      So great to see the owner of a multi million dollar operation is full out there driving his trucks and getting his hands dirty like the rest of you. Old school…helps the younguns see the value of hard work.
      At some point though he needs to get off the streets and play with his grandkids…I’m sure he will be an awesome influence on them too!😉👍

      Amazing how drivers could crash like that. 2 days of training and here you go have fun. Electronic log books sure dont seem to be making the roads any safer. Instead of stricter laws and more regulation maybe they should try to hire quality drivers and treat right to keep them. They sure not making hwys safer by hiring clowns then create laws that make things more unsafe as quality drivers quit. Typical govt though. Screw up everything they do.

Can't comment without thanking Josh for the work he puts into these videos. Great Job All.

      The flip side is was there another place to park? If the truck was scheduled to be at a particular place and time and there was no staging available... Or, the driver was out of hours and no truck stop parking....
      Parking roadside is risky, but you always have to ask if there was an alternative.

    • @45KevinR
      @45KevinR 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I'm guessing, but the cab probably gives you a passenger cell like in cars, and the shearing off acts like a crumple zone giving you less g over a longer time. The downside is you'll only ever crash that truck once! It's like 1970s cars vs crumple zone cars. The old ones the driver was a gonna but you could sell the car, the modern ones sacrifice themselves to protect the occupants.

Notice how he was too far onto the non merge area. and tried to cut the wheel like he tried to avoid the accident. Clearly HIS FAULT!

    Really great that the driver walked away from that one. Not sure, but suspecting it may have something to do with the cab suspension systems that are designed in giving essentially a "breakaway" joint for the cab which acts like an escape capsule. No idea whether it's intentional or not, but fortuitous in this case.

      Maybe they use more care when heavy - not so casual. Stopped on shoulder - fail, unless breakdown. Wandered off traffic lane (maybe distracted by phone) - fail. Two wrongs make a wreck, Volvo sells a new tractor. Lucky driver gets to fight another day - if smart, in a different trade.

      Promotional idea - photo and autograph sessions at a safe place, for the fans. Beautiful rigs, glamorous stars. Do you make appearances at exhibitions? Maybe a TH-cam expo. Move some merch, impress the crowd. If those recovery calls would just stop for a few hours.
