As a long-retired Police Officer who formerly held a Police Grade 1 Driving Certificate, I have to say that this is, IMHO, your best video yet! The teacher in you really came to the fore, and you explained everything clearly, calmly and succinctly. I sincerely believe that your future lies in teaching HGV drivers and driving. Beautifully done!

I’d just like to point out that the salary for a permanently employed HGV Class 1 driving instructor appears to be around the £30k/year mark. In terms of take-home cash I reckon that’s little more than £1600 a month, assuming an employee is putting at least £100 a month into a pension. Less than £20k a year isn’t much to live on these days. If Hayley’s future lies in teaching, I hope she has the courage to set up her own training school. That path could lead to a reasonable income after a few years of building the business. I hate the fact that talented and good hearted people are so under valued in this industry. They literally have the public’s lives in their hands. A bad day on the job could lead to a student capable of terrible destruction behind the wheel of a 44 tonner. On that note, it’s my big test today! Many thanks again to Hayley for giving me a valuable training resource. I watched it again last night and I’m just about to hit play again. 👍🧠🤞

Hi Hayley, I just wanted to say thanks to you for this video. I passed my C+E test (which I went straight for without doing Class 2 first) in an artic last week and believe that this video helped me a lot. 🙏 I first attempted it 2 months ago in a Wag & Drag and didn't find that at all intuitive, despite the training organisation telling me it would be easier for someone with no LGV experience. But the worst thing is that I couldn't find any vids on here at all about how to corner a Wag & Drag successfully. But, even when I was training on the Wag & Drag (and searching for instructional videos about it), I watched this video and you just made it all seem much more intuitive. So, after failing first time, I took a break from the learning/practicing & got a job driving a 7.5 tonner for a couple of months on my grandfather rights, finally taking the C+E test again last week having changed to an Artic and found it much easier in almost every respect after watching this just twice. You can walk tall through life, knowing that you've made a difference to other people's lives. Bless you! 🙌

Very informative video Hayley, thanks for taking the time to post it. Had my 2nd artic lesson in and around a busy Irish town on a miserable Monday evening in December. It was interesting to say the least as some of the junctions would be tight in a large van! And while my instructor was great it was a lot to take in while trying not to flatten a string of cars in the fading light and worsening weather. It was great to sit back and let a professional such as yourself take me around a similarly tight route. You have really made it look easy!

Great video, as always Hayley. As a new pass, I found the advice about "turning when the kerb disappears" especially helpful. One thing my instructor brought to my attention was that, in an artic, you're sitting either directly on, or even slightly ahead, of front wheels. Once this clicked in my head, it made a huge difference. Coming straight from a car, this definitely took some getting used to!

I took my test today and passed with 2 minors. I failed the 1st attempt 2 weeks ago. My single major fault was the cornering- not taking the roundabout wide enough and cut someone up. With all the lessons I had I never really understood the positioning for dealing with roundabouts. Then I watched this video...Boom, There It Is!!! It made so much sense I was astounded that I had not been taught like that. It really is simples! Well, I'm starting my career on Monday, July 11th with a large trucking company in Spalding. No looking back now. Thank you Hayley. You really should do this as a career. I think it's the teacher in you. I should know because I was a classroom teacher for years, then 18 years as a car driving instructor in Peterborough. I retired in 2020, thanks to Covid. Now I'm a professional trucker (can I say that?) Any way, thanks a real bunch, Hayley. Will horn when I go pass you :-)

The main problem I have as do others doing the same course is your anticipation from distance... In a car if you see other parked cars you can creep up behind whiz round and your done... Not in an arctic.. you need to see it slow, indicate right, potentially stop etc

Hi Hayley - Thanks for your videos - so helpful. I've just started my practical training and so far have had one day in a rigid lorry. Tomorrow I get into an artic for the first time so the roads of Hampshire are dangerous from around 12 til 4 pm. Your videos are reassuring me that it can be done and I can pass my test next Tues. I found it reassuring to hear you say that turning an artic is easier than turning a rigid. Also, thinking in squares and straight lines when you turn rather than in curves is really helpful advice. I feel I'm going into tomorrow's training with a head start already which can only give me confidence. Thanks Hayley. Keep the videos coming. Sue xx

If only I'd had someone of your standard teaching me it probably wouldn't have taken me five attempts to pass. That was in 1989 and I was never confident enough to pursue a career driving class 1. I gave up driving class 1 pretty much as soon as I got my licence and tbh I think it was for the best as I think I would have been a danger to other road users. Class 1 drivers have my utmost respect as they make what is an incredibly difficult and potentially stressful job look effortless and we'd all be screwed without them.

I'll take that as a compliment 👍🏻. The best chefs are mostly men these days. I thought the kitchen was a woman's place? 🤔

The term you were searching for is "hatchings" or "hatched area": /////////// Chevrons are V shaped: >>>>>>>> The phrase I was taught when I was learning was "Your mirrors tell you when to turn".

My favourite KZbinr. I love the way you explain things. Your students must have been very lucky to have you. Thank you so much for all your efforts and help. Please wish me good luck on tomorrow's re-test. I failed first time due to blocking lanes on two occasions while approaching roundabouts. According to the examiner, this wasn't necessary. As a result I spent all day trying to drive around in my car like I would drive an artic - not the best idea as at the beginning I was causing quite a lot of confusion, so I had to start relying on my imagination. But it helped me to get more confidence in my own judgement and more local knowledge. During test there was also an issue of misjudged distance which caused oncoming traffic to slow down while I was going around parked vehicle. Stress ate my concentration. Hopefully tomorrow will be successful and I will be able to start enjoying my childhood dream. Thank you once again. All the best.

Thanks very much for your kind words. I hope your re-test went well? There's a lot to remember but once you get used to it it's easier. I would have never been brave enough to go from car to artic so if that's what you're doing you have my admiration!

@@TruckDriverHayley thank you. It went well and in less than two weeks time I'll start my first job as a Class 1 Driver. So happy and worried in the same time. It's completely different reality to drive 44t artic in comparison with a car but, as my neighbour says - challenges make us going forward.

Hi Hayley Great video - the object starting to disappear is a great tip along with watching your trailer wheels. The tight left turn at the traffic lights when you had to stop was really good as it showed you need to do this sometimes. Watching your headboard was a good reminder & taking things slowly invaluable. I am finding that as I drive about I observe the lines other drivers take to help me with the lines I take. Thank you.

Hailey, I am in the same boat as others in your comments. Failed my first attempt at the driving test for class 1just about 2 weeks ago. Having found your video, I will watch it plenty of times. I wish trainers or teachers all had to learn how to teach before they attempt to teach. You are a star and I am convinced that your simple and clear instructions will get me through. I will come and tell you when I do. I haven't got a date yet, but hopefully soon. Thank you. I think the overthinking has a lot to do with it. My main fail was a van decided to squeeze on my right on a left turn and I had to swerve left to avoid coalition and that is when I mounted the kerb and damaged one of those black plastic cones. SIlly me. I most not panic.

this particular when to turn style video is very useful to people the week they do their hgv course. as you only get 4 hours a day and watching a few hours of cornering in tight situations is like an extension of the lesson. more of these in different places. great camera angles too

This is one reason why I quite like 2-to-1 training (2 pupils, 1 instructor). It seems like worse value than 1-to-1, but you get more hours per day in the truck, half of it spent watching what the other pupil is doing. You can analyse what they are doing and think about what you would do in the same circumstances without the hassle of actually having to drive at the same time.
