Ha hahahahahahhahaahha I remember those day but the problem is you’ve just made the delivery with no incident so the people in the office will just send another unit/trailer next time. You done good

Love these reversing videos. Might not be fun for poor old Raul but they're great to watch.

Held my class 1 for 18 months and got 12 months experience because after 6 months driving I quit due to the 1st two companies I worked for being arseholes and always pushing me to do more., the stress I could hear in your voice reminded me so much of why I quit. Been driving again now for 6 months and much happier just doing agency work like you Raul, so much better cause you can dump them if they are dicks and go work elsewhere.

Apart from being stressful, that amount of maneuvering looked utterly exhausting. Well Done (as usual) Raul 👌🌟

"In this shit hole" .... 🤣🤣 ... That was funny, cracked me up. 😂

Always impressed with your talent Raul, thanks for your content!

In a perfect world the planner should be checking the customers out before you even get there. To save time for you and the company and also potential damage to the truck.

Welcome to the world of delivering/collecting from small to medium sized businesses😂 I do this almost everyday 😂

Been doing easy trunking for almost 12 months, car to c+e. Turned up for work yesterday & got told had to do store deliveries, no advice on locations no risk assessment to look at guys normally go out for a week to learn the route. Your first delivery was literally me yesterday struggling like hell trying to get in a tiny Iceland yard. It took me 45 mins & once I’d managed it the tail lift decided to pack up 😂

Instead of struggling to get the artic into places it really shouldn't be. Just pull up outside, and look at it, and say NOPE. Call the office and say you cant get in. They should be sending vans only to that place. Sure, we can do these crazy collections sometimes, but not always and I can't be doing with the stress of it.

Crazy! They should forklift the three pallets out to you at the bottom of the road.

Crazy yard for a 40ft, as you say - cheap easy job for a little Sprinter van

I couldn’t deliver to those sort of places. Straight in, turn around and straight out… that’s my skill level. You’re brilliant at your backing up, well done 👍

Heard that so many times ' Bigger things than you get down there, Driver '. Used to hear it even when I was doing abnormal loads. I even delivered a section of the Berlin Wall to Lord Palumbo and his groundsmen were in front of the truck with chainsaws. They were going ; 'tell us what trees you need taken down Driver' I bet the next bloke that turned up they were saying ' bigger things than you get down there, Driver'. The other one is turning up on a building site with a Hiab, every labourer on site instantly becomes a crane expert and starts telling you what you should be able to do with it and telling you all the other drivers put the bricks and blocks up on the scaffold or lift stuff over parked cars or some other bollocks. The funniest thing is watching them all doing their dance moves when they are pretending they are Banksmen but don't know the real hand signals.

You are a master at backing! :-)

Love watching your driving skills…..👍

Hahaha. Good old Langdons. Been working for them for about 9 years. ❤😂

I havnt even watched the video yet and know exactly what its about 😂😂 the classic " we have trucks here all the time" 😂

Ridiculous yard, but a competent experienced driver makes it look viable. A new driver would really struggle with that manoeuvre. Nice work.

I take my hat off to you sir !

Love the camera angles... it's at exactly 9.53 that I would look in the mirror or out the window see the trailer and 🤯😰 can't think whether I'm going left or right cos my brain kicks into class 2 mode 🤪 so it's great to see your steering wheel action while I reverse my phone in my lap 😂😂😂👍

Raul my big Romanian friend... i felt your pain in this video .. brilliant content as usual

Thankyou. Your skill is an example to us all.

I've always wanted to drive trucks but its things like this that put me off it I'd stress out 😂

Top driver Raul 👌

Raul, have just found your channel. Huge respect for your skills and patience. Stressful sometimes so keep an eye on your blood pressure, no joke sir.

Amazing driving mate.

Well done buddy, makes my work look easy. Doing multi drops in Glasgow

Big up Chorley!!! 🎉

Nice driving my friend

Win a signed photo of raul if you can answer this question "how many pallets had to be delivered?" ! a million signed photos to give away.. 😂

That job looks a nightmare..much respect to you for your patience and perseverance..

Hi Raul, you are a master craftsman when it comes to threading the needle (as this video demonstrates). You just get on with it. Well done!

