"I Told Them Not To Send A BLOODY HUGE Truck" | Slipped Load | Tight Lanes | Stuck in Mud

[@spyglass123]

i would never trust a customer saying "we have had big trucks down here before" lol

[@KevTee]

Nope, that's the point I was making too 😂

[@nurburgringobsessed5722]

Get that a lot on the 8 wheelers, but they don’t turn like anything else 🤣

[@thefodenproject]

Yep had that old chestnut many a time 😂

[@MajorTom6]

Oh yes. Someone who hasn't seen your truck, and also knows nothing about trucks, telling you that you'll fit down there, 'no problem mate'. Hahahaha

[@wetlettuce4768]

Usually their idea of big in these parts is one of those stubby oil tankers that were designed to get to remote places.

[@illusionuk]

If you wonder why you get more bad days than good days, it's because you're like me and you're damn good at your job. They know they can throw the toughest, most tricky jobs at you and you'll still get them done the first time around and professionally to boot. It's a shame in the world we live in that those who cannot be bothered or slack off get the easier ride because employers will give them the easy stuff so they don't mess up.

[@DJ-Daz]

I was about to say the exact same thing. It never ceases to amaze me how many drivers complain, and tell the office what they will and won't do... it's should be the other way around. You are there to work, only illegal work shouldn't be done.

[@chiefinspectorduvall6073]

Too many slackers

[@Daggerwin]

Very skilled driving! You are very patient :)

[@KevTee]

Thanks mate, privilege to have you watching 👌

[@boilaknezzi8974]

Hey Dagger!

[@Cjpikey]

Hi dagger I love your vids 😂 would of these thought I would have seen you here

[@adamleeding2023]

KevTee my dad is a class 1 artic driver I’ve seen it all with my dad as a child in the school holidays going to places like this I had to a few times get out and navigate him back I’ll always remember those days

[@jamieprior1340]

Hey dagwin u into trucking

[@KevTee]

I just want to clarify that the planning of this delivery was no fault of the haulage company, the company would of taken the same precautions I did and at no point were we informed the delivery was unsuitable for an artic. It was a breakdown of communication between the customer and suppliers. Cheeeeeers

[@barrypatterson1221]

You done brilliant getting a artic down a narrow lane like that. Love the way you have you camera. loving your vlogs

[@rossmcgarrie9787]

KevTee I agree you did absolutely brilliant getting a artic along the narrow country lane’s as I kind of knew ur boss would not have sent you along there in ur usual lorry 🚛 as you would have been given not a van for the day but class 2 or whatever you call it not a full size lorry 🚛 but you would have got something a lot shorter for the day Pal.

[@chris77777777ify]

Should of asked them at the Junction

[@andrewcassidy7795]

Excellent piece of driving mate any body else would have come out with a flat bed trailer n a convertible tractor unit. 😄. Look forward to next video n camera angle behind u is great.

[@rossmcgarrie9787]

Andrew Cassidy I agree it is great as Kevtee has had it at the perfect angle as he had at same angle when he came up to God’s country my home country Bonny Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@nasa1985]

You have anxiety control on another level Kev! Completely unsuitable for an artic, but thanks to your brilliant driving you made it. Top driving right there.

[@messerschimdt9900]

I love this video! It shows a lot. I get to see the how the English countryside looks,and your excellent driving skills along with your humor and patience when in a stressful situation. I don't know how you backed that rig up,but damn you did an excellent job. Better than any tv show!

[@Simon-st76]

I was mentally knackered watching you doing that. You sir are a true legend. I have been in that situation my self. And when I got home it took me forever to sleep as it was stuck in my mind .

[@mikeclifton7778]

The drop was 24 pallets of stone, the return load was a curtainsider full of firewood! Good going sir!

[@KevTee]

😂😂😂

[@truckercowboyed2638]

Take home firewood for the woodstove lol

[@daveevans2261]

Well done Kev you have earned your wages today , very professional driving that gaffer owes you more than a coffee for looking after his truck. 👍🇬🇧🍻

You're not churning up the grass mate, you're providing a free lane widening service!

