I've only been driving for just over a year now and you are my best guide. I always keep your safety advises in mind when I am out on the road. Believe it or not, You are doing a fabulous job. Once again ,Thanks Dave!!

[@wilitause972]

Eden Hazard exactly the same for me just few month on road and I follow all tip and trick he give To us!

[@SmartTrucking]

Thank you Eden! Dave

[@Trainfan1055Janathan]

My trainer told me that whenever I pick up a trailer, I should mark the whole damn thing as "dented" and "scratched." That saved me a few times. "No, that dent was already there when I picked it up..."

[@happypappy6371]

I usually set the cruise around 62, but have the ability to step up to 70 - 75 if needed to pass or get out of a situation. At 62, I get better mileage, plus it makes it easier to stop in a hurry or make an unexpected swerve. In a 1000 mile trip, the difference between driving 62 or 70 is 1.84 hours. You can waste that much time getting coffee or bathroom breaks.

[@SmartTrucking]

Exactly right! Dave

[@Senkino5o]

Wow, you have long coffee breaks.

[@halkael2317]

Love this advice! Yesterday, a four wheeler went off the road. A driver told us on the radio, another said "In not sure how, the roads are fine! I havent even taken off my cruise control!"... The roads were barely dusted white and it was -3°c. Assuming the roads were fine was possibly the last thing that driver assumed before hitting an icy corner! If you are going to assume anything, then assume they are NOT fine! It may save a life!! Driving fast in poor road conditions does not make you a better driver... knowing you shouldn't and slowing down does!

[@SmartTrucking]

Exactly right!

[@DrFruikenstein]

I've always been a Cruise Control type of driver, and I second everything mentioned... Especially using on dry roads. One thing that was mentioned is going slightly slower than the speed limit. That's just good driving in general, and it works. I usually use "Flow of traffic" when explaining it, but it's the same thing. There are always people cutting close, and the only way to maintain any kind of reasonable following distance is to make sure that the car in front is always pulling away from me. Not only does that help maintain following distance, but doing that also takes some of the stress out of driving. That's a nice little side effect. Thanks for the video.

[@joshkrause2977]

Another thing drivers need to understand, semi truck tires are only speed rated to 75 miles per hour. This means the manufacturer can only guarantee the tire safety to 75 miles per hour.

[@michaelwest359]

Something I learned early on was "slow and steady wins the race!" I have used cruise for most of the time I drove.

[@americanpatriot3638]

I was told by an old timer when i started driving "only drive as fast as you want to crash". Haven't crashed yet. Been driving 15 years...

[@russellvaughan1840]

absolutely correct...!!! slower is almost always the best..you said it all perfectly..

[@ynotjf]

Cruise Control reduces the drivers workload, it allows the driver to focus on keeping the truck between the lines and looking ahead without constantly looking down at the speedometer. I drive a Volvo that also auto decelerate/brakes so I can set the cruise to 1 mph below the speed limit and the target braking to 1 mph above the speed limit and rarely have to think about speed management, even on hills, great system! New drivers speed, experienced drivers don’t and make more money, go figure.

[@freightking2670]

I brought a 2018 kenworth t880 has no governor at all but i still cruise at 63-66. I learned it saves fuel and it actually puts less stress on myself. Everyone passing you and you'll see them again...

[@danielcristiangarcia2881]

Your my best mentor ever man I swear I'm tired of all these people talking about nothing but their personal life I mean you tell stories but they pertain to what we need to know

[@chronictwister]

Being limited to 65 sucks, I usually get behind someone that slows down when I'm behind them, and speeds up when I try to pass them. The sad part is, it's always tractor trailers

[@happycommentator6773]

I hear ya driver . I'm on the governor at 65 . When I notice a driver that is trying to pass me doing 66 or 67 I back out so they can expedite . No problem from me . I'm pushing buttons for crying out loud . Too bad other drivers don't have that kind of common courtesy .

[@floydfan5993]

always love the stories dave, driver's lounge legend. lol

[@7thequest]

I have driven a few years and I enjoy your videos. At first I thought you were going to be the typical "'know it all" but you are great teacher :)

[@KenworthofRichfield]

Some good advice. Being consistent is one of the keys to safe driving!

