My dad drove 40 years in New York City. Let me tell you this one thing I have learned from him is that he always takes his time doesn't rush or anything even when its wide open. The amount of crazy things you'll come across trucking anywhere especially in NYC are literally unheard of.
Whats your favorite story
@@PropylBanwagon a few years back the cross bronx was shut down because a party bus had highschool kids going to the prom and one of the girls decided to stick her head out of the vent on the roof while going under the apartment's by Jerome ave. Took the upper half of her body off.
@@MrWisdom79 , are you freaking serious man ?
Just wait until there’s a jumper on the GW talk about sitting for hours
@@MrWisdom79 wtf. Yooo, shit crazy.
That's a fact: "if you can drive in New York, you can drive anywhere."
New Delhi : Hold My Curry.
@@mukherjeesuniversum2665 was just gonna point out 😂,
Also that punjabi uncle: hun pharh meri whiskey!
Chicago
Yeah just like in Lima,Peru
India: Am I a joke to you?
As someone who has lived and driven in NYC for years I am laughing at this, dude this is not traffic
I’m from Chicago and this is still extremely light
E Mendez it could dead be 3am and it will be packed
@@charlie-qi4rh Remember, traffic is much lighter now due to Covid 19. Normally some roads turn into crawl speed parking lots.
From what I saw the turns weren't that bad either
@@edmendez5171 Exactly lucky if the speedometer hits 10mph
lmaooooooooo THIS WAS AROUND QUARANTINE TIME, traffic was dead! Come back now, you will definitely rack your brain. lol
TEMPLE7D I started driving around quarantine went down there once with a trainer I went down there yesterday by myself it was the worst time of my life I thought I was going to pass out gps is useless took a wrong turn luckily got out with out incident fucking insane
Tyler Rogers Yeah! On my older phones, I used to have that issue downtown (tightly packed streets will cause the GPS to think you’re on the next street). Guessing that issue still happens with truck routing. But yeah, it’s best to pre plan your trip in the city , and to eventually learn the good ways.
- Just the other day, a guy snapped his trailer in half trying to cross under the elevated subway tracks. Avoid the subway lol
@@ts9216 lmao..we all must have done that once in our life!
😂
2021 update: traffic is SOOOOOOOOOO bad now! It’s WAY worse than before the pandemic.
Respect to the truckers and thank you for what you do to tranport goods that we all just pick up at locarl retailers. I once towed the longest trailer they have at uhaul from one state to another and it was a nightmare. I felt that I literally had someone riding on my shoulder all the way. I felt that I was going to hit something with the trailer in every turn. Truckers are hard working people, I've felt tired like this dude after a stressful and hard working day.
Many cities in the Northeast have an outdated infrastructure. Those streets were originally intended for 48’ trailers that were also narrower. The first time I took a 53’ through there I was carrying a hot load to a medical supply company, the location was so unbelievably tight that the nose of my tractor was sitting out in the street while they unloaded me. They had a few straight trucks docked on either side of me, I was the only large semi. Never going back, not worth the insurance risks or HOS burnt fighting traffic.
All the more reason they need huge dc’s up there to off load and let day cabs taken it in. I can’t deal with anymore north of Indiana or northeast of Central KY over
I Heard that! My first and only time was with a 53' foot, and it was Harrowing!?! 😷🤯
Eric Jr And technically 53’ trailers are not allowed in any of the NYC 5 boroughs.
Do trucks in the US have a required speed limit like in Europe?
@Camaro 1968 Hot load is usually a high value cargo/freight/load or client or both. It usually has restrictions and extra rules set by the carrier or shipper/client.
You did a great job. It's such an exhilarating moment when crossing that bridge to LEAVE
Bro keep a few dollars like you had out of your wallet but don’t pull your wallet out never know with crazy people in this world
Lol fuck those broke bitches

agreed, i keep cash in fr9ont pocket wallet in back
yamahonkawazuki someones gonna take ur wallet hella easy in ur back pocket dumbass
Ahh the ol GW. “We made the Lincoln tunnel too small for semis, so your only way in is across, that’ll also be $100.”
Hello Sean how are you doing today
Thanks for taking us along. You're a good driver and now you've got New York on your resume. You were cracking me up. 3000 foot rig! That yard looked a bit unforgiving.
