Also how they sometimes differ from one province to another as well as from one state to another.

Two items on my bucket list for truck driving. Drive a log truck up and down from the landing and a road train in Australia. I had started driving trucks a day or two after turning twenry one years old. My first job was driving from Minneapolis MN to the east coast of the US from Boston down to Baltimore and back to Minneapolis all in a weeks time. Did this route for nearly a year. Just retired a year ago from nearly 40 years as a concrete mixer driver here in the twin cities.

When the empty trailer is dropped back onto the ground and hooked up to the truck the driven only needs to give the load support upright bars a push and they seem to flip upright on their own . What makes them spring up like that and what are the upright bars called if you can remember . Thank you !!!
@CamGuerilla9 ай бұрын
No worries. They put the trailer on the back so that it is easier to maneuver up the logging roads and at the landing where they load. . It also saves fuel and tires. Yes, it was kootenay lake. There are springs in the hinges of the uprights. I can't remember what the uprights are called.

@CamGuerilla Жыл бұрын
It's pretty common to drive on roads where there is active hauling. The truckers let each other know when they see cars on the road. The main thing is to stay to the right, especially when you don't have a clear line of sight ahead. Keep a safe speed that allows you to react when you encounter a truck. Some people choose to follow a logging truck when on a FSR, but that comes with tons of dust.

In BC the number one death rate per hundred hours (might have been per thousand?) were fallers number two were log truck drivers. I definitely preferred logging over highway driving. Pretty much everyone up there knows the rules and follows them. less government types around. Where I hauled out of Hazelton mainly it was rare I had to go over a government scale. Very little traffic on the roadways. My take home pay at the time was more than the highways guys grossed.

From this area, about 1.5 to 2 depending on which mill they're hauling to.

I enjoyed the video, but why is the engine of the truck that noisy, any fault? European log trucks are much less noisier, especially in the drivers cabin.
@CamGuerilla Жыл бұрын
The normal noise level is what you hear when I'm narrating in the cab. In some of the clips where I'm not narrating, you can hear the noise of the engine compression brake.

That’s an interesting 3 axle trailer. It’s like a mule train but with one bunk. There’s a ton of 3 axle long loggers here in Washington but I have seen none like that. It looks like it wouldn’t steer to great..idk? Cool vid though..
@CamGuerilla Жыл бұрын
go to the spot in the video where it's going around the sharp corner and you will see how the trailer articulates in the middle under the center of the load. that's how they get around sharp corners.
