Like the blind leading the blind ๐ฎ
Easy to get on that ramp! Banksman is useless
To be fair the driver went in "blind side" and although the beginning was a mess he actually put it in at the end pretty well lol
Suddenly we have hundreds of HGV drivers on here… my wife and daughter do this and they say looks like he didn't line up properly as that is an easy one ๐๐
Tbh heโs blind reversing poor man
Hand your licence back, even a dam monkey could've done that better ffs
Iโm a class one driver and heโs made a whole mess of the reversing, thereโs a load of space. He would have been better driving towards the gate then swing out so itโs not a blind side reverse for him as heโs left hand drive, or even reverse in the yard then pull forward to reverse straight back onto the ramp. All the people stood around when the drivers obviously stressing out
Irritates me when people are saying โjust needs to do thisโ, โjust do thatโ. Itโs not โjustโ doing anything itโs hard to reverse those things and stressful when you have 3-4 people giving their opinion on what they think is best. The banksman often make the drivers job harder or worse as most of them have never driven a truck in their life and think they know best.
How he managed to get all the way from the Netherlands with that driving demonstration in will never know. My dog could of made less of a mess than that ๐
Thereโs drivers and screw drivers ๐๐
To all the people laughing at the bloke why donโt you give it a go and letโs see how you do. Itโs not an easy job in the slightest.
What a sad life you must have get a job ๐คก
I deal with Smeets weekly (Dutch company) and theyโre always spot on. This driver totally fluffed his approach lines, but the FTW staff also failed by not assisting him correctly with his manoeuvre.
1:29 @Dceuropean That truckdriver made hard work of that manoeuvre, lightwork for you, DC! ๐คฃ๐
Well he passed this HGV…not! Bloody hell what is a dork like that doing in charge of a big HGV truck? I wouldn't give him a moped licence!!!!!
Who was his HGV trainer? Mr McGoo??
That company had a shortage of drivers that day, so they got the fork lift driver to fill in! Bloody hell, that is ridiculous!
There will be people watching this, looking to trace that driver to have his licence revoked, quite rightly too!
If he has a LEGIT HGV licence, im King Charlie.
Didn't know Temu sold HGV licenses. That was just shocking all round.
That bloke can't drive a truck. Forkin' hell what a Muppet. I've seen drivers take much tighter than that
If only that Forklift company had a way of lifting the trailer into alignment!
What awful drivingโฆ.
You got here just at the right time ๐ญ๐ญ
Love all the criticism here of the driver. Unfortunately due to it being a Left Hand Drive truck, the driver was having to โBlindsideโ the reverse. No Articulated LGV driver likes it because you canโt see. All you see is fresh air in one mirror, and the side of a trailer in the other. If it had been a RHD truck, the driver could have looked out the window to see better where the trailer was going.
The yard is in a poor position, in an ideal world this driver should have been able to drive down the road forward and then reverse on his โGoodโ side, and no doubt heโd have nailed it.
The banksmen were also no help, standing where he couldnโt see them, and advising him to get the truck over when he was a foot away from the fence in front.
He definitely got flustered, but then wouldnโt you with a camera and drone on you??
Cool video by the way, and good on you for moving the bike to give him one less thing to worry about.
He totally screwed that up, how the hell did he pass his test, that is a piss easy reverse
A Hole for filming a struggling Lorry driver
Yes he messed up. But. Could the prick at the gate and the knob with the camera do better? Doubt it