Thanks guys, I’m not a truck driver but appreciate what you guys do!
Thank you. It's nice to be appreciated 😊
Hello Tom how are you doing today
Also, if you hit a vehicle’s mirror when it is double parked, it’s technically their fault. I just keep driving. Shouldn’t have been parked there 🤷🏼♂️
thats what i said, jus rip the mirror off its not your fault
Azteck Happy insert Steve Urkel if cops see it, “Did I do that?!”
I once had to make a right turn in NYC, in my Classic, pulling 48' skateboard with a 10-1 spread. I'd already moved 2 lanes of traffic but there was a brand new Mercedes something or other double parked so that I still couldn't make the turn. A cop came up on horseback and told me to move along. I showed him the situation and his exact words were "run over it, you're blocking my intersection and it's illegally parked". I said "ok sir". I hated to do it but, I sent a beautiful car to the scrapyard that morning.
Mike Brown that’s so beautiful! The police out here are actually not against truckers and understand what we have to deal with everyday. I once took up the entire intersection of Madison Ave and 59th street (super busy intersection) because of the stupid double light system still in place in the center. I looked at the traffic officer and showed her the light, she looked at me, and we both shrugged hahaha. I didn’t do it on purpose. I have yet to have to clear a turn in that manner, but I know I will at some point. I’ve taken a turn from the oncoming traffic lane a few times because I have to and people slow down, honk, and get on with their day. Moral of the story: we have to be the boss when driving in NYC, and the police will actually help you out if you explain it to them rationally. Stay safe brother!
@@baddriversofthenorcalarea500 that wouldn't make sense to Californian would it?
New York is easy considering everything in Boston is just a paved over horse path. New York in the city is at least grided and numbered. Boston is just a bunch of horse paths that paved over and slapped a name on. Boston road maps look like a plate of spaghetti.
Agree i rather go into NYC a hundred times before i go to Boston
Lol,try London then fella!
If you drive a truck through Boston, take it onto Storrow Drive. The locals will thank you :)
I agree Boston is a pain in the ass.
KevinSun242 I know all about storrow drive and it’s “short comings” 😂 thankfully not from experience. I’m a native Masshole 😂
When i drive i play music to keep me calm. I accepted the fact people are crazy. Keep calm and play upbeat music and eveything will play out fine.
Thank you for this video. Been trucking 20 years and have been all thru the Northeast. Worst cities that I have been through many times is Philadelphia and Baltimore. Low bridges and traffic biggest problem not to mention bad areas I've driven in. Stay safe driver I feel your pain!!
Ahh yes the cross Bronx. I run it almost every week. If you can’t get through there before 6am forget it!
i would never want to drive a tractor trailer, you guys are gods. and thanks for continuing to work through the pandemic
Before gps, more times than not, I would have my directions laid out. I’m rolling along with heightened state of awareness and you find yourself not being able to get a correct lane, or make a turn. Now you are pushing forward into the big unknown. Unable to turn around, unable to pull off to check your map... praying you can find an out. I think they were some of the most intense situations In all my experiences.
Midnight Ryder .....Man I can’t agree more with everything you said, been in those very situations!!! what a life we have. 2-3 days of pure boredom on the interstates followed by 2-3 hours of total chaos!! Good post my man you nailed it brother !!! Thank god for caffeine and nicotine.
Some people have what it takes some dont. Dude is too laid back too slow for NY City.
I'm 48 & remember driving to other places across Sussex England for business appointments, with just a map scribbled out & a few land marks.
Shephrd Chivaura slow and steady wins the race.
Drivers today rely too heavily on GPS. I wonder how many have a backup plan? Or at a minimum an extra GPS?
Seems like the commenters from New York are stuck up and think they know it all.
Thank you for posting and showing how horrible it can be for truckers. Appreciate your work.
Fact is, people from outside NYC are extremely soft and can't drive at all. They get scared navigating a Wal-Mart parking lot.
I've heard some crazy stories receiving trucks at the place I work. Seeing this just solidifies every story I've heard about trucking in NY, I appreciate what you guys do because this country would cease to function without you.