I worked in amazon sortation, and one freaking lorrry came with one parcel with one freaking pallet.😂😂😂 my colleague and I couldn't understand why they doing thiss. If you have 3 pallets 😂😂😂 i would park somewhere far to avoid difficult / wasted time and walk to warehouse and grap two pallet for my each hand walk back toward to that lorry and come back for last pallet then job done 😂😂😂

Great driving mate

I just discovered your channel, today. I've watched 6 videos so far and I'm impressed. I like the way you go about it, no nonsense, no clickbait, just to the point and showing what's important. None of this "Stranded on the M25 for 948 hours with no water and a broken down truck, my family will all DIE!" rubbish, when in reality they were just a bit low on fuel and got sort of stuck in a traffic jam for 18 seconds. Good stuff! Subbed!

Hi from France, i did heaps of England back in the 90's for Norbert Dentressangle........yeah it was the same back then.........

Absolutely brilliant vlog as always Raul 👌 Many thanks!! Wow, what an absolute joke!!! As always though, you executed it perfectly!!! Best wishes to you & your family 🙏

Imagine what it was like in the 70s, worse yards than that, no power steering, definitely no health and safety, loved the job every drop an adventure 😂

I’ve actually stuck that sticker above the fridge controls 😂😊

Raul is so gorgeous. I love his voice and his super sexy accent. I melt looking at his vids on here

Well done .takes a certain person to do your job . I take my hat of to you . Top driver 👍🏻👍🏻👌

Absolute joke . You know the planners are clueless also ! This industry is so underpaid for the stress and skills required by the drivers . I’ve seen class 1 advertised at £12 an hour in Shrewsbury . Ridiculous

Wow! your a Hero to do this, I would have mushed all them cars.

Wow Raul you couldn't wait to finish that one lol made a good video though!!

Could have done with the baby urban trailer for that first drop. Or as you said a van 😂😂

Just found this channel . Can't stop watchin.brilliant.

great driving skills Raul one of your drops at Daziels i used to go there when i was doing transport refrigeration nice little vlog mate .

They are testing your skills 😂😂😂😂😂

I said the same before you did !!! lol " Designed by idiots" lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Bro... I'm sorry you had to go through this, I respect truck drivers like you a lot. Hard workers, but disrespected all the time by many. Best wishes

Logistics officers that can't drive is the problem. Mmate drove for 20 years as a independent contractor for a bakery, so all paper work, sales, routes where his job as well as delivery. In his current job he is sole driver, but when the logistics officer say he is just a driver when he questions why he is being sent to addresses he knows aren't suitable for his lorry he loves telling them he can do their job but they can't do his.

What I hate more than anything in places like this is they buy boulders and everything just to annoy you even more. It is like they want you to damage the unit! Also Actros is always the same with indicators. Rubbish Mercedes. I think they must stretch the cables more than other trucks.

You made that manoeuvre look so easy

i was thinking to get HGV license to work as truck driver, but jeeez!, not in UK! too narrow streets! to much stress! to low wages! Anyway! good luck with your work Raul! keep up the good job!

Just love the POV videos. Very fun to watch and got me inspired trying it out in an okayish game simulator haha. I bought another drive wheel to try it on ETS2 again. And now doing the actual reversing back parking each delivery through Truckers MP multiplayer mode. First time round it was a nightmare and that is me doing a U-Turn in a big yard so I can set the truck straight for an easy reverse into the dock. I can only imagine how hard it is for small business deliveries with tiny roads and yards in real life. PROPER NIGHTMARE!

Ive been a long time Subscriber, I also currently Work for Langdons. They Enjoy sending you with an Artic Where only rigids should go. Well done for getting it into there !!

Raul, you have managed the backing up nicely and it just proofed your awesome skills. Well done 👏. Can't imagine the US truckers doing these tiny places 🙂. I used to do for many years supermarkets Ahold/ Albert deliveries in the Czech Republic and I actually loved it..

"its what they all say" made me laugh because of how true it actually is lol every time you question it "we have trucks here all the time"

You are a brilliant driver, love your sense of humour, but look after your stress levels. Best wishes

Hi my friend I really enjoy your vedio they always send you challenge delivery’s 😂

I would of taken pics and cancled the job. F that, they need to get that on a 7.5 or 18tonne max. Happy i got into tankers, although some petrol forecourts are tight, you dont have to deal with this type of BS

I got my first class one job the very recently and I hope that soon I can reverse as good as you top notch bit of driving your standard of reversing is what I'm going to strive to replicate😊

Good driving. Similar level to what is required for the HGV test, so no problem in todays trucks with auto gearboxes, great steering bags of power etc. Have to be able to drive under all conditions, and not drive yourself into trouble or let the red mist get the better of you. Thats the job, and not everyone that passes the test can do it long term. Stay calm, dont be afraid to get out and look, no problem to a confident driver

The people that plan the routes should try and drive them see they like it

I just quit after 13 years of that shit dont miss it at all. 😂😂 at least you didnt have 25.25 meters Truck +dolly+eu trailer like we did in Sweden . Keep up doing the Good videos 👌🏻

You were perfectly right to be annoyed, but your driving is fantastic.

