This Roundabout Messed Me Up So Bad As A Truck Driver 

A man that delivers on his promise. Thank you Dave, Merry Christmas

Classic Dave, _always_ being interrupted doing his intro by his GPS saying "in one and [whatever] miles". 😂😂😂 Hope y'all are having a safe & sane holiday-season.

It's a turbo roundabout, at least that's what we call them in the Netherlands. The idea is that you can follow the markings on the road and they will guide you from the inside to the outside. Biggest advantage for you is that you don't have to worry about cars on your sides. (Except for the one which had 2 lanes for left turns which seems poorly designed, but Ican understand why they did it. )

Merry Christmas Dave thanks for the video!

Dave, your more entertainment than a good movie. I literally laughed so hard I had tears in my eyes. Love your videos

We live in Louisville and HATE that roundabout. I'll go way out of the way to avoid it.

That roundabout concept is good, the implementation is lacking, which is made worse by US drivers in general being uneasy around roundabouts. You spent a lot of time freaking out about where you should line up early on during most of them, which shows that better signage is needed. In the Netherlands I see those types of roundabouts from time to time, and you really just need to get a bit of familiarity with their design to stop being uneasy around them even when you discover them somewhere you haven't been before. The problem is US drivers getting a chance to build up that familiarity. Seeing one every six months will not help you learn shit; you need to see them weekly for a while to build that familiarity.

Dave riding around in the “White Volvo Mafia” with crap hanging off his truck, mirror fairings missing, deer carcass hanging under his truck amd fender missing! Should be driving in Chicagoland😉😂🤣

Hey Dave passed me on I-59 about 15 miles north of Hattiesburg. He was in his jeep

Never a dull moment watching Dave great content as usual 🤣

Glad that you have lots of material to cover the hiatus. Roundabout in St. Cloud, MN, was my pain when trucking

You are where I live.. I know it is confusing we ALL hate that Round about. ALOT of AR trucks like to flip on its side on that round about.. we shamed the Hell out of the "architects" of that roundabout. My 13 year old son could have done a better job. I don't do truck driving anymore I went back into steel fabrication but I still love watching your videos.. every now and then you pass my home and I've even seen you pass my work. I know you've taken a break but if you get back into it and come back around this area throw A wave out there Cause I watch the Hell out of you my man. Also every Online truck that I see I wave at. Not knowing if it's you or not while also not trying to be too distracting.. Nothing but LOVE an RESPECT. Stay safe brother. Merry Christmas

Cool load. About the coolest load I get is 43K of chicken nuggets 😂 thanks for the video, Dave, hope your holidays go great

It looks like someone really failed at designing a dumbell interchange for the second round about

Merry Christmas Dave I got in trucking because of you bro 😎

When sliding tandems and they reach the back, I always release my trailer brake to push the pins out, then pull down on my johnson bar to make sure the trailer wheels don't move then I go in reverse so ensure those pins knock into those last holes. Then you can just release the johnson bar and continue your way to the dock. Merry Christmas Dave! Enjoy your break from trucking this winter! I've been driving for 5 and a half years now but only in the last three months have I officially been doing more regional OTR type stuff. Driving straight truck flatbeds (6mos), day cabs with 36' and 48' reefers (3.5 yrs), and hauling US Mail with a sleeper and a 53' but slip seating and home every night (1 yr). Just worked 11 days in a row, working on recap hours and the whole thing. I finally feel like a real trucker haha. Any advice for someone that's wanting to start their own RU-vid channel recording their daily adventures? I have my go pro and a few mounts, but I think I'm just scared to actually put content out there haha

Merry Christmas Dave.

Even I can tell you in europe this loadsafety wouldn't be allowed. This doesn't look safe at all!

Omg, I thought our round abouts were bad, holy cow.

Oh this is hilarious. I live near Jeffersonville and have used that specific way you went just once, never again. They put those in a few years back for just the heck of it - no real reasoning for them. That 30MPH zone is patrolled by the Utica town marshal & volunteer officers - they're super big on issuing tickets in these zones, be careful ha!