It's called the city that never sleeps for a reason my man... nighttime wouldn't be much easier haha but anyways stay safe g
They don’t just choose when to drive lol
What he was doing was very illegal, 53-ft trucks are banned from New York City streets except for designated truck routes. That's why his GPS kept saying he's going the wrong direction and why he couldn't make alot of those turns
The city definitely does sleep, traffic gets slow at like 11:30/12
@@MoeMoe-le9bx Agree. And you wont see traffic until about 5am
Coronavirus put the city to sleep tho...
What’s he talking about “ this is crazy man” there’s hardly any traffic!

The struggle is real, know how it feels. Great job young man. You've earned some rest. Never knew what stress was before I rode those 18 wheels, esp. out east. It takes a lot out of you, but you keep movin' on. It's in your blood now. Something about it, but no one can explain it. Just is.

Hey respect to you brotha for even taking that load and relying on your skills to make it. Keep up the good work 🙏🙏🙏
Feels like my first time going to the bronx all over again. You handled that well man! Whenever I get dispatched there, I'm always studying those ins and outs. Looking and calling about construction. As a trucker, knowledge is our ultimate power on these roads. Most of the folks I've met there are decent. Some s little rough around the edges, but when you live in such a densely packed place, it's understandable. Keep trucking driver!
Hello Christopher how are you doing today
You mentioned “Broker is mad” 😡😡. cause your late. Love to put them in our seat for a couple hours. Lol
I'm feeling ya brother! I made a delivery to downtown Bronx one time. I called my dispatcher and told him to NEVER try sending me there again!! I'll quit the job before I go there again!
Weird hearing the South Bronx called downtown Bronx. Is that what a lot of truckers refer to it as?
So glad I left my big city 17 years ago, here there is literally no traffic - and the small town is along a river, with bike paths and fishing and I don't miss the big city AT ALL.
proven in studies - cities bring the absolute worst out of people due to mob mentality and copy cat - out doers
Where'd you go Tom?
There's a ton of people moving to my area from places like ny and California and it kinda sucks

They even added homeless people and the ability to give them change!
There’s no fuckin I found someone that plays ats lmao. We should play sometime I really thought I would never find anyone lol
Hello James how are you doing today
You did an excellent job. Those roads were very maneuverable with a cab over and a 48"ft trailer..lol Thanks for the video.
I loved watching this videos. The challenges were literally at every corner. You are a really good driver and keep your nerves in check really well.
Thank you Santiago
Great vid man excellent driving from one trucker to another. I know how mentally draining it gets. A long nose truck an NY city just don't mix. You a bad boy though the way you whip that big beast. Much respect man stay safe out there.
I used to love coming out the city across the Williamsburg bridge on delancy street and china town...I di it so many times that I actually enjoyed it!...I had it down Pat!...New Yorkers are very amusing, love the way they talk.. and im sure that by me being a down south country boy, they thought the same of me lol...Most people say that they are stuck up, not so, just start a conversation and its game on!...Loved it, Loved the people
They are extremely stuck up. Clearly you haven't met enough of them lol
I used to be an otc trucker before I went full time into auctioneering but I never had to drive a cmv in New York City. Well done man! I kept my cdl but haven’t driven a rig since 2008 except a dump truck now and then. Stay safe man.
Every time I ever go to NYC, I always think to myself, how can all this chaos allow a city to function?
There are no lanes brother! You gotta make your own 🤣... we do what we need to do to get that truck to it’s next location. Take two lanes whenever you need to. Questionable turn, take two lanes. Getting too close to the cars on the side? Take two lanes and enjoy some coffee ☕️
Southerners are used to wide open streets, that's when they become super truckers 😂 We whip 53fters in the city like Honda's in the fast n furious.
New Jersey- the super trucking rookie that’s how I drive down most of the avenues 😂
lol👏
Anybody who can drive a big rig through New York City and the Bronx gets my approval. Well done my friend. You got a big rig through traffic without banging up your truck or some idiot car driver. Keep smiling and drive safely.
OTR rookie you’re not!! U are a expert. Excellent maneuvering though the den of hell! Fine job driving that big rig my man! It’s you against them and it’s do or die there! Great vid!
You did great..👍 you are still alive..sending prayer going back..
