POV Trucking Some Auckland Backroads 🚛🐄

Hows it team, bit of a slow one this time around, Wasn’t the best week for it but nonetheless here’s a cream load out of Tahekeroa, situated somewhere in between Kaukapakapa and Waiwera which seems to be growing in traffic numbers lately and as you can see it isn’t ideal really 🤣👌 done a test video loading with a chest mount and it turned out pretty good so will start doing that abit more 🤙

[@nevillebroadbent1601]

Enjoy your stuff. Did years carting fuel in triples in Aus. This brings back memories of truckin into places a triple shouldn't be . No harder or easier than what you are doing though. Plenty of those moments where you don't breath . Keep up the good work young fella.

@@Truckersteve14 My first “big” job, 50 years ago at the age 19 was taking a A train, a 33’ semi with a little 18’ dog trailer on the back, from Gisborne to Auckland, and trying to back into the loading bay with everyone outside on smoko. After stuffing it up numerous times and spending ages finally getting it in the forklift driver said we normally push those trailers in with the forklift but we enjoyed the show!

Auckland drivers break my brain. I like to drive fast and have spent ages building up my car etc. I'm always trying to be courteous, keep with the traffic flow, let people merge etc and give it a good thrash at times I choose to be ok. Meanwhile every Aucklander will do 70 in a 50 without looking or indicating then sit at 95 in the fast lane oblivious to a growing tail behind them. People need to just chill and work together in the road. Driving isn't always fun but we can at least all go home with no hassles. Oh, Auckland tailgating freaks me out like bro, you're inside of your reaction time so you WILL hit something before you even realise sh!t has gone wrone, phones mounted blocking prime windscreen real estate too. Jeez I'm sounding old lol

I work on the policy of “Fuck em”, I’m not going out on the soft shoulder and rolling the truck for anyone. However that being said, I will put my truck off the road and slow up for any B Double stock truck that’s coming toward me here in Aussie. I would far rather do that and keep him upright than have to pick up ole mate and his load spread across the road.

We don’t run HPMV weights like most use it for on state highways, some upto 58t, You’d be a complete moron to do that on these roads anyway even if it was legal, we have the same weight limit as anything else on these roads no matter the unit, if anything its easier on the road with big setups, same weight spread over more axles
