I am passionate about Australia, I hope one day to visit that wonderful country. I would love to see the road trains up close, they are fantastic! Congratulations for the videos! Greetings from Asuncion, Paraguay!
@@OzOutbackchannel Same my dream is to vitsit Australia somday i have always liked you guys only problem is its very far away from where i live and u have HUGE SPIDERS what i absolutly hate greetings from Finland 💪💪
Nice video. I would have loved to have gone to Australia to drive one of those roadtrains before I retired, but it wasn't in the cards for me. Thank you for sharing. I hope to see more.
My brother in law drove a Grader for about six months out somewhere near Birdsville grading dirt roads. They snapped him up because he was a Mechanic that had worked on heavy machinery. They did not care if he could drive a Grader. They taught him. When he headed out with the Grader for about 6 weeks he towed a Caravan to live in, another trailer with a small 4WD vehicle, a Fuel tanker trailer and another Trailer with spare parts, tools and generator etc. and he always had plenty of water. Not big Trailers like these. He quit after 6 months but enjoyed the experience. Said it helped get his head back in order after a divorce. He said all the big property owners and managers were very good to him. They made sure they looked after the guy grading there roads and invited him to there homesteads etc. For that reason he never got lonely. He always had a satellite phone with him.
No, Australian 1978 ZH Fairlane , on the annual bushbash rally to raise funds for charity, just one of many cars in rally, must be over 20/25 years old (I think) to take part. Participants modify them for run on some very poor back roads tracks , add loud multiple horns, flashing lights, raised suspension etc.
What are the speed limits in those remote areas and how well do the drivers comply? Are there different speed limits for cars and trucks, as there is in much of Europe? Are there a lot of cops around? Just curious.
The trucks are limited to 100 km an hour mostly and the drivers are very good at complying with this. Cars are usually 110 km an hour in remote parts, but that can be higher in parts of the NT. Cops are usually pretty random, they can appear in the middle of nowhere lol!
@@OzOutbackchannel .. Ah, so around 60-65mph, roughly 70mph for cars. I guess that's reasonable considering the distances, road conditions, and so on. However, when I see a long open road, the speedometer on my pickup truck always seems to creep up to about 85-90mph (135 to 145 km/h), but I'm certain that speedometer is wrong. Lol. Thanks for responding.
The trick to driving wide vehicles through tight spots (e.g., narrow bridges or between two other vehicles) is three-fold: 1. Make sure you'll fit. 2. Worry about only one side of the truck. The other side will take care of itself. 3. Hope you got step 1 correct.
Hats off to all Aussie truckers. They sure know how to drive these gigantic monsters on wheels
Nothing but respect for the folks that drive these giant beasts across Australia every day!

Also impressive how even your dirt roads seem to be in better condition than our main roads are here in the UK!
Some of our roads are terrible bone shakers Tony. This road is a shocker!

Old aussie lived in us many years, drove those dirt roads , they are still in better shape than the roads in San Diego,just sayin'
Need to get that fluffy thing for the mike - wind noise sorted.
What’s the max you are permitted to tow? Is tripes the max or can the road train be longer than 3 unit’s?

Шикарная подборка! Спасибо!..
No worries, love to get to your part of the world one day!
Seem to be mostly Kenworths?
Where are the cars?? Only freight traveling sweet 🎂
So I guess that 2 trailers are for trainees, 3 trailers are for normal drivers, and 4 trailers are for elite drivers? ;)
No you can have as many trailers as needed as long as it under 53 metres.
@@user-hi5dd5qh9n thanks,learn something...grt from Belgium
Mantap 👍🏻
Gotta love that clown at 29:30, should be backing it off so he's not showering shit on other vehicles but nope - in too much of a hurry for courtesy.
I believe they are more responsible on the roads than Brazilian drivers!
BRASIL agradece pela VÍDEO

@@OzOutbackchannel hypothetically, without those speed limiters can those trucks still reach 100kph even under maximum load?
تصوير جيد 🌷🇮🇶

I want to be a trucker in Aus, but I'm not gay, so I cant.
Youre just enough of a chance of driving one of these truck as you are aware you are gay yourself
excuse me.. what has gay got to do with it... you dont sound like a prejudist
