Hi im John Follow me as a class 1 truck driver i passed my HGV Class 2 on the 17th of July 2018 and started my career on the 1st of September 2018 and furthered my Career by passing my Class 1 HGV in September 2020, Though I am relatively new to HGV driving I am not new to the transport industry as I have previously been a van driver for nearly 13 years and my Father has been a truck driver since the Mid 70's and is still going now even though he is in his 70's , follow me all over the UK as I make my deliveries and collections
I agree with your views on electric cars/vehicles John"O, all electric vehicles are doing for pollution, is move any pollutants from the vehicle to the ruddy power station, I've just purchased a new car went for a mild hybrid, so I did investigate going electric, 'but' until EV's sound like a V8 or a Ferrari & the infrastructure to service them appears, I feel going electric is a fools game,... x
Hi John O I love your latest video & that would be some distance from Taunting Somerset to pick up a trailer in Bonny Scotland 🏴 Pal. Plus if you’ve found it too hot in the South you can have some of the Scottish 🏴 weather as it’s been a cold summer here Pal. Put it this way I’m 51 years old & it’s the first ever cold July in my lifetime & totally 💯% I’ll stick with Diesel ⛽️ & Petrol ⛽️ 💯% Buddy. 👍
Make you right about EV cars,whats more of a worry is how many of these productive fields are being put under solar,we are going to be very green but starving.
i drive a truck i was hit by by another truck from behind when i slowed for a broken down truck in front i was tipped over by the truck behind the driver that hit me died and i was to hurt but it done me mentally im still hornted now after two years please reinstate the hard shoulder now the thick government
Sorry you’d a crap time with lorry repairs.Bet you kept all off till you felt lorry charged.I think you are correct on solar farm/electric cars.Thanks Johno watching last half now.a.okx
They could have had you on a closer to home job.............like Charlton.......but not by going along Charlton Rd, under a low bridge..........pulling a high box sider 😂😂😂 I totally agree John. I'll not buy an electric car if I can help it.
Interesting vlog John. I hate all this solar stuff on wonderful farmland. It should be producing food, put them on houses, industrial sites and rook over carparks. Take care and thank you.
Another good one John-o. 👍 Totally agree on the electric car front . Horrendous cost to change the batteries if they go wrong, cheaper to scrap the car, good for the environment !!! don't think so .
You don't have to have a degree to realise that we can't live without fossil fuel. Look at the millions of HGVs moving everything we need around the Country, look at Aircraft, Ships, Generators the list is endless. Plus where is all the Electricity going to come from, we can hardly keep up in the Winter. Its a pipedream, encouraged by the People making billions off the back of it.🤬🤬
Good one John o I feel like you about electric car's but I heard that Volvo are pulling out of the contract and Still going to make petrol and diesel vehicles after the 2035 ????
yup apparently they no longer even do a red X.. just a "optional" lane divert. a lane divert.. that any SANE person would stay in the lane till the red X, which is normal. seen a video of a tow truck driver having a flat out argument with them to get a red x. because he had no way to get out
Thanks Johno,Brill vid,Love watching Truckfests,will get to one someday,on my bucket list,If it wasn`t for you guys n gals Where would we be ?.Tons of Respect for you all,Convoy Trucking through the night,,,and day❤.
Another great video John......the camera facing you was a bit dark or maybe that was my laptop but great job....please keep the videos coming....cheers
Hi John-o, great video again. When you need to do a tight manoeuvre the road always gets busier, last week I had a tight gateway to get through in Shepton Mallet, right on the A37😳 funny how it goes from a quiet road to something like the M1 instead of the A37 just when you need to block the road🤦♀️😂 have a good weekend
