Great insight into a HGV drivers life on the road. Looks like you take great care and have a calm temperament. I'd be frothing at the mouth in traffic jams, or stuck in a tight yard, ha ha 😅. I still don't quite get how your employment works though. You get tasked with a drive and drop offs or collections. Sometimes you make it home, but you might not so you are stuck in a services overnight. So what if you were expected to be driving from your home depot the next day with another load but you are stuck elsewhere? When you get stuck out you sometimes get a collection, but surely you must end up back at your depot just a few hours into the next working day? Do they just find you some more deliveries? Can't quite work out in my head how they task you and pay you! 😂

Its a tricky job like no doubt about it

Love the vids mate keep it up. I really like the extras of the service station visits and your dinners! Hope the wrap was good 😄

Top man ❤

Great vlog and nice man cave pal. Good to see some shipley transport at start of video in the services. Take care mate

Why would drivers (tramping) who work for a certain firm stop on the road outside the said firms depot to spend the night ? Why not park in the secure yard ? I see it all the time in my local area (Paisley ).

One of the better truck TH-camrs to watch always giving hints and tips witch are priceless I’m a driver my self and I would urge any new drivers to take note Darren the hgv class 1 driver here in the uk 😊 is one of the few that gives helpful tips and pointers while out on the roads witch money can’t buy you

i find traffic is less on a friday morning on the motorways now im always on m60 m62 m6 people working 4 days week i think

Great vlog again mate

Gr8 channell mate . Would like to see more content of when yr stopping in a servive station ,i-e cooking etc

When doing tight reversing around corners, do the back tyres of the trailer basically get dragged sideways across the tarmac?

Happy birthday, Darren!

Great video as always Darren🚛👍🏻

Awesome mate

Wow your gardens massive, what type of foxes are they

Brilliant video pal new sub😊😊

One of the main reason i quit,idiot planners and brown nose clueless pen pushers in the office supposedly assessing places,greedy bosses who doesn’t care about where the artics get sent to.absolute stupidity at its best,massive respect to you and other truckers who are still grinding hard and have patience to put up with the 💩 show.👍🏻🙏🏻

Not sure your height, but if you went left with the truck that was behind you just before Aberdour (aber-dower) :) you would have popped out at the right turn roundabout in Kirkaldy. Save you doing the coast road...

Awesome video as per usual, may I ask what software you use to do the videos mate? As just landed European driving job so starting my own channel 😀

Great video, excellent view out the front windscreen. Great reversing. Deffo made right call to stop at those services for the night.

Only subscribed few days ago, that industrial estate not too far from where I stay I sometimes go through there when out a run. Good video

I just do semi local work now

I spy with something beginning with V

Saddle Worth Moors 😢😢

Why do cars just crawl out like that on a slip road at 12:30. It’s so frustrating. Put your foot down! Also mate, do you watch other truck TH-camrs? Like Luke C in a HGV or Kevtee?

Hi Darren not checked in for a bit but so happy to see your subscriber numbers are rocketing upwards. Said they would all that time ago and it's thoroughly deserved, the quality of your videos has never ebbed and I think you are amongst the best truck vloggers in the country now, with various camera positions while manoeuvring, hooking up and doing the daily checks along with helpful advice and tips for new and upcoming drivers. I'm in awe at your ability to keep the almost daily videos coming at such quality, it takes me more than a day to put together one weekly video! 6:54 M62 J26-J27 was my very first, in fact my first 3 deliveries of tarmac back in the spring of '84! After loading and 20 minutes of driving I had to get the atlas out to find my way to the M1! It was on that 2nd or 3rd load that a girl flashed me from the back seat of a bus, I knew then this was the job for me. 😮😉😂🤣🤣 Have seen lots of stuff in the years since too! I remember the tall ships video you mentioned. Sorry you didn't make it back this night but hopefully the old adage was true that absence did indeed make the heart grow fonder. All the very best to you and yours. Have a good weekend.

Riva foods Hull they do garlic bread picked up from there many years ago many times when I use to work for farmfoods we had to pump truck them on never had loading bay back then 🤣🤣I hope all is well Darren mrs little man 👌👍👍ps Ferrybridge services lol 👌👍👍

The house in the middle of the M62 is called Stott Hall Farm. It wasn't demolished to make way for the M62 because of a geological issue under the farm, which would have made the surface of the road unstable. Hence, the building survived and still stands, to this day!

Great news on 4.5 subscribers Darren well deserved buddy have great weekend with family 👍

If you research the house think you will find, that the ground was not suitable for a motorway.

Very easy to watch you have a nice way about you.

pay for parking.Just wow

New here and cant stop watching, absolutely love the content. Always smiling, love for life and peacful time lapses. Whats not to love 🤙👍

Great video mate, Shame you didn't manage to get home that would of been nice for you, Hope you have a lovely weekend mate, Take care

darren, what is the best truck to drive with a full load power etc , thanks

Brilliant video as per Darren, sunscriber count just keeps climbing! I believe the true version for the house is that the ground isn't structural enough to be able to withhold the traffic. Although I do like the version where the owners didn't sell it haha!

Great video, lovely views on the M6, good shots of the truck, so pleased little man is on the mend, he is delightful.

It's hard Walt

Nice video, the M62 looks really nice never been across that before, was that services you stopped for a break Ferrybridge ? I've stopped there once before doing a Doncaster trunk. Pity you never made it home but hopefully home tonight since it's Friday

If you want a good day out go to the deep really good day you all will love it great video pity you didn’t get home though

Kirkcaldy pronounced kirkody

At @27:50, I first thought you've killed a bird then realized it was part of the tree. The way it was clumped looked like some resemblance of a bird. I hadn't realized that sub counted doubled. Congrats 🎉🎉🎉🎉🥳🥳🥳🥳🎂🎂🎂🎂

Shame you didn't make it back home yo be with the family but still great vlog. Have a good weekend mate.

Wow 4.5K subscribers now not bad nice one Darren keep it up 👍

Bit of a dramatic title?! Obvs it only means the alternative is having to sleep in the cab & get home tomorrow. But I did a double-take at first 😂

Apparently guy refused to sell so built around him drove up it many times when visiting Yorkshire

My home town is Halifax

Brilliant video mate i see u stopped at Ferrybridge services off the m62 I live 5 mins from there stay safe pal

Awesome video Darren that house in the middle of the highway or motorway as you call it is a trip. I bet there is a lot of pollution that you can’t see circling around the house anyways thank you Darren love looking out your front window as your trucking down the motorways and love, the fact that you give us, some facts as you’re driving about certain things again thank you my friend. Drive safe.💯🙏🇺🇸🇬🇧

first time seeing your vids great video man as a fifer as a myself very good attempt of saying Kirkcaldy the second k is silent going up the coast of Kirkcaldy we call it the prom