Iv done this place for culina , crazy reverse , sometimes theres a car on corner too

Greed is the answer to the question asked, some planner probably saved the company £6.50 on diesel so instead of a rigid or van, you get the job.

That looked like absolute hell

I used to have to deliver in windermere and even though it was possibe for me to deliver later when store was shut they would insist in deliveries during the day. The loading bays were always full of cars. I gave up arguing with car drivers and i just blocked them in and left the vehicle in middle of the street.

I used to truck drive but I stop as to stressful and frustration also I'm to old now sixty years living on medication, think truck driving sends me crazy 🥵

The driver showed his skill at manoeuvring his lorry into tight spaces 👍 Its a nice rig aswell. As for the swearing..😂

Risk assessment at best!!! Hahahaha

fine peice of driving raul im impressed but i suppose thats the job though been able to turn a full artic on a tupence

I drove for that company for 13 years and lost count of how many times I raised issues like this and the planners didn’t give a stuff because they couldn’t even drive a truck

Ah yes , that old chestnut! 😂

Should have risk assessment on sites like this .Drivers should refuse and bring the load back.

It keeps blinking fast because you probably pulled the cable a tiny little bit. It happens when you reverse in sharp places.

Reminds me when I did steel deliveries on an artic to tiny, tucked away steel fabricator yards.., very stressful (especially if they can’t be arsed to help!) 😡👎

when hgv driving is portrayed as a fun lifestyle choice, they don't tell about the trials and tribulations of the hgv driver, just accessing various sites , I've had over fifty years of experience.

I worked with STEF in Spain before. Same issues, they send class 1s to do the job of a class 2 truck.

If the people who designed them, also had to drive the lorry, it’d be different! Well done mate.

That was excellent ive been thinking of leaving my company but watching this puts me off some of them industrial estate look ridiculous to take an artic and them yards which are not yards are far to tight I dont think I need the stress of all that Respect for keeping your cool👌

I have just started to watch your videos. Great stuff, not too long, not too short for me, I like them. The places where you have to go are definitely not for trucks I am sure, but you could do that so big congrat. Some driver can not do reverse at all, but these tight places are only for the bests. You do it so easily, find the right angles for the first time. For how long do you drive?

You earned your money on that one bro.

I can do that. Hold my beer and my joint.

Yep, been there and many other places where a 7.5 tonne or van should be used. I went to a farm to deliver, it was a bitch to get there. Must have been rigid trucks doing milk and animal feed. I was driving an artic, I said to the farmer it was a challenge getting here. He said "Oh we get bigger trucks than yours down here" 😮 I asked "Did they have a police escort, because anything bigger than my 44 tonne twin axle cab triple axle trailer would have needed the cops". 😂

Had that before with lights that work on test, but not on the move... Suzie cable connection issue every time! When the cables are taught, they lose connection!

It’s a joke mate, it’s the same on containers. The places they send you are so inadequate for arctics, I’ve said the business shouldn’t be able to receive orders if they’ve not got the right space and and easy access for us! Keep up the good work bud 🚛

We had a bigger lorry in here last week lol

The clutch cost more than the whole transport 😂😂😂

We have out of the way places in the U.S. like that. Iv'e delivered loads to places that a small box van should have delivered to.

Lucky you didnt have a unit with camera mirrors being forced into the branches with them you could've left them behind😂😂

urban trailer easy, but with your triAxle, good reverse 👍

😂😂😂😂😂 love watching your videos man, but when you said why send a HGV to this S**thole place 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Used to have the same with M.A.N.'s, LED Equiped Trailors would Activate a Fault, we think that as LED's draw such little Current as Opposed to normal Bulbs the ECU thought that they were not Working, but they were, the DAF's that we had were fine though.

I drive a london bus and thought of giving HGV a go… your videos put me off for life i thought driving a bus was stressful

I know it doesn’t suit every driver but when I see vids like this I genuinely can’t understand why drivers put up with this type of work instead of supermarket work for £20 an hour. Hats off to this guy for his patience

That’s every day driving in London been doing it 30 years love a challenge If you work for a agency you have to take what they got Your lucky some companies want a printout off the temperature before they load And they won’t load until there desired temperature
