In a heart-pounding feat of bravery, I embarked on a daring journey, steering a massive HGV truck along the treacherous lanes of England's deadliest road. With each twist and turn, adrenaline surged through my veins as I navigated the harrowing terrain, facing the formidable challenge head-on. Amidst the looming cliffs and unforgiving bends, every moment was a test of skill and nerve, pushing the limits of what I thought possible. Yet, against all odds, I pressed forward, determined to conquer the ultimate driving challenge and emerge victorious on the other side.
In a spine-tingling adventure that defied the odds, I embarked on an adrenaline-fueled journey behind the wheel of a heavy-duty HGV truck, daring to traverse the perilous expanse of England's deadliest road. As I gripped the steering wheel with white-knuckled determination, the narrow lanes and vertiginous drops tested my mettle at every turn. With each twist of the road, my senses heightened, adrenaline coursing through my veins as I confronted the daunting obstacles ahead. Against the backdrop of towering cliffs and unforgiving terrain, I pushed myself to the limit, navigating the treacherous path with unwavering resolve. In the face of danger, I embraced the challenge, emerging triumphant as I conquered the road less traveled, etching my name in the annals of daring adventure.

I dont know where are originally from, just that you are now a UK HGV Driver. I just wanted to say that its been a long time since I have seen anyone so happy at their work. Its nice to see such positivity! Thanks for sharing your day!

He is British, but was born in the Dominican Republic. When he was 17, he expressed a desire to join the army, so I sent him to live with his grandfather. He successfully joined the army and served for 7 years. I am very proud of my boy.

[@NUBBY39]

He is not British if he was born in another country ,its like saying if a dog is born a stable it makes him a horse​@gregroddis7861

[@gregroddis7861]

It's worth noting that my sister and I were born in different countries due to our father's military service. I am proud to say that I am second generation Army, and my son is the third. We are Brits, and it's time to wake up to that fact. Like it or not. Blood line mate, blood line makes you not where you are born. As you said if you are born in a stable does not make you a horse

This is proper UK lorry driving

Damn ! This is completely nightmare ! And to make matters worse, that sign saying "1245 casualties in 5 Years"🥶🥶🥶🥶

I like the sound that he makes when he passes vehicles on the other side of the road I like this guy good to see this from a drivers point of view

to be honest I do not want the guy to lost his Job

[@silvervandriver9940]

This driver has to keep in mind that in other vehicles there is a family man taking away his livelihood.

[@Liamh-hz9el]

Shouldn’t worry about him losing his job if he wants to drive like that, we’re all meant to be professional on the roads.

Wow you’re a saddo

[@gregroddis7861]

Great video, son! The countryside views are amazing. Could you show us how the container moves from the front to the rear on the trailer platform? I haven't seen this before. Great Job son.

[@truckinguk]

I will make a video about it post 🚛💨

[@chrisjenkins1]

Still baffles me how loads of truck drivers feel comfortable on narrow roads coming round corner so fast. Especially when youve come across many other trucks coming other way.

[@truckinguk]

To be honest mate it’s easier than it looks

[@charliesorelli1410]

Confidence c'mon....light work mate. Try Scotland,Wales or York if u wanna see tight virgin roads 😅😅

[@Fast_car1000]

🤣🤣 idiot so called professional drivers I'm a class 1 driver and I wouldn't drive at those speeds putting lives at risk. Most truck drivers would smash someone wing mirror off and carry on then your stuck waiting hours for recovery, load doesn't get delivered, potentially losing contracts. Slow down and get there in one piece for the sake of 5 minutes it ain't worth the risk. Doesn't make you a professional just a 🤬

[@tok1964]

I do this on Scottish roads 5 days a week up to the highlands….. easy

Another great video 👍🏻 can’t believe that idiot over took you on that narrow road. It’s shocking! People like him cause accidents. Keep up the great content 👍🏻👍🏻

[@comradebismarck]

I love how he makes it look so dramatic, but at the same time quite easy. I've being on that road with 26 tons of water I know its a right mindfuck but if you take it slowly and cautiously its all alright. It reminds me a little bit of A68 that's a fun road to drive on.

Drove a artic tanker b4 not fun I’ll stick to my walking floor😂😂😂

Drive the south lakes area and around Millom all the time and it is tight, that’s only in a class 2, can’t imagine what a class 1 is like. Keep trucking

[@andrewbates2816]

Why

[@Daton.B]

Are you not aloud to keep your trailer closed like that when your empty to make it easier to turn corners and what not I don’t see why you would need to slide the trailer back open or even when your loaded it’s a 20ft can. How heavy could it be on your truck and trailer that you would need to spread then weight out

[@alexrobinson2281]

It’s spelt allowed not aloud , maybe you should have attended school a bit more often

[@MrTwister86660]

You lose too much traction driving with the trailer closed
