[@justinformed7367]

After explaining that it was very difficult to reverse while towing over any great distance they still refused to move. I got out of the van, locked it and began walking off. The driver soon got the message and grudgingly reversed to 20 yards back into the passing point.

As an HGV driver this is my worst nightmare! There’s such limited rear visibility and so many blind spots, and dangerous if there was a car coming up close behind you.

Those huge vehicles terrify me (reason why is shown in one of my videos), despite having travelled in his cab from time to time when I was a kid. I drive a lot more now we've moved to the South West and oh boy these roads are narrow! I have been down the odd single track road like what you're driving on in this video and I really don't like them! Well, they'd be good if they were one way! Still, I'm mortified when I meet a lorry on them but I would never have done what she did. I would have reversed for sure and prayed that no-one would be behind me, least of all another lorry or even a tractor!

We encountered a similar problem during one of my HGV drivers licence lessons. This woman just stopped a few meters shy of our truck and threw her hands in the air like "what am I gonna do now" and gestured at us to reverse. So I - being super new to truck driving and not exactly looking forward to reverse on a narrow road that my instructor had specifically picked for its narrowness to show me how to navigate tight bends - looked at my instructor and went: "Oh god. I don't know if I can get back to that intersection half a mile back." And he just looked at me as if I just told him, I didn't know how to bring Elvis back and said: "Reverse? Are you mad? Her shoebox is a quarter our size. She'll be reversing." And what should I say.. It took half an hour to get her moving, but move she did :D

I'm female, can drive, park, reverse as good as any male, if not better. If I'd been driving this HGV the only thing I would have done would be to drive it up to the bumper if the Vauxhall and switch the engine off for a nice nap (after popping out the cab to ask the driver why he was incapable of reversing or orsenting his own argument!). Rude rude arrogant back seat driver if a woman! Can't speak for her Arse, except for the fact that she talks out of it.

+Lottie Bronte What the video doesn't show is the terrified look on the drivers face because she thought I was going to make her reverse. I did feel the drivers mother did come out with the wrong attitude but two wrongs don't make a right....right! And I did get the job done with the least amount of agro. Cheers ff.

+Lottie Bronte hahah and you would probably STILL be there to this day bumper to bumper. whereas the fox got home..

[@simonjackson5941]

Am I wrong in thinking that the driver never got out of the car.....only the passenger.

[@franticstorm7411]

No way would I have reversed the truck! Engine off and feet up!

[@gtxviper]

Cracking bit of driving mate

[@carlcockroft7077]

Can’t believe he actually reversed the HGV around blind corners

[@fastasfox]

There was no bend.....and the woman (the drivers mother) went behind to stop traffic.
