    You faced a lot of really difficult and tight situations in every video you've uploaded. And we've seen you get better and more relaxed dealing with these situations. The experience you've got from this last job of all those tight roads and tight spaces will always stand to you and be great experience for your future as a trucker. So if you ever are in a tight spot again you'll have the experience to deal with it 💪🏼 congrats on the new job mate its well deserved 😊

    Quick helpful note for people who have to drive Renault trucks like you’ve had to. To change from kph to mph press the menu button on the steering wheel then scroll down to units and select mph. I had no clue either till someone showed me at work. Just trying to spread the knowledge.
