@willb301820 күн бұрын
I think he said 14' required the escort and this was 13' 11" . I guess you've got to "draw the line" somewhere. But that is an awfully wide load for an intracity route. I am sure they don't want this any more complicated than necessary, but to have a different criteria for intracity vs interstate routes makes sense to a guy like me who knows nothing about this stuff. Probably not practical since most routes consist of both. But this is an interesting learning experience for the "layman".

My husband drove truck 35 yrs and riding was fun…but today there are too many entitled drivers or so they think you would want to smack just once…I hear the calmness in your voice…. You are an excellent driver…..you don’t haul where we live but you go right through my old stomping grounds I would buy you a coffee..stay safe out there and make sure you only drive as fast as your guardian angel flies.

Before my retirement I did twenty five years heavy haul, five years ice road at Yellowknife NWT and ten years flat deck. Hauling 14ft wide without escort always gave me sweaty palms. Forced retirement due to cancer, you are doing a good job, teach the youngsters well.

Even aggressive and crazy drivers were born with human survival instincts. Therefore, nobody was harmed in the filming of this video, even if it looks like some were tempting fate. On the other hand, with texting and driving being the norm, a few drivers in NJ were lucky they were looking out the windshield at what could have been the moment of their last text if there had been bad timing of when they were distracted. My current vehicle is 15ft 3in long, 5ft9in wide, and 4ft 10in high. There are times when I appreciate it being great in situations where my mother (born 1916) used to say "long skinny car needed". I used to have a 26ft box truck which was 35x8ft overall, and I remember more than one white-knuckle drive through the Chesapeake Bay bridge-tunnel with it, where being drowsy or inaccurate was not an option. That nobody in the oncoming adjacent lane was off by more than a few inches either, was an impressive display of people's ability to pay attention when the alternative is certain death.

As an ex UK trucker and now doing the same thing in Australia, that was an interesting trip to follow along with. Being as you were left alone to load, l thought you did a bloody good job. I disagree with some of the comments about getting close to the car, l thought it was up to him/her to access the situation coming up in front of them and not try and slip through a gap that wasn’t there.

I wish I knew but I assume you're talking about the interstate entrance. I do stuff fairly similar in dims to Doug. He did a good job but that is not what I'd call shooting a gap that wasn't there. That was a 4 having his lane disappear 30' in front of him when I bet from his perspective it appeared to be plenty of room in the disappearing lane 4. Doug was put in a crappy situation with no escort (immediately acknowledged it) by not so bright penny pinchers. The general public is not getting paid to do the oversize load so I Never Expect them to know what I'm doing. Obviously I appreciate when they do but it isn't their job and they shouldn't be immediately bashed for not giving way.

Another good one, Doug! The details on loading and how you chained it down were great. To say that highways in that part of New Jersey are a maze is quite an understatement. We lived a bit west of Newark for over 20 years and drove those roads, especially to Newark Airport, many times. We became convinced they had a rule in the highway department that you couldn't build a new ramp to connect two routes if you could find up to five existing ones to link together to provide the connection.

Did you figure that out that loading technique on your own or did you learn from other operators?

Keen Transport in Decatur IL regularly pushes trailers under loads. I believe that is where I first seen it done. I just adapt the technique for my situation!

How does the auto hold up to them heavy loads ?

It does the job surprisingly well. I still prefer a manual but it’s mostly a personal choice.

Having an escort vehicle when 14' wide would certainly be easier on the nerves when traveling on the busy roads. My guess customers don't want to pay for extras that aren't legally required.
