I went down a bad road in a town I didn't know, I knew I was screwed when I got to the end, couldn't turn around and there was just a small country road in front of me, I did the right thing, I called the local non emergency number at there police station, put my hazards on and waited for 6 cop cars, they blocked the road and I straight backed about 1/2 a mile, they waved me off and everbody had a great day and a good laugh, and I kept my job.
Smart man. As the old saying goes, “Slow is smooth and smooth is fast.”
Smart kept your job and yourself out of trouble with the law.
Man we all go through stuff like what you did. Way to go in making the right decision. Much respect
Did the same thing at a bridge that was too low. Luckily the cop pulled up behind me. A good 1/2 mile in reverse, damn!
Been there with a truck and dolly trailer, except it was 2 miles with corners. Fun times, thankfully it was the bosses fault I went the wrong way so he couldn't yell at me.
That car that stopped in the front probably sweating bullets when he realized that truck driver didn’t give a fk about hitting anything
This is gow it all ends champ
😂😂😂😂so true
Definitely this guy is swift material has a lot of potential.
Exactly 🤣🤣🤣Swing wide🤦🏾♂️Wtf he should of swung deep into the hole once them drives went past the pole then blind sided into a dock then pulled off Alley Doc Style 😎🤟🏾Long Car AllStar Driver 🍻🍻😎👌🏾
lol
Stop hating, at least they will hire him after he fuck all that mess up 🤫😂
Maybe swift fired him and he told his next employer that he has experience.
@@charliesmith7615 lmfao! I'd bet money you're right!
That's actually a woman named Sarah. She was on the news about this and said she didn't recall hitting anything and was rude to the lady asking questions. This was her 2nd violation in 2 weeks. Was fired and lost her license. The truck also belongs to her boss.
DOT inspection 1/4 mile ahead.
ALL TRUCKS ENTER.
Now it makes sense comment of the day right there 😂
😂😂😂 fair enough
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
NO SHIT😂😂
That’s good 😂🤣😂🤣
The driver had the whole parking lot to use to his advantage.
Yup he had enough space
I would've pushed the f150 back 20 feet. Lol
He used the whole parking lot though, even occupied spaces
Yep I would've cut right in the front of that truck and turnt around
Yep. He could have flipped a bitch had he used the space in front of that pickup.
Nailed it. A true natural. Definately management material.
Yeah!! Safety manager over at Welfare Express!!!! Yeah with her flip flops on and everything!!!
I feel like this guy was on a forum bragging about how great he is 10 minutes before this.
I know! He's that guy that brags about how there's nothing he can't do in a truck. Tight turns, blindside alley backs, u turns, etc. He's the greatest ever. Just ask him!! Ha ha
he's on skype . . . AS he's turning(wrecking)
I saw the livestream of the driver while this happened saying "watch this sweet turn"
He probably uses the term "steering wheel holder" at least once every 20 minutes.
@@buddylove7497 meh...I'm a steering wheel holder.
To the new truckers out there, don't ever make snap decisions or panic behind the wheel I'll back for 10 miles before attempting a U turn like that. He would have been better off turning down a side street and backing across the intersection to turn around. There's no solid excuse for these damages
I drove flatbeds for years and trying to maneuver a 48 or 53 trailer with a spread axle is a challenge but this was just plain stupid. I drive a 35 ton wrecker now and I often get the pleasure of getting one of these inexperienced wheel holders out of a bind because many of them are clueless.
We joke in the towing and recovery business that GPS stands for Getting People Stuck and Getting People Screwed. These new drivers would blindly drive off of a washed out bridge and into the river following GPS around. If we were sent to pull them out, the first thing out of their mouths would be, "my GPS said..."
These new guys totally have no idea what trip or fuel planning is and if the truck has a manual transmission in it...forget about it...🙄
If anything he has all that empty parking lot on his right side if he wanted to be less kamikaze about it lol
Before you do something get off calculate i dont care who's behind me honking the horn im not doing that to be in a rush.
cliff giordane I don’t think he panicked. It looks to me like he is just a sorry excuse for a driver and didn’t care. Guys like him gives us all a bad name.
Truck driver own that's small Truck Are you that Stupid to believe that the truck driver hit Someone else's Truck
I've always said it.. TRUCKING IS 50% SKILL 50% COMMON SENSE... this guy had neither...
That's a BIG 10-4
True, but the biggest problem with common sense is that it's not very common.
