scary when you consider the rules over driver hours and the tacho given how easy it is to "rest" without resting.

My compliments, Scott, for handling this LHD * artic absolutely without problems, in the UK. You would fit right in with my drivers in Canada/USA, because we deliver many self-propelled RHD vocational rigids from manufacturers to dealers; from dealers to end-users and/or between two entities. (* LHD = Left Hand Drive / RHD = Right Hand Drive)...the Volvo Refuse truck you were talking about at the very end of the video, is a similar type that we deliver frequently in North America, but built on Mack chassis (technically also a Volvo, since Mack is owner by the VolvoGroup). Curb-side pickup refuse trucks, are now practically always manufactured with just one steering position "on the wrong side", to allow drivers easier maneuverability while manually picking-up the refuse (known as "garbage" in Canada/USA).

Have actually driven on Route 66, albeit it was less than two miles. We were based in Phoenix, Az, and we headed north to visit the Grand Canyon, and crossed R66 at Flagstaff. Enjoyed your video Scott😂

[@Jason.988]

What an awesome V8 Scott suits you 👍🚚🚚

[@gazsimulations]

That V8 is a beautiful piece of machinery.

[@colinracheljustpootling7468]

anyone else notice the pony on the roundabout ;) class. Tidy truck, but better over the water. Good vlog mate. Cheers Colin

[@AnthonyValentine-vm1yc]

I fink your going ga-ga mate. It was definitely a unicorn.

[@ScottAndrews]

assuming you're on about the end. They are left around the area regularly there

[@Paul-mv3ym]

Great video scott, you are definitely 1st class at what you do, keep the vids coming mate, all the very best.

[@ScottAndrews]

Cheers Paul

[@sardav160479]

Great video Scott, remember once before when running to Belgium after a full day's driving got to the factory hoping to drop the tank for the site workers to offload, " drive you have to unload and we need it now" got on the bay tried to sleep but impossible with the noise from the factory started too see loads of rabbits running around this grass area wasn't sure if I was seeing things, when I pulled outside the factory it was pitch black and I went to do a spinny on what I thought was waste ground and nearly drove into a canal

[@ScottAndrews]

Well that nearly ended badly

[@gazsimulations]

I love the cotswolds apart from the time my van broke down 😢

[@Transfromers_fan756]

Hi Scott good Sunday morning to u from Trinidad 🇹🇹👍

[@PaulJackson007]

Food Festival,Who were the main Act there? The Food Fighters

[@andrewdavidson5070]

Hi Scott Andrews I love the v8

[@andrewdavidson5070]

Hi Scott Andrews I love the scania truck that you are driving

[@leerees6686]

Wow! wasn't expecting Clydach to make an appearance in the video! Plus Download dog would be none too impressed with you talking about visiting different festivals......!!😂👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@Gunniboysexplorers]

That is smart truck and there is no harm in helping out saves you standing around waiting

[@DustMite-s5u]

Awesome buddy hope you enjoyed it your truck looks amazing.take care and good health to you Phil 👍

[@jessmm3rcr328]

Great video and cracking truck love the paintwork

[@elizabethmaybrown6715]

Hi Scott, finally caught up with your videos. I've been in a Volvo and they are very comfy, I will be in a Volvo later this month doing my class 1 training with Taunton training centre, most of the driving is done in and around Bridgwater, worst roundabout is at the end of St. John's Road going into Westonzoyland Road 😮 tight is an understatement 😂. I think I have already said that I am in a tipper now, 5 months now and loving it, I know you weren't keen on the bags with Greene's but I think I could enjoy that as it would be day work and since I have two kids under 16 I can't go tramping yet. Good practice with swapping trailers and reversing too, with a trailer I can see over better than full curtain sider 😊 have a good week

[@christinegibbins6105]

That was fun Scott, love the photograph of the truck. Take care.

