TIGHT TURNS IN A SEMI TRUCK - THE ULTIMATE COMPILATION
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
If you've driven transport trucks before, you'll know that they need a LOT of space for making turns. Usually more than what the painted lines will give you. You have to plan your approach with almost every turn, and often take up the space of the left-hand-turn lane you're approaching. Sometimes traffic gets it and gives you space, other times you have to get a bit "creative" in telling other traffic you're going to need their lane. All in all as long as you come home with your bumper straight you're doing alright!
This is a mix of a few different tight turns I've made. Some you may have seen in my other videos, others are exclusive to this video! Some are easier than others, some are lucky there was no traffic around!! Haha anyways enjoy!

We have a four way stop light in front of our walmart and Kraft is on the other side of the intersection from walmart and I sometimes see a semi coming up and getting ready to turn and I stop some back so they can easily make the corner. About 90% of the time the truck driver waves to me

I like how you make a point to wave at the drivers that give you the space.
Driven 379s for 15 of my 20 years.. I seen and took some really tight turns too. You handled your 379 like a true professional. Good job and keep up the excellent work. Drive safe driver.
Love the videos man. I'm a rookie, graduated school in March 2023 and have been driving for my company for three months. Almost my second month on my own!
You make it look so easy. What a pro. Your truck sounds so sweet.
It really helps when the car drivers have a clue and try to make room!
The fact that you take the time to wave to people that give you the space is just fuckin awesome. You’re the man🤙
Love the vibe of this trucker, how he acknowledges the ppl that drive right.

Get out the way 4 wheelers big boys coming through 🚛💨💨
Damn man that truck is amazing. And you're a good driver too because you stay calm. Patience when waiting for a proper and safe set up, yet aggressive in your execution when the moment presents itself.
If we could just get the traffic to to cooperate in the cities and towns we'd be a lot less aggravated.. lol good job either way. My old 379 doesn't have those fancy power windows, locks or mirrors, I wish it did.
Then, you’re riding around waving at everybody like a boss.. I love it! 😂
Every person that drives a regular vehicle needs to watch this to realize how much space a truck driver needs. The lines on the road for where are you stop are there for a reason.
I love the way you incorporate the mirrors in to your videos. Well done sir!

The most patient respectful drivers
This has got to be the most respectful town I have ever seen. People are aware and attentive. Sure to leave space or know when to get out of the way.
You’re a beast. Thank you for being smart! Great driver right here guys!
I love the long, shiny gear sticks of those trucks!
Nice Peterbilt and great skills. Love the turbo whistle and sounds like a beast.
Have never seen your videos before, but I’m watching along and all of a sudden, I realize I can pick out some of the towns your driving through! Awesome video!
You are a heck of a great driver. I give you lots of credit. From 1 truck driver to another. Stay safe bro.
Love it!!! And the waves. You make it look easy.
One of the only channels that i will hit the like button before i hit the play button , never disappointed man love your content keep it coming. i always look for your truck when im out hoping to get a wave one day ;) stay safe out there brother Edit - My Favourite video so far !!!!!!!!!! straight banger
Gosh dang it !!! Finally a vid making us look good !!!! 🤝🚚🚛🛣

Wow man! When you know your job! What a driver! I watched a lot of truck videos, but this one, is the best I have seen so far! Thanks for your videos good job!
Man, beautiful truck so your driving.I definitely learnt from you.Thanks bro.
I real deal watched this whole video… mad props dude 🤟🏽
I do a lot of 2 lane roads hauling agricultural commodities. You have to own the road. It would not be the first time some impatient 4 wheeler passed me in the soybeans as I back in a farm lane. Good work showing the labor involved keeping in on the pavement and off the poles!
So satisfying to watch. I just drive a 24 foot 5 ton around a city, not a semi, but man sometimes people do not make it easy on ya "the stop line is back there for a reason ya jackwagon!", I can't even imagine how bad it can get in a big rig!
Wow. When you drive downtown it is like having an elefnat in a glass house. It is very pleasant watching you driving.
When you can see the end of your B train in your mirror...it is soooo far away! Awesome.
Wow, those chrome gauges and that sound.. beautiful truck man.. a real cherry
