POV Truck Driving : How To Turn Around On A Dead End Road 

The good old Kiwi way, can't explain it, just know how to do it.

its a real pleasure to watch a truck driver at work.

Awesome, I have driven truck and trailers for 5 years have not been in that situation before, hope I never do but you made that look easy.

i’ve driven trucks all my life ,but that was impressive,at first i thought you were going to back into the drive and i was like no fkn way 😂

I got caught in a dead-end with a long tray truck in suburban Melbourne - backed into a drive way with a brick fence - you know the story - edged fwd & the whole brick fence crashed onto the footpath.....that was amateur hour. What you did was Olympic Gold.

Ah..... never understood why truck and trailers have such long drawbars, especially Tippers... so they can turn in a real tight radius? Had to laugh at those cows watching.... they be like... "Oh no, not my turn for the freezing works is it???"

Hi steve, That eroad you have... when you go off-road, ipresume it stop adding the ks. Because you are not on road or does it record all then give a credit on the next sticker. I presume being on farmland is not counted as being on a road??

Thats not as easy as it looks good driving!

Good job mate! Actually how long could make class 4 or 5 test after got the full license ?

Top skills bro. Been there back in my truck and dog tipper days just through having no other choices haha. If it gets you out of a tight spot without wrecking the gear or someones property it's all good

Very skillful .... Those rear trailer wheels must suffer from a lot of Scuffing as you drive off?

Professional g

That looks like Parakai by the airfield?

What does the 'H' mean on the window?

Nailed it bud

Man I had to figure this one out the hard way! Glad you’ve taken the time to show us how it’s done. Keep the videos coming bro

Beautiful. Amazing how far you can go without getting hitch bound or bending metal somewhere

Classy! Always figured it wasn't a handbrake turn. Keep it up ,a lot of us enjoy your day.

Nice 😎

Good job 👏

Nice turn. I have done same many times and i was hoping you could explain how to do since neither I can explain it just know how to do it.

Like a pro

Nice one gee. Can’t explain it, just do it. That’s the kiwi way.

Nice backing, but u should let everyone know u are empty, that’s a risky move loaded, and 💩can hit the fan real fast

Damn that was awesome to watch. My husband drives a truck and dog I Australia and does exactly the same. I asked him how he knows what to do and his reply is exactly the same as yours i just know he says lol. Kiwi through and through bro.

Bugga. You make that look so dam easy. Alao, love how ya said churr at the end.

Well done mate

Mean skills cuzzy👍👍

Why you not didt steer the hole trailer in the side way !? Hase it to do with the condition of that way!? In Holland where i drive it is not wish at all to go of the tarmac, shoulders are always weak! How heavy is the hole combination !?

What a skiller driver. 😊

I'll cool the trailer uh , for the axle

Made it look easy

Wwll done! Is your scani twin steer? Makes it a bit easier too In that case .

Well done mate.

I take my hat off to you mate that was impressive an well driven

CHUR KUZZI BRO. MEAN!

Back in The DAY .When i Had NO POWER Steering That was HARD .TODAY Easy

You reverse

Try it with a Kenworth K200 and see how many shunts you need!

Good work mate , sometimes you can get yourself into difficulty with long vehicles ay. Some years ago I was driving a b double in Melbourne I had just picked up my trailers from a company which was on the edge of a residential zone. I stuffed up and left my paperwork in the office and had to go back to the factory . Usually dropping off at the factory I’d unhitch one loaded trailer and back it on the dock , I’d only have one trailer of liquid product because a double would be too heavy , and on leaving I’d take two mt trailers back to to the depot . To make a long story short I was facing the wrong way down the road with two trailers on and I did not know where the road would come out , anyway it was quite narrow and windy and after about 3/4 of a k I came to a court with a bunch of factory’s all dotted around the turning area which was fairly tight and with cars parked bloody everywhere making it tighter and a tray truck getting unloaded in the middle of the turn area . The tray driver was a gentleman and knew I was absolutely stuffed , so he drove into one of the adjacent factory’s for me . It was quite funny thinking back , people from the factory’s all came out to watch the idiot in the B double try an do a turn in this fairly tight court😂. Anyway , I took my time and used every inch of space with about a foot to spare at either end when the truck was jackknifing , I pulled it off with no damage to anything , a sigh of relief mate 😂.

Looks like one of Wombles trucks?

Who buy's the trailer wheel bearings. Not an owner driver.

Great skills mate.

That is very impressive and the fact that you knew what you were doing and kept you from losing your cool blows my mind. You are a hell of a truck driver Mate. Bless you and keep on trucking✌️✌️✌️
