Hi luke I agree with you when people are learning to drive they should be taught about lorries I am not a lorry driver but since watching your videos and others I now know how much room you all need so it's been very useful certainly a very different video thank you for showing us

Only a year late! But there again I only found your channel yesterday, it makes great viewing, I've already seen you drop at a few places I visit. All I drive is a car or a transit, so not quite in the same league as you :-) Regarding your comment on car driver training, many years ago, about 50, I used to hitch hike around the country and got lots of lifts in HGVs, some of the drivers would talk through what they were doing and why, I learned a heck of a lot from them and some of it has actually stuck! ALL motorists should do a day in an HGV as an observer as part of their training. PS thinking of Arena, if they ever ask you to go to Queens Club, tennis in London on a similar job, DON'T do it! Imagine your most nightmarish job and then double the pain. Thank you for producing your videos, most interesting, educational even!

hi people could anyone help me please, how do you work out the pay load over axles please to equal it all outi have just started an hgv course any help appreciated.
@lewismarriott24682 жыл бұрын
the weight of the load times the distance the load is from one of the axles; and divide by the wheelbase of the vehicle. So If you were to place a 8 tonne load on a truck 2 metres from the rear axle and the truck had a 4 metre wheelbase. It would be 8 x 1 divided by 4 So the answer is 2 Which means 2 tonnes of the load goes over the front axle. The remaining 6 tonnes would go over rear axle.

Surely you shouldn’t be lifting the unit suspension up like that when dropping a trailer? It just makes it harder for the next driver and increases the risk of the pin being missed. Should drop it at level height, pull forward slightly disengaging the pin and then lower the unit suspension and pull out completely and reset the suspension. Not to sound like I’m judging you but it was just an observation. Also the driver who dropped that trailer previously should have engaged the trailer brake. Good reversing though
@lukecinahgv2 жыл бұрын
No mate I’ve always been told to raise it slightly. Especially when loading, and when re attaching to any trailer raise the back end up once I’m under. This way it protects your wheel arches, your loading ramps and doesn’t get 5th wheel greese on the front of the trailer. Always raise suspension and then lower it as you come out. That’s what I do anyway. And yes they should have put trailer brake on. Unfortunately not a lot of people do.

Because i delivered more the what they needed “just in case” So I ended up taking alot of stuff back again. Also, we were paid by the hour for how long we were there, ie, boss would have been laid a flat rate for the job + x amount per hour waiting time. Probably £50 an hour or something. In other words, the longer I’m there waiting, the more he’s being paid and the less I’m driving so more profit

Hi Luke . I have said many times the best drivers are those that drive TRUCKS CARS MOTOR CYCLES & BICYCLES . WHY = Because they know what’s going on and understand the problems other drivers have ! It’s like company’s that build a new warehouse don’t put up signs to instruct drivers & have a big parking lot for cars . And a piddling little drive way for truckers. They just don’t think TRUCKS !!!!
