Containers and Country Lanes

[@techrja]

I remember staying in the Hilton hotel in 2018 for a couple of nights

[@ripongsman]

Another good video thanks - if you love countryside come to "gods country" North Yorkshire

[@scotthibbert3658]

😂😂😂 that speed check was funny ‘ 2 old men and radios’ Great vid 🤘❤️

[@edwardbarnett6571]

I don't know how you handle those curved mirrors that do not give you the correct distance.

[@jackharrison6771]

Good one Raul. Yeah give me countryside more than city. It's grat how you position to show us up close, how containers are moved removed. Thanks m8.

[@kubacuba]

Mate you're a lifesaver. Thank you. I'm about to start driving class 1 for a first time and they are putting me on the containers. 🙏 thanks to u I may just figure it out. 🤞

[@Raul689]

Thanks pal glad i can help 👍👍

[@vanontherun2843]

Great video as ever Raul, I really enjoy your container VLOG's. It looks like you had a bit of a frustrating day with lot's of sitting around, a lot like my week as a courier. I agree the British countryside is just beautiful, being out and about and going new places is the best thing about working in transport imo, sure beats looking at a computer screen in an office. Spring is almost here then it will be even more glorious! I'm sorry they gave you a MAN and not the Scania like last time. Looking forward to your next VLOG 👍.

[@Raul689]

You are absolutely right pal! Thank you 👍👍👍

[@dullelf6]

Incredibly cool Crane shots! Keep up the brilliant vlogs!

[@Raul689]

Thanks

Another great blog Raul, keep them coming 👍

[@eddmorrell90]

Great videos Raul, you tell it like it is! I'm binge watching your videos to catch up lol. I'm in Scotland and I head south now and again, I could deliver to you some Tennants lager as a thank you!

[@Raul689]

Just bring a pallet and drop it on the m57 for me 😄

[@dylantrinder1571]

You’re right, the British countryside is so pretty and most definitely clean in comparison to towns and cities. Great footage as usual Raul, thanks for sharing and I’m looking forward to seeing you soon.

[@BigTone0777]

Great video as ever Raul. Your videos are making me want to go into containers when I pass my test, I don't even know why or what appeals about it but I'm drawn to it 😅 I pissed myself at the community speed watch, hilarious man!

[@Raul689]

I like containers for some reason 😄

[@joshhowells912]

Really enjoyed mate (: Made me laugh about the community speed check area :D

Great vlog mate I always wondered how those trombone trailer worked👍.

[@royrowlands352]

Great piece of filming Raul 👌what’s the called it’s brilliant

[@relax-tn1hx]

Haha, I drive a 18 tonne MAN! Along with: the schizophrenic gearbox, the turning circle of a cruise ship, the massive mirror blinds pots, the huge steering wheel off the Mary Celeste; I find I keep accidentally pressing all the buttons on the wheel when I'm manoeuvring! 😅

[@Raul689]

😄😄😄😄😄😄 legend 100% right

[@Xantec]

i used to drive a MAN TG-L, had sensors and such and a gearbox that sometimes would not find a gear. yes like the 18t MAN it had the turning circle of an oil tanker. M.A.N became the acronym for "Makes Annoying Noises"

[@TheGamingMEL0N]

Very good video mate, recently started trucking and am hating the stress of it, especially with all the loading / unloading, sad to say ive quit my job with the agency and am shortly starting training to be a bus driver instead. Hope you are well.

[@Raul689]

Sorry to hear that but i completely understand your choice. To much stress for peanuts money

[@arturoornelas8540]

Your video popped up on my recommended. I'm a otr driver in the states, and man trucking in that part of the world looks amazing. Does anyone know if he has a Facebook, I wanna add em. I'm real curious how everything works as far as trucking in the UK. Awesome vids as well, u got yourself a texas vato sub.