Actually.... to do what he just did....
Da world you must remember common sense is not very common
No such thing as common sense. What makes sense to us may be completely unacceptable on the other side of the world. It's all about the culture you were brought up in that shapes your so called common sense. This may be a recent immigrant from some third world country doing the driving.
One of my co workers in the past bragged about how good of a driver he was and didn’t need any training for his new job. He said he was a better driver than any of us. He got into his truck, drove off of the parking lot, and ran straight into the back of an occupied car.
Oooooooope
That's that over confidence or showing off... That usually doesn't end well.. 🤣
as a truck driver, on my very first trip without instructor I did the same, started backing 90 degree to turn around but I didnt calculate the angle of the truck only the trailer and I reversed into a car... But i learned the lesson and never did anything stupid like that again. People only learn from their mistake, the only person who never makes mistake is the one who does nothing at all.
You made a mistake.
He F'd up.
ROYALLY
Guess you had no business in a big rig.
@@durantrza4856 dude, stfu, stupid super trucker
I’ve been driving truck for 37 years without an accident, 3 million accident free miles. This guy sucks.
GOAL. Too many lazy drivers
It's drivers like this that give good drivers bad names
And their pumping out more everyday.
It's an embarrassment.
Most drivers have less than two years experience
Most are bad drivers
@@jamesjdm how does one get more than 2 years of experience?
And yes, a lot of big carriers are pumping out “drivers” whilst getting trained by a driver with less than a year experience themselves. Shitty drivers. The lack of respect is also a big deal.
I love bad drivers.
Makes me look like the best trucker ever.
34 years driving. Over 3 million safe miles. Retired from driving this past summer. This is a perfect example of why. Drivers like this scare the hell out of me and they're next to you everywhere you go now! Looks like he/she could have safely made it if they had used the open parking in front of the pick up. Still tight but respectful of the people's property! Good Grief Charlie Brown!
Kent Cruse I’ve never ever seen a truck do this. And I’m impressed he pulled it off 😂😂😂
Well said!
Could have moved closer in the empty parking spots to make a wider turn safer. Surprisingly the air lines didn't get ripped off.
I’m the same as you, 33 years. He never should have attempted that turn or at least got out and walked around his vehicle. Looked like he bent the left faring also. Dumbass.
That guy obviously never drove a spread axle before he shouldn't be behind the wheel of a tricycle
Martin, what is a spread axle?
@@Gunrunner4532 look at back tandems; they are spread apart. It is an entirely different animal to maneuver.
@@Trucker_Rich duh. They're not tandems. It's a spread axle trailer. U can't move them
@@Gunrunner4532 if i have to explain what a spread axle is. You wouldn't understand
10'1" between rear axle and front axle on trailer
For years everyone at work told Bill it was time to trade in that old Ford. Then after this Bill finally spoke up and said "Thats why I don't want a new truck".
For anyone that wanted to see how to pass the swift driving test here you go!
Do they actually have a test
@@mikeh2006 They actually do have a test. You'll pass it if you're able to reach the steering wheel.
Besides hitting or pushing the truck, he did one hell of a job turning that 18 wheeler around in such a tight space. That was actually Impressive undoubtedly.
I hope you're being sarcastic. The idea is to never hit anything smh...
@@jamesparsons5864 I know, but I was amazed at him just turning that huge bed around in that tight space. There was no people, and it was an Inspection. He would not have done it under those circumstances. That was dope to me. #ThugLife
He also hit all three dumpsters
He called home after just having an argument with his wife and his brother accidentally answered the phone.
. . . out of breath
So did you still have a good relationship with him??
HahahhahhA. I got a laugh thx.
@@wot1fan885 you are welcome.
Speaking from experience?😂💪
When I got my CDL 30 years ago they used to make us learn to drive a truck , times are changing .
One of the more skilled truck drivers out there on the road today.
If he would've pulled all the way to the right and started his u-turn from the yellow poles I do believe he could've turned around quite easily. Instead, he starts from the right lane. WTF?
Oh shut up
I agree....but more importantly what are you doing with my picture I know how to rock
Not to mention shouldn't have tried it in a kenworth
Yep, assuming there's no obstructions he could've swung it over and used that little bit of shoulder across the street if necessary. Some of these guys don't give themselves enough time to think. He probably passed his customer and was running late but that was careless.
You are absolutely right.