[@TheCalgarydoug]

I worked for a bug hauler in 95, the same guy who had the mail runs. He was a sleazeball of all sleazeballs. He had a warehouse so storage was a big part of his business, but if he saw some stuff he liked he'd stop sending bills to the customer hoping they'd forget to pay at which time he'd own the furniture. One customer had some high end wicker furniture which he sold and when they claimed on the insurance they found out he paid the claim by the pound. He ended up paying about 2 cents on the dollar for new furniture he sold at almost new price. In the late 60s the company I was working for, a steel hauler, had squealers (Tachograph) in all his trucks but he had given up using them because guys would spill coke on them and it would cost him to have them repaired. When I asked him for some cards for the one in my truck he was surprised, until I explained that they were admissible as evidence in court. I agree with you about speed controllers being a bad idea. People who have never been in a truck and have no idea what works and what doesn't is always a bad idea, as bad as people who never shoot a gun and don't like guns making laws about them.

[@SmartTrucking]

I probably shouldn't admit to this, but we used to blow a little cement powder in our tachographs and there'd be enough moisture in the air that it would eventually gum up the tach and make it read low, or not at all. Dave

[@TheCalgarydoug]

The company I'm talking about had one White with a 220 Cummins and a ten speed that I was driving one evening when I took my then wife for a ride, Hamilton to Richmond Hill. We used to have to go out the west end of the city because my boss refused to pay the toll on the Skyway bridge. From York boulevard to Guelph line was uphill all the way so getting to high gear with a full load often took that whole distance. I had just hit high gear when I got pulled over by Markel and his first question was "do you know how fast you were going. I told him the speedo said 53 mph to which he made a face. "Try again" he said. I told him the squealer agreed with the speedo and that was the truth. He got a bit angry and said "when you passed that Greyhound in the showoff lane you must have figured you were going faster than 53. I asked him how fast I was going according to him and he told me 76 mph. The next day I told my boss because I was sure he would find out unless he already knew and he said that he was sorry he didn't give me a heads up and that that truck had been clocked by radar at 98 miles per hour. I know it sounds kind of bullshitty that a 220 Cummins can do that bub Bob was not given to bullshit.

[@trilliumtire238]

I have been driving for 8 years now. But find I'm always learning new things in the trucking industry. Your videos have now become another learning experience for me. Thanks for the wonderful info. Keep the shiny side up.

[@SmartTrucking]

Thank you!

[@AdamFreasier1187]

Thank you. Trip planning always makes things easier!

[@davemartin8409]

20 years ago I was using cruse control in a 4 wheeler. I had to brake for city limits but I forgot to toggle off the Cruise Button a couple km later and it re-engaged. I was able to control the 4 wheeler but a valuable Lesson learned. 32 years with a clean drivers abstract. Experience is a good teacher. Don't over-rely on the features in your vehicle and lose engagement.

[@JP-jm9fy]

I’ve heard more than a few drivers say that they believed these trucks governed at 65 or whatever the company deems is a safe speed for their trucks are death traps. I can’t say I fully understand why they say it but they do. I suppose it could be because at a speed limit that a particular state says is safe for their roads the trucks can’t even do it anyway and somebody always fills the gap they keep between cars or makes some kind of radical movements in front of the truck cause we are moving slower than the other traffic. Who knows? I drive slow and I work slow and try to keep as much room as I can from other cars. So far it’s served me pretty well.

[@mattpaksi2356]

Good advice. Reminds me of some drivers telling me that using the jake brake in winter is ok. I never have used it in winter and never will.

[@35.Duluth]

I love your common sense. I’ve only been driving truck for five years. But I’ve been driving in snow and ice all my life. You my friend are explaining life lessons that every otr driver needs to listen to. I watch all your videos. Keep up the great work

[@SmartTrucking]

Thank you sir! We'll do our best! Dave

[@bluetruckin]

I absolutely agree, I've been on the road for just under a year. However, I've been able to stay safe by driving give under the limit. We should always be the slowest moving vehicles on the road. Stay safe out there!

[@jimwash4183]

Couldn't agree with you more about the speed limiters

[@davidkontze1620]

The European trucks that I drive here in New Zealand have both Cruise Control and a driver set Speed Limiter. I use the Cruise Control on the open road set just below the speed limit and set the Speed Limiter for in town and construction zones. The Speed Limiter is overridden if the gas pedal is pushed past the kick down position.

