That first shot looks like utter chaos. As though some mid level manager in the city sent out every driver in every piece of equipment available to go to the job site with vague instructions to “clean up.” Beverly Hills and Santa Monica look much more organized, they both have some really nice equipment. Also very lucky you caught this right before the world shut down.
Wow, Mando's Kenworth long dump looks goooood! Enjoyed watching the PB loaders at work with all the cups, that never gets old. And that Pete long dump at 9:18 was gorgeous too! Didn't know LA had those! SaMo was great. Loved watching the Scorpions collect the 300s and also liked the street sweeper footage at 25:49 in particular. Great job!
PB loaders are useless when it comes to cleaning up stuff like that , they are designed for soil and asphalt hauling. The bucket on the front is for the driver to load soil or other materials and continue on their way without needing a wheelloader to pickup the material.
No..they're used to pick up pine needles,streets heavy with leaves during leaf season or fall if you will...also for palm fronds and most other heavy debris from tree trunks, limbs to rockslides...
Those front loader trucks must be unique to America as we don't have them over here in England, i see they use both mechanical and suction sweepers too, we only have the suction ones over here.
if your talking about garbage truck front loaders they’re found in Australia too, but if your talking about the yellow PB loaders I believe they are unique to USA only.
@George White - We do still have the mechanical ones in the UK. My son-in-law drives one and brings it home every night, then parks it outside their house, - ruddy great thing, the neighbours are always moaning.
I wonder how this happened it honestly kind of sad because all the animals that probably died from eating the trash I feel bad for all the people because they probably couldn't drive on the road and all kinds of stuff I just feel really bad for people and animals
Honestly the ALF trucks are not very effective picking up the big items use a RL and then use street sweepers to clean up the rest still I love the condor trucks cool to see how they use the 300s as well
7:19: Strangest reversing beep I've ever heard. 10:29: The hydraulic piston seems to be lacking in grease. 10:32: Automatic folding of the mirrors? 19:34: That voice came from the police motorcycle's walkie? 20:33: That tab that moves from left to right is the truck press? 24:05: It sounds like a tab when it sounds like this.
At 9:14 I really really super mega really love that brand new peterbilt semi truck & that brand new semi dump trailer👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Awesome video dude. The trucks with the buckets, are they used all year round or just for the marathon? If they are used year round what jobs do they complete
Bucket loaders are used on other things throughout the year. Some of these include brush removal and dirt hauling for Sanitation or the Department of Water and Power.
a smart person would think if they can throw the cups on the ground while running, they could throw it in a large rubbish bin. just putting it out there.
Why are there not people who put this run together out there picking this trash up! Including the runners all that wasted fuel and still a big mess to clean up, you can't tell me after a runner throws it down people on the side can't pick them up and put in a trash can? Use leaf blowers, rakes and brooms make big piles then load by frontend loader to dump trucks, what a joke that is and a waste of tax payer money.
I couldn't run marathons as I find it abhorrent to have trash in my hand and throw it on the ground. I saw a previous years video and people walking on the sidewalk would just go to the curb and throw whatever they had in their hands over the curb into the street! Nooooo! I don't have a good runner's body anyway, I'm 6'4" and wear a size 62 coat, so I'm not short and wiry. I've volunteered to help at mountain "super marathons" (50 milers and up to 9,600 feet elevation). Runners have to stop then throw their cups into trash cans, no exceptions.