I had a boss when I started driving transfer truck and he would get impatient when I would look for a safe area to turn the rig around....32 years later and NO chargeable accidents and NO moving violations later proved me right
A special breed of trucker there, pure dedication to the lack of any practical understanding of spacial awareness. Well done Sir!
Lol 😆 everyone started moving out the way real quick 🤣
For whatever reason he probably panicked. In certain cases it's just best to stop and evaluate your situation. You can think a whole lot better with a clear mind. I would've never attempted a bonehead maneuver like this. I would've pulled off and googled the satellite images and street views ahead. There's usually a larger parking lot or a side street to get turned around and lastly, you can call for help if necessary. Anything beats property damage.
You got it Sir! Thats my motto never panic stop and think
I agree.... I mean I'm not sure if anything was past the camera, but it's possible he could have slid in front of the truck and banged the turn around from there
Exactly. I once missed my turn into the customer in a very small town. No way I was going to make the turns on any of the side streets. Too many obstacles and too narrow. I looked on Google maps only to realize just down the street was the town's fairgrounds. Huge open parking lot to turn around and get back to the customer. I was absolutely panicked as it was in my first year of driving. Lesson learned. Don't panic, pull over, stop traffic if you have to. Make a plan and execute. Don't Hit Anything!!! Lol
@@floridapatriot9776 I used to use google maps to look at landmarks so I’d know what to look for as I was approaching the destination, car lots, gas station on the right etc.
@@EricFortuneJr. yes sir. I do that now.
It is called “drive by Braille.”
That poor little old Ford, just minding its own business..... But still managed to stand it's ground👍🏼
Drove trucks and charter buses for 40 years. The driver quality standard has been reduced because companies don't want to pay the driver's what they should. Now if you get a CDL your trucking regardless of your skill set. Automatic transmissions are now on tractors to cater to morons who can't shift standard multi speed transmissions. They have to have front and side radar because they don't know how to use there mirrors. They have to have lane departure warning devices cause they don't know how to stay in their lane. I have seen drivers who will take 40 minutes to back to a loading dock because they don't know how to back up a trailer. This video is a prime example of that.
its sad brah same here not so say im a good driver but i can dock blind where ever needed ,but i train and maintain that talent though ,it will always be a challenge
And 40 minutes is only half the time they'll spend blocking a fuel pump.
@Aaron Schumacher yes dear
So has presidential throne.
Aquafishsoup what a miserable piece of shit you are. There's always an asshole like you that can't leave politics out of anything.
One of the most pathetic turn arounds I've ever seen From the width of that street I wold never have even considered it,, unless the side of the building was big enough to back down, but what he did was idiotic.
I think he would have hit something with just the bob tail only ...
it's been awhile since we had a good one of course the classic one goes back to 2011/2012 to the black dude in New Jersey simply do a TH-cam search of truck driver fail at low bridge u-turn USA Truck that's the granddaddy of them all of stupidity
@@syrpitta driver that isn't pissed off will spin a 53' around in that lot and street all day long. I think this dude is pissed at his dispatcher.
These new trucks turn on a dime !
Yeah. There's room to make that turn around without hitting anything or getting into the yard across the street. It would have taken some planning and several times getting out and looking, but there's plenty of room to turn that truck around and not touch a thing. This guy is just a fukn asshole.
He did it! Pure skill and knowing his rig!
This blokes rearranging skills are incredible, he would be the mvp in house flip
That was some piss poor driving
Must'a been a Tenderfoot.
Certainly was, at least he left the little house unscathed!
Just think of this guy at night.
"Some of them truckers can turn on a dime. It takes forty acres to turn my truck around."
No tractor that long is going to turn on a dime. Never should have tried it with a trailer with so many obstructions around. Why he didn't pull up another fifty or sixty feet (the empty area of the parking lot) before starting is beyond me. Could have also pulled into the lot more (wider turn) beforehand.
This guy said “give me forty sticks of dynamite and I’ll blow this thing to....”

@@robinstewart6510 Whoosh...........
Got fired from this and became a trainer at SWIFT
I know exactly where this is. It in Lawrence PA, in front of the volunteer fire station. He missed the turn before this and the first sign that said 11 foot clearance 1 mile ahead. Happens a lot, usually the Cecil Township police come and help the truckers back up, to the turn (that he missed)
Hey Paul I think that is also a no truck road over 10 tons if I remember
Unfortunately there are more and more of these drivers on the road every day.
