    The overhead wires are an electric truck trial project. Electric trucks can charge on the go, using a pantograph (like a train). It's aneu trial project.

    13:30 the reason for the road works is they are preparing to connect the German side with a tunnel into Denmark with a Femarhn belt project to cut down on travel time from Germany to Sjælland, its currently ongoing project and they are atm casting the concrete elements on the Danish side to make the tunnel, which is gonna be a joint motorway/railway tunnel.

    Yes, Sherralin, couldn't agree more about youngsters getting more interested in doing something rewarding. Being out in the open with wonderful views is so much more rewarding than being stuck in a gloomy office or factory. If only someone had told me that when I was young.
    Excellent video. Keep up the good work.

    Not sure if you've seen the videos, but there is a famous underpass that "eats" trucks in North Carolina in the US, that was 11 feet 8 inches (3m 5.5cm). It was raised to 12 feet 4 inches (3m 7.6cm) and trucks still get caught on it. It's in a downtown area of one of the cities and has over-height warning signals and signs, yet people still attempt to go under it. Many times the tops of their trucks get a good shave off the top. Mostly they are what we call box trucks here in the US.

      I do watch some American RUclips channels, Australian and other countries too. I like seeing how the job is “the same but different” everywhere.
      All the bridges in UK are 16’6” (5.02m) unless otherwise stated. In Europe however they are 13’1” (4m) unless otherwise stated. This can catch some out. This lorry runs very low and has a very low 5th wheel making the trailer lower by an inch or so from the tractor. I still wouldn’t have taken it under if I hadn’t be assured by the guy in charge that he’d measure it! 😂😁

    As you passed that funny type of building, you're coming off and saw a sign for Arnhem (A Bridge Too Far). That was my first town where my and my hubby camped way back. We were on our way to Germany where he was based when in the army (he was actually based at Belsen, where the concentration camp is). The British Army actually uses the disused Nazi barracks for the troops who worked at the camp. Looking at the peninsula in Denmark, you can actually take a ferry from Denmark to Iceland, stopping at the Faroe Islands. I think its only cars, campers, motorhomes, not lorries. And its a 66 hour crossing🤣. Being clear, I bet the sky will be brilliant to look at for stargazing