[@truckerzee9643]

I watched a video of yours , telling us when you drop your trailer and are pulling away from it to not pull all the way out until you know the landing gear is working . Thanks it saved my day

[@SmartTrucking]

Glad to help John! Dave

[@truckerdaddy-akajohninqueb4793]

Excellent mentorship example. I learned from my police training that cruise control is hazardous in winter, especially on icy roads. Cruise can also screw up the engine brake functionality. I giggle passing troopers because of my speed limiter. You can't catch me. 😇 104 kph. I feel completely safe at 104 kph thank you. Speed limiters control cowboy class 1 drivers. Especially thoze old guyz who think they're too good to be told

[@andrewkirwin6629]

Really good advice here thanks ! I also set cruise less than the limit ! Other trucks can pass and on undulating roads I’m also on the breaks less to stop truck exceeding speed limits

[@michaelbuck6535]

Whenever I'm nervous driving I don't use my cruise. I find that when my mind starts to tell me to slow down my foot will already have automatically let off on the fuel when I get nervous coming up to a corner or coming up to a situation on the road. I like to say that I also enjoy your videos

[@daveberkovits4976]

I agree with you sir. I see a lot of trucks and 4 wheelers riding other people’s bumpers. Always keeping a good space cushion. Is very important. NO to speed limiters on trucks. I also want to add that if used properly cruise control will help you get better mpg

[@myrnapagan3280]

I really love this guy. thanks for all your good safety tips.

[@mrj-charles6383]

Nice weather means road construction season. My company truck is 62 on the floor and and 66 with cruise. So even if not using cruise I will turn it on just so have that extra to pass with, Pretty bad now because most large carriers are governing at 65 so creates real issues with passing. My truck has a bendix sensor on the front so can not tailgate or records.

[@rfcsc]

Hello, Im an international trucker in Europe and here in Europe, all truck have speed limit (90km). We have a chaotic truck traffic in Europe, accidents every day, idle we didn't have the speed limiter, companies would pressure truck drivers to speed up to get faster to the client. Here in Europe wouldn't be a good thing not having a speed limiter

[@SuperLeica1]

About gaining time; driving through Germany You may drive fast lane 140 kmh (ca 95mph), but that craves many coffee-rests. If You find a truck going 65-70 mph (100kmh) You may just follow it, but take fewer stops. I tried both ways, result was ca 10-11 hours on the same distance. There´s sometime a 3rd quick lane, but don´t use it. The Porsches and else will be close to crash Your car´s behind.

[@johndouglass3691]

My experience as a mere four wheeler has taught me these same lessons; cruise is for dry pavement only, and if one has to interrupt the cruise control, one should turn the switch off rather than stomp the brake. However, I'm not your average four wheeler: I drive defensively and I can drive 3000 miles in a day. That's why I am considering getting in the saddle of an 18 wheeler.

[@SmartTrucking]

John, 3000 miles divided by 24 hours shows you averaging 125 mph without stopping for fuel. Dave

[@johndouglass3691]

Smart-Trucking.com. I'm thinking of starting trucking and I would love to have five minutes on the phone with you first. I understand why you don't name companies, publicly, but I sure could use some sound advice.

[@russellburnett7819]

I'm a solo driver for Swift. Now most major carriers have automatic trucks. My top speed for the truck is governed at 65. My personal top speed I'll go is 60. My slowest especially in California is 55. I've noticed I'm getting about 8.5 mpg and have most of the road all to myself.

[@Triggdarichwarrior]

Over here on the North east corridor, drivers(cars&trucks) seem to be in hurry to meet Good b/c they do the exact opposite. Glad to hear from a professional

[@johnedinger8343]

Thank you for your safety. I'm a new truck driver for an Upstate NY utility company. Our company is very safety conscious and with that, I make sure that I'm below the speed limit and use the cruise control to help me stay there.

[@tykellerman6384]

[@mrj-charles6383]

I was a bed bugger for a short while back in the 90's doing military moves. Most of the stuff we delivered was in crates from overseas. If we loaded the trailer I did the same thing marked everything as damaged when loading.

[@thunderkiss0000]

Bed bug hauling LOL

[@eddenoy321]

Frank C Bed bugs get free transportation all the time. It bugs me.

