Here's a trucker who took a HUGE RISKY decision - walking through a tight depot filled with dangerous goods! Watch as he takes on the challenge, and see just how safe it is to walk through a tight depot loaded with dangerous goods!

Calm down fella you'll make yourself ill stressing out everywhere you go.James Abbey, Burtonwood..... plenty of room.
Good content. I met a geeza who worked for Mark thompson transport. And he backed into the most impossible space at city link Aberdeen. He was a Genius behind the wheel 😊
Omg that yard was not tight 😂😂 Try working the clay pits Devon and Cornwall fella. Ex Tramper for a Spanish company and 24 yrs HGV 1 experience. Keep learning the trade and in time you will know what us veteran's of the road are talking about. Keep driving and learning on the job thats all you can do plus listen to frindly advice from the older drivers. They generally are helpful if you are prepared to listen. Take care and stay safe
recently got out of hgv driving . being spoken to like crap at sites , treated like crap by other road users , vosa , list goes on no wonder there's a shortage of hgv drivers.

I don’t think there is any shortage anymore. Iv got 8 years class 2 experience. Now got my class 1 and full ADR with tanks. I have applied for nearly 250 jobs in the last month and heard back from 4 of them. That includes agencies, class 2 work and class 1. I thibk the government allowing people to jump from car to artic has created a HIGE influx of drivers. More than there is jobs.

Hi mate, Your content is great. You seem like a great character and a very good driver. I come here randomly after playing Euro truck sim 2 and I struggle reversing in the biggest spaces let alone the stuff you have to deal with. Keep up the good work bro 👍🏻👍🏻

Respect to you pal my grandad was a hgv lorry driver for 40 odd years I used to go out with him a couple times the size of them truck against tiny U.K. roads is a nightmare and requires alot of patience
Either man up or sod off out the industry its the easiest job in the world and your getting paid for it 😂
I like now that you are using photos you have took instead of pictures of the internet.
i love the POV and the tight places
2 pallets would of been fine 1 stood up against load and the other on a angle once in position stamp on it !! Will wedge it secure just a tip if your ever in same situation and not many pallets about
Bloke thinking he is the first wagon ever to go to them factory's. Wagon have been going in and out for years. Dreamer
Nice one brother
pretty sure I saw you on wednesday driving through Didcot 🤟
As much use as a speed bump on a runway!🤦🏾♂️
Not sure if you are aware , but your cap is on backwards
"an inch from disaster" sounds very familiar to me
I have delivered to this place before and I don't see what all the fuss is about. The roads into it are far worse than the actual place he is delivering too! Also he came in the wrong way and I presume left the wrong way. You come in off the M62 onto Burtonwood Road then onto clay lane and follow that down to Phillips Lane. His sat nav took him the stressful "scenic" route because there is a 7.5 Tonne limit on Burtonwood road but is except for access so is fine to use to get to his delivery.

Yooo are you guys dull or dull? You guys must be blind how on earth are you saying that he’s OVER EXAGGERATING did you not see how close he was to that van! Like the guys not driving a smart car he’s in a HGV and those roads he gets sent to are ridiculous he’s not over exaggerating at all you guys just need to open your eyes
Surely someone could have just moved the van or the truck. Lorry driving can be such a nightmare due to something as little as a parked vehicle!
M62 off junction 6 through burtonwood clay lane 7.5ton road except for acess (means that there is a weight limit - nothing over 7.5 tonnes except for access. This. So HGVs don't use the road as a cut through so you can use it as its within the limit you need to deliver at)left onto philips lane 2nd entrance in past ad brown upholstry down to the corner at bedford packing and goodside reverse onto the bay 🤦🤦🤦
You only needed 2 pallets to secure the load
You only need Two pallets pal. One next to the pull pallet and the other in at angel and put your bar over. Blokes clueless
I would get them to move the van or refuse to go in simple
Why not just ask to get the white van shifted?
Roads designed for horse-drawn carriages
I want to make the move one of them to Vehicles out of the way but I'm also an American truck driver on our trucks are just Giant there's no way I'm going down that road you went down

US trucks wouldn't work in the UK at all. That's why we have cab-over & close coupled. However, this guy is an absolute drama queen. Wait until he gets a tight yard.

You should not be driving a HGV
At this point it musk be a pisstake ? I've been driving class 1 for just 2 weeks, the week just gone I was in the south coast of Scotland on the B840 running up the Loch Awe, this road is about 7ft wide, the tyres hand over about 3inch either side of the road. You meet cars, trailers etc on the road. Passing them you've got about 2inch, now that's tight but I think I could get it through better places still. You've got about 3ft of room and your running up and down. Your making most places herself by turning way to early... Must be a joke ?

Someone who drove trucks, was a shunter for several big companies and taught trucks for over 40 years. Why make such a song and dance about an everyday normal situation with plenty of space? Just a KZread drama queen with little experience.
