Trucker Breaks Down In Glastonbury Just As The Festival Ends | Supertruckers 

Cluch : I'm trying but all these computers and electronics are in the way 😕

Kinda proofing old grandpa has alot of strength

@@carwashgaming3727 well they needed two for one new one.......thay are durable but i dont see any strength

@@stevengunter4990 if you go to 7.05 mins you’ll hear the guy say he’s just on tick over so has no power real on so they had 2 but only needed one tow truck

@@stevengunter4990 Found the child

There not choked up by emissions regulations

Lol

It’s not even a proper copper, it’s a PCSO (wannabe copper)

Driving at night through such villages would wake people and also likely to cause an accident as they are unlit. Most the roads are wide enough just the odd old village with escourt vehicle can block off ahead easily.

@@Dosedmonkey Nonsense, it might wake a few people but driving at night is way safer and better for congestion of traffic

@@therickman1990 i agree with you

@@therickman1990 No, it's more dangerous to do it at night because of the nature that it's dark. During the day, everything is illuminated and much easier for recovery or repair or Law Enforcement/Rescue assistance. People out on the roads at night are either more HGVs doing routine jobs on main roads or are racers that aren't paying attention to a massive lorry.

Anything is Possible in the UK its our "can do approach" same approach that handed Europe back to its owners in 1945. 🇬🇧🇬🇧

It's almost as if the TV company pays them to do something stupid to fill a series.

Life doesn’t stop because of some hippie festival.

felt the same way how are you doing

But they have their brakes sorted - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-P-giC24SxwE.html

Hopefully it was a manufacturing fault of some sort and as such a one off. If it's a design issue then that would be pretty shocking. These trucks aren't cheap as they need to be as reliable as possible. Even the DAF i drive at work is known in the truck world to not be thr most reliable, but compared to the cars i've owned its been better than them all in terns of breakdowns and issues per miles covered. Infact it has never actually broken down.

He burned out the clutch

@@ousooners5193 it's an automatic and likely uses an air operated automatic clutch.

I assume this was done on rails, which have FAR less rolling resistance than tires on asphalt

Not wrong

I know that because i watch super truckers!

@@sxui--robloxmore1156 👏

Idk why I read your comment w an accent

​@cabeza_deguevo4255 somerset accent 😅

I work for a crane company and all ower ballast trucks are manual for reasons like this. The automatic just doesn't cut it.

Unfortunately sometimes we can only go through villages etc, depending on the final location and if the customer requires it for a specific day then it gets there.

@@rambledogs2012 I don’t blame the transport company, I blame the quarry owners as they should of had better planning. They know when Glastonbury is on and the roads that would have been used to move the machine.

@@marksapollo Doesn't matter, they too will be on a tight time schedule in order to get the machinery in. A festival isn't going to be of any interest in stopping that schedule.

@@rambledogs2012 Yeap gotta keep them shareholders happy above ALL else. But if cars can’t get through, neither can emergency vehicles, you should think about that.

No emergency vehicle needed to get through so your point there is moot.

hahaha thought the same thing

If you look at the shifter it is an ishift

@@jamesw5607 I forgot to ad that I meant the I-shift with crawler gears

@@MattiAntsuK he will have crawler gears bud... for the work hes doing it will be speced with crawler gears

Liar 🤥

@@flalingbashers2957 What who?

The country doesn't stop because some hippies wanna go home.

@@djc1234 they clearly didn't need that piece of equipment on that day so yes they could have easily waited until the next morning, or he'll just do it like the rest of Europe a d move it at night

Its the customer that sets a deadline for when the need it.

😂😂😂😂

@@AnIdiotAboard_ Smh typical keyboard expert 🤦🏿‍♂️

all the truvknus autđtonszic

A lot of trucks are now autos, very few new manuals.

It's a backwards world. The US has automatic cars and manual trucks, whereas the UK has manual cars and automatic trucks. For the most part.

Same! And the thumbnail is misleading as well !

Why wouldn't there? If you film a documentary about a heavy haulage of course you would station a camera team at the office. Even if nothing goes wrong you can still film some stuff.

maybe if i want a show truck i'll get a scania volvos are the working class of trucks

@@JacobBite scania definitely the best truck can't beat a 164 \8/

*cough*, Scania S770 V8, anyone?

@Hello Chinalex how are you doing

@@JacobBite volvos are junk lol. Scanias V8 engines are superb. And the New ones have 770hp from factory. All though you can modify them To over 1000hp.

Back in the day you didnt have 100 ton exvcavators or loads like these that have to be dragged on slopes like these.