[@ScottAndrews]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@jencook2362]

Great video, nice truck. You adapted so quickly to the left hand drive. Well done. X

[@ScottAndrews]

Thanks. Had one in Europe a few times so not totally green

[@andrep8287]

@@ScottAndrews ...beg to differ, since driving a LHD in Europe is no different than driving a RHD in the UK....so your European stint didn't really help you for this filmed UK run in the Route-66 Scania 😉

[@AngelaMcMenamin]

You should leave sunglasses on right side of dash board for peoples reaction looking for driver 😂

[@AviationAviation]

I am very impressed with the scania v8 Scott What a good old scania pal👋🏻

[@chrishines6048]

Nice to see you driving a left hand drive V8 makes more fun to drive in the UK

[@ScottAndrews]

Definitely more interesting

[@MrDbone75]

A very good Tuesday morning to you sir

[@patschrisnach9331]

Hi Scott, did you say you were in Luxembourg? I live there, where have you been that you had to challenge in reversing? Hope it wasn't to bad coming here... Keep it rolling, Mate - Cheers

[@Jarek12781]

Great to see you finnaly drive lefthand! haha Greetings from Poland!

[@ScottAndrews]

[@andrewjames9963]

[@BIGV710]

[@dougwilson1769]

Great video

[@NapierNimbus]

Great video, love that V8 audio, as always nailed the reverse, awesome high beams

[@ScottAndrews]

Gotta love those lights haha

[@stephenmurray5684]

Hi Scott, was the guy taking delivery one of your school mates ? Great video.

[@ScottAndrews]

Yes it was

[@TruckerMRB]

Excellent 👌...full concentration...lol...Good man ...

[@AdmPugh]

Love the video Scott. That DAF c challenging, came in well, when you did the reverse. I wounded as the lorry was left hand drive have they unstructured her as she sneed to have more power than the one you drove at greens.

[@ScottAndrews]

Not as much power as the S650 I had. It was slowing down a bit on the hills with weight on but she did well

[@martingibbs9277]

Very smart, can't beat the sound of a V8 👍

[@ScottAndrews]

Sounds lovely

[@timwalker629]

Good video Scott.

[@ScottAndrews]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@katiemace8864]

[@edwardmccallum8390]

Hi Scott love the video keep trucking and stay safe mate

[@ScottAndrews]

[@jameswilliamson4728]

Do you prefer your old Scania S650 or Scania 530S Scott and thanks 👍 again for your road 🛣️ videos.

[@garethpotts2376]

I’m interested now, if you were taking kit back to magnum or SR

[@davidheap880]

Liked the Video Scott. Was it your old mate? Good job on the left hook. The Scania had some poke for Birdlip.

[@ScottAndrews]

Yeah it was. Nice to see him

[@gezkeable6220]

Nice truck .your the man .cheers

[@ScottAndrews]

Thanks 👍

[@marinusdekker6707]

Very nice looking Truck

[@ScottAndrews]

It sure is!

[@ScamEmail-w9p]

Goes over to the dock on the bridge “it’s beautiful” Us locals - It’s a pile of shit! 🤣🤣

[@OllieGordonRump]

As I suspected when I saw your FB Post.. you were picking up and dropping off at my mates company!

[@DTWTheWanderingMuzungu]

Relatively painless! Right we need to send you to a proper festival in the middle of nowhere then.

[@ScottAndrews]

Bring it on! 😂💪

[@stephenwilkinson2030]

Just wondering was it your old school mate at the delivery, nice vlog Scot.

[@ScottAndrews]

Yeah It was. Was good to see him

[@nickhoward9343]

What a beast

[@purplegary]

Loved the different perspective of what it's like driving a LHD here. Appreciate the title was to attract viewers but it gave away your little comedy at the beginning too much 😋

[@ScottAndrews]

Attracting viewers doesn't seem to be doing so well atm haha

[@stephenhunter70]

Welcome to "event work" where you to will work 24hrs straight!!

[@andrewsmith7687]

Was it your mate from school? At the drop off

[@talltexan4710]

There’s no laws there on how long you can drive or be up there

[@ehsnils]

Put a huge dummy doll in the passenger seat. At least someone would get a surprise.

[@audibell]

Its it from Germany?

[@ScottAndrews]

Not sure, I'll check if I ever get it again.

[@JamesPyke-z2z]

Funny enough I drive through Buford on those roads to get to Clarksons farm on Saturday

[@neilarmitage6632]

It's noisy

[@neo_x96]

Oww V8