Best. Trucking. Video. Ever! First trucking video that I’ve seen packed with laughs! Great job man!
Ran Hicksville, Long Island 2 times a week back in the day, and it was a nightmare. The good part about it, is now being a 20 yr driver out here, running in that Northeast corner helped me running in all these others states, because if you can navigate NYC you can pretty much run everywhere else. Be safe out there Driver!!
I gain a whole new perspective and respect for trucking/truckers when I got my CDL’s and started driving.
I've been driving here for 6 years now man my advice is pre plan your trip have a plan a,b,c don't panic if your stuck or don't know what to do just put your flashers on and stop and take it easy enjoy the city i personally love driving here and wouldn't drive any where else
Great video. Reminds me of when I lived in NYC (1986-90) and occasionally rented a car on weekends. By the time one had collected the car (Manhattan car rental places are mobbed on Saturday mornings) and got out of the City and through inner NJ . . . . the best part of the morning was gone!
Thanks for posting. I enjoyed riding along with you even though I dozed off a few times while sitting in traffic with you. LOL I definitely would have the patience or desire to drive in New York.
Hey man... Your video brought back so many memories... When you started out in the Hunts Point area of the Bronx and passed up the produce market on the right, I could only think about the times working with my Pop and older Brother on their trucks moving produce throughout the Bronx and upper Manhattan during many summers in the late 1970's to early '80's. I learned how to drive a truck then, and I can tell you that the city was probably crazier in those days if you could imagine. It was the times of the "Son of Sam" murders and when crack cocaine hit the streets. As you mentioned, no rules applied when driving. Double and triple parked cars were common. It was a frustrating nightmare trying to just do our job each and every day! After loading the trucks all morning, we left the market in Hunts Point and took basically the same route each day to start our deliveries. Jumped on the Bruckner then took the Cross Bronx Expressway towards the George Washington Bridge with inevitable daily traffic which what you experienced too. For my Pop, our usual first stop was the last exit right before you hit the GW Bridge at 181st Street. Then you had to deal with crazy traffic on the streets again and the typical NY attitude for the rest of the day with deliveries of the perishable produce. Many times the Thermo King refrigeration was broken. Pop's truck at the time was a GMC Brigadier with a Detroit turbo diesel straight job with ten wheels. I can remember one time in frustration, we were stuck on a one way street with a car parked in the middle so no way a truck could get by. After firing off the air horn for a few minutes and no response, he dropped the clutch and just "moved" the car out of the way. It felt like a small victory!! By the way, when that guy approached you for some money, back in the day his "buddy" would be at the back of your truck to see if he could open it up and grab what he could! Both my Pop and Brother carried fire arms (probably illegally) for protection. All I can say is that I learned more on that truck than at NYU!! I am now an eye doc for over 30 years, but appreciate what you truckers have to do! I am truly thankful for all your hard work and keeping America stocked especially during this COVID-19 crisis! Drive safely and thanks for the video!
I thought that area looked super familiar when that guy came up to the truck. I grew up right on the other side of that expressway. I don't think I even could handle driving a car there. I got my license at 25 yrs old in Florida. I went through 2 driving schools, too. 😂
I’ve been doing that route every day twice a day for 13 years, with a 80 ft car carrier, I just sit back and listen to audiobooks. I realize how much miss it now that I have to stay home since we not working because of the coronavirus.
Truck drivers don't have to quarantine
Sparky Pluggs I mean he said he’s a car carrier so with everything shut down. They don’t really need him
@@jacobrice9596 so do something else, essential packages, food???
This is easy compared to driving in the Middle East as a truck driver lol... but great job driver!! Keep up the videos my friend
"I don't know I think there's an accident or something" no that's just traffic on the Bruckner lol
Right - you can’t get by any of these highways without crawling
Oh man That traffic is deadly!
That's the cross Bronx g
Wow!!! You had my heat pumping. Nice job 👍🏻
"This guy clearly lives here" After the guy cuts through 2 lines of traffic. Lmao.
Pretty much lol cause that’s how everyone there drives
Trucks are not allowed on Lower level of George Washington Bridge so you MUST cut to the left there to take Upper Level.
Remeber that if you come here. I've had to guide several drivers through alternate route because they missed that Upper Level entry. Stay safe out there.