[@keithmartin1328]

If anyone said driving a lorry is easy, show them the video

[@keithmartin1328]

Sorry this video

[@timslocum145]

I mean all u do is sit and drive i mean how hard can it be i mean like there's no one out there that likes cut you off or anything. Nah im just kidding i know how difficult this job is im a trucker I'm the states

[@erykszkaradzinski2961]

I had same situation a month ago, i said literally "this road is not good enough for HGV" but dude in office had f***** google maps in his hand, and pushed me to go there :D reversing 4 miles with a trailer is something that u will never forget :D

[@andrejszzzz]

I have 4 months experience and i go much narrow roads and driving is nothing It’s not easy but with his experience no problem

[@SuperJrjames]

I never seen a less stressed driver then you Kev keep it up for your health

[@KevTee]

I need a different job for my health 😂

[@chrishatfield4424]

you are a epic driver, I felt anxiety watching, that A road must of felt like a motorway.

[@markfranklin4150]

Kev, that was some serious skill there. No way would I have done that.

[@peterchapman5025]

A true king of the road driving skills are second to none Kev many drivers would think twice about doing that delivery brilliant hats off to you

[@kynijava817]

Much respect from a dutch trucker! I can almost cry if i imagine how your cab looks after all those branches..

[@naddy37]

Some people would of freaked out reversing down that lane in a car!! Absolute full respect to you.

[@andrewkistell4446]

Well done getting that delivery there hope you showed your boss the footage and got a thank you from him , and it's never good when they told you we have had big trucks here before then when you get there they say ooh never had one as big as this here before

[@KevTee]

Yeah usually it's the bin lorry and I have to tell them I'm X2 of a bin lorry 😂😂

[@MrSaemichlaus]

Ah yes, the typical customer who has been through there with their wheelbarrow, so "the lorry should do just fine", haha

[@joemengler1666]

Your smashing it Kev, nearly 100k views, You deserve it mate 👍🏻 Driving these vehicles is a skill, I don’t care what anybody says. You are what the industry needs.

[@Elmacheto]

Wow.. this was the best driving I have ever seen! Great job mate!

[@andymcafee8550]

Cool, calm & collected, all in a days work for a competent professional driver. Good job sir!

[@davidharlem6824]

OMG! This is a tribute to your AMAZING driving skill and your professionalism. One has to admire you!

[@KevTee]

Thank you sir 👍

[@bubs34uk87]

Credit where credit is due that looked stressful but also very skillful driving

[@jdaley197931]

Well done for keeping your cool. On that job. I hope Burdens keep a list of roads never to go down again.

[@davidlawrenson7542]

Ahhh mate I was cringing all through that vlog. I’ve been in the same kind of situation and it’s not a good feeling and very very stressful. I gave up (well forced to after a couple of heart attack’s ) truck driving 2 years ago and don’t miss it one little bit. Enjoy watching your vlogs they are ace and keep up the good work.

[@KevTee]

Thanks David, enjoy bringing you along for the ride 👍

[@arthurgreenway1369]

Kev, this was one hell of a job. Well done on delivery & big👍👍on the reverse! I've done a long reverse in a 49 seater coach but nothing as hard as that one. Cheeeers

[@trevorpitt5883]

From one ex-professional driver to another that young man was a bloody brilliant piece of driving. Your patience was exemplary.

[@pcjtech]

Just watched this twice and still can't believe you managed to do that delivery, it now makes the new job look like a walk in the park, top driving!!

[@KevTee]

Haha you can kind of appreciate why I'm loving the new job, bit less stressful 😂😂

[@blackhill6426]

I’ve got an interview as a vehicle assessor so I thought I’d watch a few videos on trucks . I found Kevs channel and it’s fu***** brilliant . Can’t believe I’m spending my free time watching a guy driving a truck . You need brass balls for that job . Respect 👍.

[@Woody74fm]

I have been down many narrow lanes on deliveries but I drive a van, I hate them in that so to see you doing that journey, well all I can say is hats off, getting through those gates as well!!!

[@hazzagawa]

Wow. Nice driving. I think with a lot of jobs you remain calm on the outside when inside your mind and guts are twisting. Well done

[@nivikb]

That was some of the best driving I've seen. Well done and keep up the good work. If you're working through the C19 crisis, thank you.

[@lanehogger1532]

Hey Kev, brilliant video. You are definitely the best trucker youtuber. Bad days make for great content but so do the nice runs to Scotland.

[@KevTee]

Cheers mate, it would be pretty boring if everyday went smoothly 😂

[@euansemple]

That reverse was knackering just to watch! Give me Central London any day.

[@nigel9843]

Wow you certainly had a difficult day, your driving skills are amazing.

