not allowed to move you on. Some might ask you to prove it but very rarely do. Great video stay safe stay legal mate 👍
glad i gave up HGV driving never put myself under the presssure you are on

Interesting and entertaining video again Luke, Great stuff! By the way "Dove" is pronounced "Duv" (like the bird)
A very good Saturday evening to you all

Another great vlog Luke could of parked in are yard 👍🏻👍🏻
Luke is your number plate K22 HSH? I saw one of yours in Chichester this morning 😃👌🏼
Hi Luke. Please. What make and size screen is your satnav please. As I’m thinking seriously of getting a new one , and yours you can play about with where you are going. !! Wish You Well
Is your satnav the Tom Tom go expert 7in if so how do you get the road in green
You need your break. I can not see a traffic warden giving you a parking ticket.
Oh dear 4hr limit. No room for night drivers requiring a 45 because day drivers taking all spaces.
Another great video.
Hi Luke , great content as usual, do you ever get pulled in by DVA ?
Hi luke great video mate 😊

Refilling adblue cans main way to cause adblue faults .
Why? Same stuff going in
Drums picked up at garage are air tight . Tank in yard or at pump no moisture so no crystals refilling cans gets your unit contaminated.
We fill up from yard using ibc which is filled up by a tanker. I do understand what your saying though
I literally said I understand what he’s saying. That’s me acknowledging what he’s saying, I’m not disagreeing with him…😂
