Longer videos take a hell of time to make of you want to maintain the quality. Unfortunately the KZbin algorithm favours quantity. So if you don't roll out videos very frequently, the algorithm will not push you to more audience. That is why most growing channels stick to shorter format videos (around the 10 minutes mark). And that is what the higher percentage of viewers want. I too would have loved longer format videos, but unfortunately daddy KZbin doesn't encourage them.

0:47 Italy was in the opposite situation until 1978, when they repealed the law which mandated all trucks to be RHD. There was the impression that putting the drivers on the nearside would help them stay closer to the shoulder of the road. The overtake visibility wasn't a problem, as trucks were too slow anyway. Garbage trucks and sweepers are still RHD but I imagine it's the same in most countries.

I haven’t been to Jamaica but I’ve been to other mountainous parts of the Caribbean and driving itself is just so crazy there the way the roads can be in the mountains, I can’t imagine driving a truck through that terrain

I was there a month ago and was a little nervous when our bus would blow the horn going around narrow corners in case something is coming the other way!

I love that most drivers mess with their exhausts and make their Jake brake excessivly loud. Sounds awesome

truck driver was my childhood dream until i change tire on soil, in a rainy season, with 25 or 35 metric ton cargo on top, with a couple of hand tool, pipe, planks, and couple of under rated jack. to top it all off, we have to put inner tube inside of tubeless tire only with leaf spring crowbar to pry it. im still surprise it didn't topple and squish me to death

this video made me realize that once American Truck Simulator gets to Florida, the Caribbean opens up for trucking.

So cool that there is a channel covering this niche product, check out Suriname and Caribbean trucking in general, wild stuff with little regulation