[@railman6868]

Another master class of driving Kev, under massive pressure and concentration. You said you were stressed inside but came across as Mr.Cool !! Fascinating videos as always, full of fun and top tips for other drivers. most appreciated. You sure earned that Coffee.

[@smiliebean2267]

More patience than me I would have lost my shit honestly all the roads should have signage saying no vehicles above a certain size making you go down that was simply stupid

[@MrJtappin]

I would hate driving down a road like that constantly worrying if I could get back out... Good work

[@andyhamilton5951]

I had a dry mouth just watching!! Well handled Kev👍

[@TheAmbulatoryAnarchist]

I've just had a day of this around the lanes of South Hams in Devon. I don't know why I came home and watched this... That's some epic driving, fella.

[@UK_Hedgehog51]

I love the new view makes us feel like were actually in the cab with ya.

[@cob1965]

well this is what the 'Keep Calm and Carry on' slogan was all about. Your a star sir.... Had a workshop in Clifford Bridge Devon and watched a poor German coach driver get stuck with a full bus of tourists, next door neighbour had em all out for tea and cake while he reversed the coach back down the lane for a mile.!

[@rickfrogm825]

Wow when you were spinning tires backing up that muddy slope... well done sir to hold that all together on top of the pressure of the whole situation.

[@TrafficDE]

I envy your calm and driving skills, this video was stressful to watch..

[@JdmJmz]

So relaxed and composed hats off to you for this one. I wouldn't of even attempted it. I still have alot of learning to do.

[@nickwakefield5432]

The most impressive thing you did all day was keeping calm well done, once you lose your head shit follows

[@ApocalypseRogue]

I bet your eyes lit up when you reached the main Rd. Epic driving skill Kev! & you didn't quit your job because you had a 'bad day' #kudos 👊🏻👌🏻🚛💯

[@carlhall7258]

It's only tight when you have to fold both mirrors in!

[@brucedibben7604]

Kev, been there. done that and finally ended up in the brain doctor's chair having counselling as convinced that I was a failure. Haulage managers couldn't give monkeys about us shit under the shoe drivers. We know that we are the only people that keeps the country going and your one of the best. Well done that man.

[@PonasPravalas]

Most likely you haven't done that and you didn't end up in ''brain'' doctors chair.

[@WildWilly600]

done bloody well backing that out , most of our brick lorrys can`t back 20 yards !!

[@keltthomas8476]

A beautiful bit of driving and reversing there mr tee very impressive

[@johnp6987]

Absolute joke of a job. I would have been doing my bollocks at the office for sending me down there

[@bdeithrick]

[@equaliser2265]

If it don't look good don't go down it.. Call them to come up in a car and look at the route and truck..

[@equaliser2265]

Go back man I would never have turned down there.

[@bostedtap8399]

Excellent driving and self control. Looking forward to more easier drives 👍. Thanks for sharing.

[@tonylewis472]

Hi Kev and thanks for a great vlog, really enjoyed it as usual.. I completely understand how stressful all those lanes made you mate, such a big responsibility on our shoulders, damaging the truck or another vehicle, but you kept your cool, stay safe bud.

[@andrewdennis5771]

I feel for you mate . None hgv drivers don’t seem to realise the stress and anxiety that comes with the job most days how your constantly having to evaluate every move you do in that truck . Not to mention the customer . When they say ‘The last driver got it in ‘ or ‘ I’ve had loads of trucks huggers then yours in here ‘ all I’m thinking to myself is ahhhh that old chestnut. Respect to you mate form a fellow trucker !

[@christopherwhatcott6235]

Fantastic driving keV you kept it together in a very stressful situation...well done ( I was sweating just watching)👍

[@joannedeal3418]

Really impressed, Kev, with you getting up and back along those really tight lanes, gates, trees, etc. Very well done! The landowners should at least cut their trees back.

[@taragoble4300]

Watched a few of your vlogs over the Christmas holidays and I've really enjoyed them, so keep em coming all the best cheers Tara

[@KevTee]

Thanks for watching Tara, glad you enjoy the content 👌

[@icewizzard666]

Holy crap Kev! Your office needs to listen to advice on not sending huge trucks! That was a seriously tight lane, the little bridge as you put it was the least of your worries lol. Wow those gates looked tight, you pulled off an epic reverse too! Think you deserve a few beers! You may hide it well but that day shouldn't have happened if they hadn't sent the artic there. Stay safe mate!

[@cd82156]

You’ve gone up in my estimation, you’ve also confirmed why I’m on Class 2, which at times is challenging. There’s a few drivers I know couldn’t have done that job.