"How am I driving?" sign on back.
Of course the f-150 was perfectly fine. That was back when ford actually cared about durability. I daily drive my '87 F-250
😂😂😂that ford barely moved
@@milleniumann28 lol yup. If it was a newer one, it'd be destroyed. But that Ford was like, "Can you get out of my personal bubble please?"
next time I need a tractor and dump trailer on my property, I need to remember that approach. much easier than moving 3 vehicles, and making a 16 point turn...
Did you hear something ???? Naaa we all good.... hammer down.... lol
I've been a truck driver for only 6 months now and even I could tell that it wasn't going to work out well. Maybe he did, too, but just didn't care. 🙄
Did you ever try that when your on the phone? That's must have happened! Lol
G.p.s. can get you here but.....
As i watched this i was saying, "set the brakes get out of the truck, walk it off". Frustration and rage is the only thing that can get me to saying fuck it.
Give her a break. She's used to driving a Prius.
Her ... 🤣
And with a split-axle trailer no less!
I was expecting this guy to drive right through the building thus putting the proverbial cherry on top of all this.
Turn around was completed successfully as driver was told to hit that ford p.u. & rearrange those red containers.
That's right, and he done a great job too
Practicing for his NASCAR debut.
@@ronaldjensen8614 didn't think NASCAR had them "R" gears because they kept thinking it meant Race
He should have made use of the empty parking space so as not "rearrange" everything
Can we just talk about how good that Kenworth T600 looked with that beautiful 48ft Skteboard the driver is pulling😻😻😻😻!!
It looked good on the Bennys.
Flawless!
As a truck driver I would like to thank the person that noticed what was happening and stopped to give them room. I would also apologise to them that we have idiots like this driving trucks.
I would also apologize for your spelling of apologize.
@@twelveshepherd9331 he spelt it correctly. It's correct UK English, you know, the real English.
@@NoName-tz5ji an anal.. not a anal
I don't think they were giving him room. Once they saw what was happening they just didn't want to be run over too and stayed the hell out of his way!
And apology for custom fender/door adjustment on the pickup truck.
I know the feeling of missing your turn, then having to drive miles out the way just to turn around. But this is ridiculous.
When you get to a 4 way intersection, tuen left, then back up through the intersection. Then turn left again.
It's that simple. And works on nearly every road. Including county roads. Turning right on a county road is just asking for trouble.
Or if it's a 3 way you can turn left on, turn left, then blind side the trailer. Then drive on.
It's not rocket science. Super simple shit.
He did a perfect 3 point turn with his tractor. How rude of somebody to secretly hook up a trailer without him knowing!
I see most commenters don't realize how tough this turn is to make. If he was up 10-15 feet, he would have missed the truck and missed the red containers and thus executed that maneuver masterfully.
Diver's needed , no experience needed !! WOW !!
Tom Meyer this is exactly what Ruan is doing
I've never been diving .. what's it like?
"Do a legal u-turn as soon as possible."
I'm reminded of the country song, "Chicks Dig It."
🎵 Took out a mailbox; then a fence; then a barn... 🎵
Another happy customer served :)
4 this is the reason people hate us truckers!! In the 20+ yrz of drivn truck,,,, i use to fear 4 wheelrz nda road. Now i fear other truckrs most of all. No skills, an no brains. Our industry is undesirable. Over regulated, pay is not competitive ,highly skilled drivers are bailing out an your left with under skilled an unqualified truckers. You value your family & your life!?!?!? Then stay the hell away from those trux!! Who knows whats behind the wheel!!!!
Yep! I drove for 30 years and retired 11 years ago because it was getting worse. Wouldn't drive a truck today for nothing. Lousy job for the pay and crap you have to put up with. ELDs, never!
Eva Neibel - If people hate truckers - and I don’t think they do, this isn’t why. Because guys like this are still in the minority. No, people are typically just self absorbed, impatient assholes who think trucks are in their way.
Eva Neibel man I bet it’s hard for you to leave the house huh?
+Cya Cali AND New York in 1 day !!? , Who the Hell Has Time to shower?? Lol. My Pop Drove 'Old School' For Decades, Days straight at a clip , 2 logs , etc. He NEVER had a single Preventable Accident on his Record. Every accident he was in, Was caused by some Fukk wad in a 4 Wheeler. Without Truckers , YOU Can't Wipe Your Ass Decently. Keep that in mind , next time you're flapping it off.