@@otrookie I was thinking about being a truck driver still on the fence though. Definitely would need a trainer like you. Take care.
You're a better man than I am I've been driving for 18 years and I never want to go to New York City
man i feel your pain. i heard the stories of NYC and the areas around it. had a new manager at my company try to get me to go up there. i told him not going to happen. made every threat in the book to me. i told him i know the hell that goes on up there and i told the company way before i even got hired on the NYC and the areas around it are off limits to me. he didnt like that very much... but here i am. never gone to NYC. i drove through there once when the covid thing was at its peek and traffic wasnt that bad but still. fuck that place to the max. NEVER WILL I GO THERE. you are a better man then me for going up there. they couldnt pay or threaten me enough to make me go.
@ 8:28, Bro, you got NY hustled right there. I'm from NYC and drove straight trucks there for 9 years. Let me explain: Homie approaching you saw 2 things: 1. Out of state plates, and 2. You're white. He knew right away you wasn't from NY and prolly a bit naive to the NYC jungle. He knew you knew damn well you could make that underpath. I'm sure the height sign was right on it for YOU to see. I sat at lights before and watch cats like him walk right pass my truck (with NY Tags and DOT NY address on door) right to a white dude in a Semi asking for money. All good tho, you live and you learn! Great channel. P.S. When you come to NY, best to drive in and out during the late-night, day time is a nightmare.
Wouldn't give him a penny. He spotted a steering wheel holder right away
Worst congestion I've ever seen. Love your vids, mate. From South Africa.
Good video. Never grab for your wallet in front of someone. If you don't have loose change just say you have nothing.
Give him a Hardee's coupon....😬
That’s sweaty palms and adrenaline rush season there 😂😂😂
One thing I've learned about the cross bronx expressway is get in the far left lane as soon as possible. That heavy merge from the right just before the george washinton bridge right where that car hauler was broken down is a real bitch.
Once you get near the deegan or Jerome ave you're not supposed to be in it but other trucks run it. Crossing paths with a bear in a bad mood might pinch ya for it
Wow!!! Thank you for this video. I am a native New Yorker and could not imagine driving a truck anywhere through the 5-boroughs. Crazy dude, but amazing content.
Man I bet once you were finally out of New York city limits, it must've been a blessing. Love your Freightliner btw bro.🤙 My grandpa's favorite truck right there.
I was born and raised there and i been driving in nyc for 23 yrs accident free 3 million miles

we found the super trucker
@@levitateme Took the words out of my mouth lol there's always that guy
bro thats my hood in hunts point in the bronx lol ...when you was going up hunts point av and your gps said wrong way...its because no trucks is suppose to head up that hunts point street..thats why that car was double parked and u couldnt get by ..and instead of making that sharp right onto the highway on the cross bronx to the gwb...you should have made the left under the brucner ..it would have took u straight to the gwb and would have got u there in 13min...never take the cross bronx its a death trap 3 hours of traffic for nothing
Facts! Major deegan cross bronx the bqe, belt parkway, LIE have to be the worst in nyc
I feel this video deep within my heart. I feel awful for this driver and the shit he experienced this day. Good luck bro!
Not a trucker - Thank you for all your hard work and effort
I have driven I 95 through the Bronx and I don’t like the thought of getting on a surface street. Good driving, buddy. Stay safe.
I'd love to drive a tractor-trailer every once in a while, but Damn I couldnt handle full time. I've driven them before, people are dipshits and lose all sense of rational thought the second they see a big truck. Props to you for making it through this mess!
Its Not for everyone .... I've been driving TA and TriDrives For 22Yrs . Never Had A Wreck bent a bumper thats about it .
That’s the famous “double parking”. I grew up in that crap hole, got out in my mid 20’s and have never looked back.
I always jumped at the chance to deliver in the city. My company gives us hazard pay to do it. I've had my pro star with a 258 wheelbase and a 48 ft spread axle in all 5 boroughs. People are surprisingly considerate when it comes to a truck.
Because they're scared you'll crush their beamer.
I know your Not talking about NYC, There is no such Friggin' thing as consideration, oh no not is the Shit Hole!