[@brianligat8901]

Awesome reversing for that distance in an HGV. Well done.

[@williamparry9314]

Fair play mate, you have got a full set to go there. I would have been on the phone before I turned down there. That way the boss knows, any damage don't blame me.

[@mrfordfairmont]

slow and stead threw the trees works... good that the guys helped you get out

[@Fast_car1000]

Well done and for staying calm during that nightmare job 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@silverprado1206]

Awesome display of skilled driving. Hats off to you mate. Well done.

[@MyRunningJourney]

First time I have watched one of your videos. Some superb driving skills there. A bad day at the office handled impeccably! I've subscribed.

[@rossmcgarrie9787]

I remember ur camera at that exact angle for ur Scottish 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 trip to Elgin. Perfect angle pal I love it 👍👍

[@KevTee]

Your correct, I've been working on it a while but I think we're getting there now 👌

[@rossmcgarrie9787]

KevTee yeah it’s my favourite angle as Jenko also has his at a similar angle pal.

[@SuperDannyboy1974]

Kev fair bloody play mate! To truly understand the stress of being in that position and the skill of getting out of it you've got to have driven an artic! You are a true gent Kev many people would have been doing their nut! Can't beat a Kev Tee vlog with a cuppa of tee!! By far my favourite vlogger Kev! 🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻 Dan

[@KevTee]

Thanks Dan 👍

[@arjay6928]

Good job ! Every day, i always expect the worst when i go out on the road, if the worst doesn't happen, then i have had a good day !

[@timoS641]

Kev you are a champion. Great to hear your real thoughts at the end. I hope the tree noises were not as bad as they sounded and the truck is not marked up. I’ve been there mentally many times and felt the stress with you. Great content though isn’t it👌👍🏽

[@KevTee]

Bit of polish and you would never know 😂

[@barrypatterson1221]

Bloody crazy sending a LARGE TRUCK DOWN A NARROW LANE LIKE that.. top marks keV on getting your truck in and out off that lane.. brilliant bit of driving mate...I really enjoy your vlogs

[@georgekerswell4936]

I salute you Kev Tee and agree with all the comments.

[@valentine75]

You definitely earned that coffee at the end of all that lol. Bet you were glad of the volvos light steering

[@chrisstone3280]

Cracking Bit of Driving Kev reminds me of the days when I did tanker work up and down tight lanes you know it's tight when you have to fold in both wing mirrors and then having to back out of places blind I personally never trust any customer nowadays that say " Yeah Driver we always get big trucks up here " and what they actually mean by a big truck is usually the .Com van that drops there shopping of

[@keaper8560]

Even though it's a challenging drive no matter what deep down there you love this kinda jobs. The challenge, the accomplishment.

[@deanbritton8441]

Well done Kev, I really appreciate some of the Crap you truckers have to go through ,just to make a delivery . Well done to you and all the other hard working guys and gals doing a job that a lot of people like me who really do not appreciate just how hard your day to day life is just to make a living .Again Well Done .

[@TurdwinMcGee]

Wow, how you manage to keep calm is quite amazing honestly. I'd have been effing and jeffing and ramming those tree branches at full pelt haha

[@Rroff2]

Many years ago I learnt to drive doing laps of Pen Mill Trading Estate - back then during the day was rarely cars parked on both sides and at night/weekends it was clear!

[@Matthew-ky3dn]

Keep your self safe keV tee and drive carefully home in one piece stop at services for a coffee and a hot meal

[@stephenhunter70]

I think when it come to tight deliveries, your boss thinks Kevin's the man for the job!

[@mickeypopa]

He should do one tight delivery to his wife!

[@drummingriffin]

Well done Kev, and yes, you do seem to handle these situations with a bit of levity. But I get what you say about the camera being there. I think that would work for me too. I have driven professionally years ago but never the big stuff. No SatNav back then and certainly no cameras. Once again mate.....Well done :-)

[@yamyamrob4130]

[@MrMrhughesy]

I was wincing just watching that, as someone who goes down lanes often, but not in a blooming artic though. Jebus.

[@metronetrail]

Many many years a go, before sat navs, i got caught down a single tight bendy country road, where i came to a bridge, which i could not get under. Had to reverse over 2 miles. the 10 odd cars behind me had to do the same, they were not happy, even the cars could not turn.

[@tobi101c]

Cheese that’s tight then! Great that wasn’t me!😅

[@paultripp1377]