I thought i did a pretty good job,,, not my fault things was in my turning space.
@Norbero Fontanez this probably is not the truck driver bud
You did fine Terry. Don't listen to the haters
@@kitty051299 u must be the smartest in your family but that's still nothing to be proud of
I think Terry was being sarcastic while pretending to be a liberal....
( Nothing is ever a libs fault )
We also need to expand the government to have a new gov. program to prevent this from ever happening again.
Pull his licenses. Out of service permanently.
He did pretty good. The description to the video said that the Ford was unscathed. And I don't think he hurt those other things he bumped into on the way out. No harm, no foul. He did better than most Swift drivers.
I’ve been driving for almost 2 months already and literally seeing this guy do this.. makes me feel like a pro at what I’m doing yooo 😂😂😂😂 what was this guy thinking, he should’ve went wider
You gotta give it to him though, I thought there was NO flippin' WAY he was gonna get that thing turned around there, long as it is, and he did it causing only minor damage!
I could do it. Pull ahead of pickup , on LH lane of road, pull off a 90deg u turn, ending up back in same lane other direction
Nothing to see here, just another high school drop out making a U-turn.
This had to be one of those "hold my beer" moments
I’d say a 10/10 for fucking everything up😂😂
35 year driver here i think he missed his turn and got the i dont give a shit going.if he would of done it right he had the room to do a uturn.
Yeah, dude was just pissed off I think.
Sure! There's plenty of room to turn that truck and not hit a damn thing. He just didn't give a good goddamn. I know I could've gotten that thing turned around and not touched a goddamn thing. But I actually give a fuck about keeping my CDL, and all its accompanying records/reports, as clean as a whistle. Makes me more valuable to better companies so I don't have to settle for shit jobs, in shit equipment with shit companies.
He is lucky I'm not the local Sheriff. I see felony hit and run.

Thats a man after my own heart.
Oh man that was a great video! Awesome! 😂🤣
As a rookie driver... I could tell this was a 20 years plus experience driver
Some of those crotchety old bastards have survived purely off luck. I work with a guy that's driven flatbed for 35 years, he constantly undersecures loads and half does everything because "it's never been a fucking problem before" - he's just gotten fucking lucky that he's never been in a big stack up or his load would have killed him.
It's funny because every truck driver on the road is always preaching " I've been out here for 20 fucking years with xxxxxxxx miles and no accidents blah blah blah blah" yet the majority of guys you see at shippers and receivers and truck stops are doing stupid shit like this and parking in the truck stop driveway just to avoid walking or backing into a spot at 1pm when there's still 100+ spots left.... bunch of disrespectful egomaniacs out here
I reckon i did about 10 million SAFE miles over the last 127 years . You see im a SUPER TRUCKER and a company ass licker/ trainer . Im still in my prime .. Hell i could blindside back a 53 fter made of rope into a lot lizards hole ! I talk about what a big sexy badass i am on the CB non stop 24 / 7.

Just reinforces what I've always said, "Just because you have a CDL doesn't mean you should be driving a truck."

Please don't think all drivers are like this..some of us take pride in our job .

Damn, how far back did that back axle travel backwards. Good thing it was a flatbed and not a box. He would of tore up more sh**t

@@jeffhartman7000. Now that's funny
A 53' with the tandems all the way forward, will turn around in that lot and street. You will use the street, yes. But with a proper set up, turn around with not much problems.

Dude he probably doesn't even know he hit anything.
congratulations very good best drivers
Bravo 👏, you did it
Not a good idea to hit that tight of a u-turn with that kind of trailer.
You don't have a clue how spread axles work, do you?
It's called a dump axle.
Somebody needs a new career
I'm sure this guy is thinking...nailed it👍😉
Did better than 90% of the truckers i see every day
A great percentage of truckers in the U.S. dont speak english.
Wrong
No habla
Wrong and wrong

@@loudmusickillsthepain648 where is my detention, bitch?
Yet they talk about swift smh...
How can you tell he's not a swift driver?
He probably got fired from SWIFT. I don’t even drive truck that much and I wouldn’t have even thought of making a u-turn right there
Because the truck doesn't say swift !
This is what we call "a swift move"
Swift would be totally rearranging someone's new Pete at the truck stop. Doh!
I can't believe it got it turned around in such a tight spot. Must be a real pro
Good Job!