Loved the turn around at the second delivery. Great turnaround. Great spin. Working hard for the 💰
Nice video man. This will be a good time capsule for freight life in the early 20's haha
I refuse every load going to New York City!!!! 😂😂😂
I’m about to do the same thing Better yet I’m about to quit
The whole state.
Driving in the rotten apple is called "controlled chaos". good luck.
I drove through Queens, Flushing. The Bronx, and Brooklyn when I was with US Xpress. It was definitely a challenge.
Great video, love the point of view footage showing the dash, the nose of the truck ,traffic ahead and your actions ( steering wheel movements/ your head movements to check your mirrors ) . NYC road infrastructure is truly comparable to a third world country.
Thanks for this POV. Enjoyed the video. Hey buddy I think you spent more time in the parking lot getting to the dock, than you did getting to GWB, just messing. Much respect and drive safe driver!
This really activates my driving anxiety..
I use to move over size loads through the city at night, going through Harlem we use to blow all the traffic lights, I use to have people jumping on and off the trailer and using it like a bus. That’s normal traffic on the Major Degnan by yankee stadium
Those 3 miles before the bridge are the worse no matter what time of day it seems, I've seen 3 different people begging for money in that same spot I feel they each do an 8 hour shift. As always good job.
Edit: It feels they do work on the bridge all year long but never fill up the craters I guess the bridge only make enough for minimal repairs🤨
Nice video man! Was impressive to see you driving and to see other sides from NY.
I live in New York and it's hard enough driving with a car. Great job
Hate heavy traffic like that. I'd rather stay in the desert 🏜
I've never understood why some big cities don't have big wharehouses set up outside the city limits for the big trucks, then have little trucks distribute the loads...sounds too easy huh?/
Property value is expensive and most of the land is already zoned. Outside the city in NYC is Westchester county, literally one of the most expensive places in the US for property, or Long Island which isn't much cheaper. Plus nearly every spot of land there is zoned and established, there isn't a lot of new construction in these places. So you'd be looking at like a couple hundred million dollar warehouse for what? Just to make some truckers job a touch easier? Not worth it. This guy just needs to learn how to drive.
@@therappingconservative2438 who tf are you to say he needs to learn how to drive. Stfu.
@@therappingconservative2438 oh well, you keep getting loads in late all the time lol, that’s why trucking is a long lost job

If you think NYC is bad try driving down town Los Angeles during rush hour 😡😡😡😡. I moved 20 miles in three hours😱
@@captainlarrynosleepfishing5350 at least it's navigable though even in traffic. The problem we have here is that tons of our roads and bridges weren't designed for larger trucks and we definitely don't have the best signage for trucks either. I can't tell you how many times I've found trucks in a sticky situation just because they're on narrow streets or trucks that ended up with the can opener experience hitting a bridge, because we have few warnings ahead of time, it's mostly "surprise! Bridge! Also it's only 9 feet tall good luck!"
Never been there don't plan going. Glad hear you wise up. Heard very bad experience's from other drivers. That and Atlanta bypass 90% of our missing people are said to be still going around that circle.
I don’t find 285 that bad
The bypass in atlanta is a cakewalk compared to some places like NYC and I hated LA also.

Been driving for 3 years I know thats not that long, first year as a rookie I did Cali to NY,NJ,PA. Started doing shorter runs Ca to Midwest or Ca to AZ I never ever will run East nor will I in the future
You are fantastic driver. What a relief to get on the interstate. I would need a year at least of on-board training to get be able to get that monster to that cabinet distributers dock!
I know the feeling I drove this everyday, I stay away from the cross Bronx use the Bruckner to get to the bridge
A real Bronxite the Cross Bronx is the worst.
“Im in fricking New York” 😂
Who or Why do people want to deal with this mess on a regular basis ? Only GOD knows and he “ain’t” talking. 😬 👍
What's up otrookie watch out sometimes people might have a gun who knows people are crazy these days nice video btw
My son was driving in Chicago years ago when he stopped at rail road crossing when passenger door flew open and a guy had a gun pointed at him, took all the cash he had. Dangerous places drivers have to go, thanks to all drivers. I've driven in n.y. also, stressful.
I thought I had it bad delivering a load in Newark! Well done, man.
A long nose pete driving through bronx, my god...hats off to you for maneuvering and staying calm
