I’m glad he’s not hooking up triples. After getting in and out of the truck that many times Iwould be done for the day.

Always loved Estes and Consolidated Freightways classic Red wheels and Dollies!!

By the time this guy finishes hooking up, I'll be 1hour down the road.

15:30 Now that you've completed each of these steps, inform your supervisor that you cannot depart because it's time for your federally mandated 30-minute break... _with the _*_key_*_ in your _*_pocket,_*_ of course._

This was really a well thought detailing proper procedures. If drivers have a problem with it I would like to see them do a better job.

Video had to be circa 1973 that equipment was brand new, cause once its put into service it's never washed unless it rains on it !!! I think it's the dirtiest fleet on the road besides YRC for the most part

Great content, it assisted with the passing of my CDL permit

The last five years I drove before retiring I ran line haul for Fed Ex. Way to much information, and if you don't notice you lost the back trailer after you get to the terminal, for get all this and find another job !!!

cheat sheet guide: to hook up doubles place keys in front pocket

Nice equipment, good looking uniforms, by the way when was this video produced 1978 ? I haven't seen any Estes equipment ever being so clean? I think there's some professional video touch up's here? And the actor here should have won a Grammy for the ( I've lost my trailer somewhere!) Look on his face, OUTSTANDING 👏👏👍

Not ONE of those accident scenes was a 28 foot trailer! lol

Richmond, VA!!!!

Should I take the key with me? Should I get out of the tractor 25 times or 37 times? Bu the time this set gets hooked up it will be time to punch out.

Most comprehensive demo I've seen. Quick question: what is a Petcock?

This is not the real world, I'd be fired if I took as long as this guy!

excellent information very clear thanks

WHOA WHOA WHOA what happened to the part on getting the dolly and taking it to the pup?? I'm ready for a nap after this video which must have been made back when they had an hour and a half for a pre-trip and on-duty time of 18hrs which is what's required for all this in/out of the truck stuff???

good video but his back trailer was way to high you want your fifth wheel to lift the trailer up a little when hooking so you don't have a high hook lol

So you are tell us that this driver never looked in his mirrors or felt the difference of not have that second trailer behind him

Two many times getting in and out of truck, and I’ll leave the key in the ignition.

Junk tractor ! I'm glad I got into this industry a few years ago

Am intetested in "senior citizen trucking", i.e. 400 miles or 8 hours/day max. Does your company have a program for this?

Great video, thank you so much

How in the world did that dolly end up at his tail trailer. You should place dolly 1st before hooking your lead. But this was probably a 2 truck video, they just didn't show the other guy staging the dolly

Why dose this video feel like it's from 1999.?

well done

Exelente

who uses air taps? so out of date

What a mess about. In and out too many times and what a way to wear out the trucks starter. And I would never move a dolly by hand it’s too heavy and dangerous

Should I take the key with me. I'm not clear on that. Because some employee, whom you hired mind you, might sneak into the tractor and run me over Omg! So fucking done with this.

He didn’t even cross the safety chains

Hook up tripls

The unthinkable has happened.... Then you realize, damn, I'm non-union, they will fire your non-union ass, because they can. S***, you should have signed that union card when you had the chance. You didn't believe you needed union representation, until you needed it . Good luck finding a new job.

It's not brain surgery. lol

I will never hire this guy. He will never make cut time.