Merry Christmas, Dave. 🎅

I have anxiety driving regular roads but these roads I'd definitely have a heart attack 😂

Very commendable for stopping before the track because of the clearance. I have a regular route just like that.

thank you Dave,Merry Christmas to you and your family.

thats why i always use the left lane in a round about, then your trailer rides the round about and doesn't go into the other lane.

we have a roundabout in Australia it's 2 or 3 roundabouts they all link in with one another watching people who don't understand it is always stressful.

I don't see how u can go to sleep at 1 or 2 in the afternoon and start in the middle of the night lol I usually try to shut down around 4 or 5 and start around 4 am

Literally just picked up around that area the other day. Same roundabout and random stop sign lmao

That looks like Voss-Clark at Jeffersonville or it was back when I was still trucking.

merry christmas to you Dave.

Merry Christmas Dave always enjoy your videos

Merry Christmas Dave , Miss your funny self .

That roundabout at 4:00 is called a dog bone roundabout here in the usa

I work down in that area, and still that roundabout is confusing.

Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 Dave ❤ your vids

Hey Dave marry Christmas an happy new year stay safe Dave 👍

Have a Merry Christmas Dave, and safe and happy travels and time off.

10:55 it's called convenience, Dave. :P Not everyone wants to go walking around the store.

Adult riding bicycle=lost drivers license…😏

This reminds me how I was my first time in Port Newark, NJ. lol good times Merry Christmas 🎄

It’s alright I live in that area of Indiana and it messes us up to 😂

Merry Christmas Dave thanks for the vlogs....hope you get sorted real soon buddy

Hey dave love watching your channel u definitely my favorite RU-vidr merry Christmas from my family to your family

Could simply be a case of a bunch of folks that are from India honking like how they would honk back home in there home country! TBH in reference to the clip of this video at 0:00 before it says riding with Dave intro screen

Damn I was bored looking for videos,about time you post one lol.

Dude, you need to calm the nerves and realize that as long as you get from point a-b safely, that’s all that matters no matter how long it takes and who your holding up in traffic … -fellow trucker

lol I had the same reaction my first time driving on that roundabout.

Another great video & i know what U mean bout them tandems U want 2 get them as close if not right on before U go 2 the Cat scale.

Those are for banding for machine’s products

Roundabouts suck especially in a semi truck

How do you stay warm at night if the truck shuts down?

Hi how's it going watching from Broomfield Colorado

Hi Dave

Hey Dave, I hope all is well. I recently got my CDL, but honestly I'm extremely nervous about going OTR. Do you think I should wait till after winter?

What everyone from Rensselaer Indiana

It's December 23rd

Dave asking about CFI do they train CDL holder without experience??? I know you no longer work there just need info.

Hey Dave (and all of Dave's fans/subscribers). Ive got a rookie-question; How often do y'all put a padlock on the trailer? Is it pretty common to leave the trailer-doors unlocked (& if its pretty common, how often does stuff get stolen?)?

Good night 💤 sleep tight

WOW, new to roundabouts, rookies scare people.

Are they going to let you be home on Christmas

Roundabouts are so dumb and needlessly confusing.

HI DAVE

Well Dave,how did you know the weight?Even with an app,you need a scale,you said you were going to weigh anyway.Where were you reading the weight?

Good job broo

Who else loves RWD?

Bro who you driving for now??

Traffic circles are stupid

Love you too and love you too

What would you do if all you had is a map, truck drivers weren’t made very good these days.

Wait wait, so are you still with the company or something?? This video confuses me since you just uploaded last video of you cleaning out your truck and the title said that you put your two weeks in

I thought you were taking a break?

So happy ❤

Do u still vape?

Thought you quit again

😊

First Dave

For the most part your video is accurate but once you made turn at end of the road. It's not real. I live in Indiana same area you was in but content isn't correct is all fake

You should stop taking, making drivers look stupid.

Merry Christmas Dave