@@ExeQtd Even if... It wouldnt be a problem ;) The trucks where heavier due to steel instead of the modern day plastics to save some weight... Dont forget the engines where biiiig (12-16L to get the job done...) Today it's a Turbo with an engine... Back in the days it was an engine with a Turbo to help breath the engine properly to give it that extra push. Now Volvo says OOOH LOOK AT US WE GOT THE CRAWLING GEAR.... With the right gearbox you have the Crawlergear aswell... (Eaton 18speed for example) The real trouble with modern Curbsniffers is... Its a Robot doing all the work for ya... It decides what gear/what RPM etc (many trucks dont even have a kickdown anymore) back in the days it was the driver who did all the work.

@@TheTruth_187 i partly agree, i liked the big engines. But they are saving alot of weight so that they can haul more.

@@ExeQtd Very true :) MAN is excellent in that matter... They built the new TGS/TGX series... You can buy the heavy 13L ooor you buy the 200kg lighter 9L (up to 400HP) which can pull up to 40 tons if needed. I got the TGS 18.400 eventho i prefer the 13L engine that small 9L works like a dream aswell. Max Torque at 1000rpm. But how long will that engine last because small doesnt mean durable over the years.

Yes he did come across as a bit of a dim wit. I would have taken the keys out of the motor and gave them to him and said .Here you go plod do it yourself

Automatic

It's all fake for the cameras

Like new cars, to many electronics to go wrong

New tech introduces new points of failure. Better to make a simpler machine than a more advanced machine with the same capabilities.

You say this but I bet your car is older than 2008

nope, it's an AMT, automated manual transmission, has a pneumatic piston that activates the clutch

@@Arthurb06 I'm amazed it doest get shredded when pulling away by the massive torque of those engines

@@Trainman10715 they only deliver the torque at like 1400 RPM plus the truck does not give the full power till last gear and at 1400 orso rpm otherwise drive axles and other stuff will go bye bye by the first time you floor it

I don't think so ,he may have been able to book it as a period of availability ,but technically he could not have booked a meal break as he was required to stay on duty with the vehicle.

@@FK-zr9fn joke F , hes hardly going to fuck off to mac donnells !!!!!

King heavy haulage. Super truckers was the series

Volvo cars do the same, I had my car in the local mechanics and the guy had a Volvo SUV in when I went to get it. I got chatting and he said the owners over filled it with oil, but it’s because Volvo cars don’t have a dipstick! It’s all computerised and you have a digital dashboard level, he had to plug his fault finding computer in to find it was a simple overfill though, so the car wouldn’t run. Why replace a simple dipstick the computer?

@@marksapollo That would make it far to simple to do, if you need to use a computer then you need the right computer and software along with someone who knows how to use it, all this means that for a simple oil change that we all use to do years ago now means a visit to a main dealer and pay main dealer prices.

@@Ashworth-Media Very true. A way to create more cash.

@@Ashworth-Media that’s a lie 🤦🏼‍♂️

@@angus1682 I never post lies, only the truth, so with the plugging in a computer this is done instead of having the old fashioned service book stamped up by the garage, now all the service data (i.e. oil changes) is now being stored in the car, we are taking BMW's Merc's etc. Read up about how torque convertors work with there fluid dynamics and you will see that I am correct.

Atau bahkan p420 cukup

Exactly my thoughts. I don't think people realise how much media/TV is just made up stories for the sake of entertainment. What a load of crap haha

I imagine the breakdown was real. After that they filmed and acted as if it was happening live for that scene for drama

@@piddy2 Fair comment i must have been having senior moment !

Look up supertruckers

@@kevinjarman6930 I can’t find any. I can only watch series once which I’ve seen countless times

Series 1 I meant

Just did a quick Google search and they are listing 4 series.

@@kevinjarman6930 the only series you can watch is series 1. Either by buying it on prime or RU-vid. Can’t watch other series anywhere w

They all break some are just better than others

@@gregshearer423 volvo does usually do pretty well with safety

@Alan Lund I've seen a newer volvo truck model shifting something like 750 tons. Not far but they were showing the new transmission, under its own power the truck went about 100 meters. Should be on volvos official channel

How about the human error in this? 33 degrees outside on hilly terrain through traffic. Just letting the automatic gearbox do everything on it's own in such conditions I fill pity for it. Just think of what it takes to continuously shift gears accelerating and decelerating 130 tons. Curious to see the outcome if the clutch just overheated or if the i-shift just surrendered.

Every vehicle breaks down.

Volvo’s I-Shift gearbox is an automatic gearbox.