[@pointnIaugh]

I was a bed bugger for 25 years. Been hauling freight for the last 3 years now. I'm seriously considering going back to it. I'm fed up with the dumbness that shippers put me through at all these distribution centers. Seem like there's always a problem that wastes my time. In bed bugging shippers are usually happy to get there loads a week early. You do get some psychos every once in a while.

[@howardfortyfive9676]

I've had cruise control on my truck since 1990. Just like you Dave I drive about 3mph UNDER posted speed limit 4 the EXACT reasons you specified. 4 wheelers are ALWAYS speeding. I prefer having the fools way out in front rather than up my butt+ cops (good cops that is) can nab the speeders. Plus cops are *usually fishing when they ask "do you know how fast you were driving sir?"* Most ppl will admit guilt to cops. I *won't admit ANY guilt as it's my 5thA RIGHT.* I was stopped this way 23yr ago. "Yup had my cruise set 3mph UNDER" & cop turned & walked back to his car and THAT was THAT...

[@blaineruffing4396]

Speaking of speed control what do you do when you get a super trucker behind you in the mountains and he desides to try and push you even though your doing the speed limit? This happened to me when I was brand new and the only answer I ever got was drive faster.

[@bobbyknight1970]

As a truck driver, I never use cruise, because I think it's so much safer to drive with it off. When you drive a heavy big rig (semi) (especially if you have a heavy load) you don't want to take unnecessary chances of something going wrong, such as falling asleep at the wheel, or other unforeseen event. I don't even use the one in my car.

[@drjohnsonhungwell5115]

I drive a glider truck logging a 2015 t800 Kenworth 550 caterpillar 2050 torque will top out around 100 miles per hour but I rarely drive over the speed limit by very much it's just nice knowing you to have this nice knowing you have it in case you need it. I drive slower in the rain especially on the interstate or in high traffic. I was a former over-the-road truck driver for a few years and we had speed limited trucks would run 62 miles per hour with your foot on the floor I don't agree with speed limited trucks under 76 miles an hour.

[@LastExile1989]

I also like driving slower so the cagers merging on the highway pass you. Sometimes I'm stuck and can't merge into the middle lane and some people merging will not speed up to pass you.

[@dagirurusov4100]

God bless you, sir.

[@beyondartists7641]

You always have great and interesting stories.

[@roadrash9598]

You do a great job on your channel..thanks for the info.

[@SmartTrucking]

Thank you sir! Dave

[@63stratoman]

I usually tap my clutch pedal to disengage cruise control. I agree with you about disengaging with the brake but what other option do automatic transmission equipped trucks have? And friends don’t let friends drive governed trucks!

[@SmartTrucking]

I like that!!

[@tntfreddan3138]

When I'm in my car I rarely ever use cruise control. I have a 60km commute (60km to work and 60km home) and a lot of that is highway but for some reason I almost forget I have cruise control and just use my foot. When I'm driving at work, I only use cruise control on highway or wide roads. The road might be 2-lane but if each lane is only 3 meters I'm keeping it switched off. No, our trucks are limited to 90km/h (55mph), but they're usually 24 meters long (18 meters if they're semis, but with link they can be 25 meters), 2.5 meters wide not counting the mirrors, 4.5 meters high (4.0 if they're not Swedish or Finnish) and can weigh up to 64 tons or 140 000lbs. Semi trucks with a single rear axle can weigh up to 40 tons while with double rear axle they can weigh up to 44 tons. Container chassis (trailers for containers) usually have their rear axles further back and the trucks that haul these are usually slightly extended as well, so those can generally weigh up to 50 tons. At least my could when I drove those combinations.

[@bennyrobinson3500]

Speed does not cause accidents, it merely determines the severity!

[@trajan9101]

[@oillease1881]

I agree about speed limiters. To be able to accelerate hard and be around a hazardous driver on 2 lane roads. An idiot behind is better than one in front.

[@gavnonadoroge3092]

I drive at such safe speed, that a swift truck passed me on a highway

[@fergynet2225]

What actually happens when you break traction with cruise control? I know what it feels like when jaking on snow and ice. Does traction control interfere? I have watched you for 4 years now. Driving for three. Thanks for your videos.