[@Raul689]

Thank you very much vato 👍👍 I find it funny how you guys in the states find trucking in europe interesting, as much as we all europeans dream of driving in the US Thank you for your support 👍👍👍

[@malcolmcampbell8162]

[@jakhaughton1800]

Community Speed Check areas have speed guns operated by local residents. Pain in the árse

[@EGCC4284]

So position 3 is only if the 20 foot is loaded ? I wonder what the difference makes ?

[@Raul689]

To be honest i never bother where o put the 20ft. Don't think it makes that much of a difference. Altho in position 4 the trailer is a bit more easier to reverse

[@EGCC4284]

Do you have to weigh out of the container terminals and do they give you the delivery paperwork or does that directly sent to the transport company via email then to driver. There must be mountains of paperwork and wonder how freight terminals deal with the 1000s of boxes they handle everyday

[@Raul689]

It's all online now. The containers get weight only on entry in each port of the world so you already know how heavy they are. No paperwork from the docks It's all online. We just have one delivery note for the costumers to sign and thats it 👍

[@johnbrady6756]

Hi Raul,great vlog love you'r joke two old fellas each end road checking speed especially with walkie talkies 😂. 👌 I see you don't give seal to customer, back in 1980/90s drivers not allowed to remove seals someone from firm took them off in case of load not correct.

[@Raul689]

Some costumers want to check the seal themselves but usualy they tell you to not open the doors. Just depends on the costumer i guess. Thanks John

[@davidmidmer2770]

Some small villages with a main road through them the residents complain to their parish council about speeding traffic so the police gives them a speed camera its not there's to keep it goes to other council though out Kent you don't know when they will be there. It's usually a three off them (local residents) they taking down regs you then get letter from the police no fine no points just a warning the next village along us Brasted gets one my wife has had two letters

[@Raul689]

So i guess if you are reported to many times you will finally get fined?

[@davidmidmer2770]

Probably but she does slow down through Brasted now just in case they are there

[@EGCC4284]

When you get into that port in Liverpool and join the queue, how do you get called from the queue to the lane for unload and reload ? How do you know when it’s your turn

[@Raul689]

It's a first come first served basis. You have to figure out where is the end of the que. If not sure just ask. And then when it's your turn just go to an empty pay. Or "pad" how they call them

[@stugill4513]

cheers 4 the great vid as always m8 arnt man gearbox s the werst thing ever

[@kevinjose838]

Really enjoyed mate. Have a great weekend. By the way which one do you prefer for better fuel efficency? Volvo, Scania, Mercedes ,Daf or MAN

[@Raul689]

Thanks mate. I think the Mercedes is the best at fuel efficiency an i understand they are very reliable aswell. But as driving them i prefer the Scania

You need a card for Seaforth one for Felixstowe and a safety certificate one for London Gateway another one for Immingham Docks. Southampron you write an online test. Tilbury has no test

When's your next video pal

[@Raul689]

I think next week pal. I'm only doing trunk jobs this week. Nothing interesting

[@4TheRecord]

20:35 It's just a bunch of old people who are bored with their life so they spend most of the day stood in the same spot holding up a speed camera and writing number plates down on a notepad. They can't issue any fines, the most they can do is pass your numberplate and the speed onto the police who can only give you "words of advice". This is because the speed that's displayed on their speed guns cannot be used as evidence of speed due to the fact they don't calibrate their speed guns and don't have a calibration certificate. There's a village not far from me where there's always 3 old people stood about pointing speed guns at people. They've got nothing better to do with their life than to waste it standing outside all day everyday. What makes it even sad is the fact they stand on a road that's short distance and connects two roundabouts so speeding is impossible.

[@Raul689]

Thanks for shedding some light into this 😁

[@4TheRecord]

@@Raul689 No problems :)

[@Raul689]

Wow that's good to know 😲

[@4TheRecord]

@A320 REMF Did you ask to see the calibration certificate? I worked security one place where we had these hand held speed guns and they were pretty much useless after a time. You could aim it at a tree and it would show the tree moving at 15mph.

I think you should learn proper English language, I don’t see why you need to use so much bad language especially as youngsters watch you tube.