[@Armannortheast]

I’m owner operator. I lock my truck at 68 mph. I’m using always cruse control. I like to go slow safe gas and safe

[@wafflehatjoe420]

I have to agree with you when it comes to governing speed. Especially governing below the posted speed limits. Not only does it make it hard to safley get around the slow movers like motorhomes doing 20km/h below the speed limit, it makes the truck a moving road hazard. 4-wheelers are a big enough issue on multi-lane highways doing the speeds they go. But get them on a narrow 2 lane road like the ones I run up and down in northern British Columbia it gets extreamly dangerous. They end up getting trapped behind a governed trucks who are governed to 90km/h when the limit is 100/110km/h and they are unable to pass in the safe zones they start doing stupid things and passing on double solids blind corners. I also think automatics are a plauge in the trucking industry. Can't count how meny trucks in the winter have spun out on hills that my 18speed has no problem bare footing up, all because the computer decided to drop 2 full gears when a half would have done. keep up the great videos dave!

[@darrellmatthies6895]

Nice info but remember no such thing as a "accident "! There is almost always a underlying cause to a motor vehicle collision.

[@michellandry714]

I watch all your videos. I think you are the best in the field ,

[@rogerlewis1361]

The truck I drive can run up to 75, but when I run with the cruse I set it at 70...the speed limit in most of the northeast is 65, even though most of the 4 wheelers run about 75/80.

[@milagresfernandes1572]

Thanks sir good advice

[@ShawnaGraham50]

My KW has adaptive cruise control. It’s really nice and easy

[@tedinstead9642]

Thanks Dave! Cruise control is great but I only use it when I'm fresh on the road otherwise it makes me sleepy Speed limiters are not good at all I was in the situation when I had to pass a semi and it really sucks not to be able to do it fast enough because it wouldn't let you go above 70

[@thomassinclair1836]

Cruise control is a good friend of mine

[@smoothshifter7348]

Those speed limiters create a lot of frustration on the driver and other road users. It's just an accident waiting to happen, something law makers do not understand about what we deal with on a daily basis. Just like the lack of parking and eld mandate.

[@J.R.in_WV]

I’ve got the old school cruise: pull the hand throttle out about half way in the big hole. My truck will only run about 68 anyway.

[@danielpassent3937]

yes u r right but some time got no luck..6 wks ago had a accident when was driving just 30 miles an hour and went up the bridge..half way thru drove onto pothole n cse of thin sheet of ice n snow lost truck control so finally came off the bridge 30 feet down,,,broken my spin got 6 stiches on my head ..luckily survived

[@hotsoup1001]

I'm not a trucker, but was wondering what you truck drivers think about new trucks and adaptive cruise control that automatically speeds up and slows down to maintain the following distance. I would think it would be awesome to have on interstate driving.

[@SmartTrucking]

I think it would be scary on slippery roads! Dave

[@bernardbredbennerjr8805]

4 wheelers need to learn too, the faster you drive, the quicker things happen. I always drove a couple mph slower than traffic, they would always be moving away from me. Easier to keep that safety zone.

[@moeshouse575]

many years ago my uncle was driving. and came in to an ice patch with the cruse on. it was a 63 Chrysler with a posi track. he was lucky. could have been very bad.

[@dennisaustin6058]

I kinda veered off the topic for this video, anyway, I play a game called American Truck Simulator where the PC disc will allow you to plat it like a game, it will let you combine a mouse and keyboard, or if your a serious gamer with a lot of money will let you attach a kit for I think is $300.00 that includes a steering wheel a clutch and brake pedal, and a shifter and will let you drive like a real truck! , My friend has it on a 50 inch flatscreen and it looks like your in the truck, so I triedi it out an was doing ok then my friend said miss a gear and look what it does so I did it gave me a grinding sound and the shifter shook I am guessing it was a force feedback shifter, good practice but I do not play it enough to get that kit now, this game has 3 ways to park a trailer, Artificial Intelligence traffic pick up and drop off points, weather like rain, random road events, construction site traffic detours,and roads being worked on with construction lights.

I’m a driver myself, and I always wonder how many crashes were caused by cruise control and drivers falling asleep

[@oillease1881]

I and other operators wonder why cruise will pull harder than the pedal. Nothing sucks more than speed limiters. The frustration of not being able to get to a certain speed is very dangerous.
