Hi! Yes, some days are like this. Other days are a lot less busy. Every port takes their turn! 😅 Please watch my video about "Long line to get in the port." I am so happy you watched the video!😊
LA ports driver!!! Another great video, thanks. I try to tell the office this is the type professional NEEDED to recover containers on a daily. You can only lead the horse.😂
😅 Thank you! I am so happy you watched the video! I did my time OTR as a new driver, and now it is my personal opinion that this work is a lot easier. 😊
😅 I am not sure which part you are referring to, however, Professional drivers prioritize defensive driving to prevent accidents, while others recklessly endanger themselves and others with their aggressive driving. These inconsiderate drivers are just bullies of the road.😊
It's an average of $30 with no overtimepay. Different companies will have overtime or pay extra, per container moved. Night shift went to $35 once, but not anymore. Sometimes a company offers [about] $26 per hour plus over time. I am used to working 10 to 12 hours per day, and the paychecks work pretty well.😁
I do not have a dedicated route. Every day is different. When I was working at night, we would average 2 round trips per day, and yes, I have done 6, or 7 hours with one container move. However, at this moment, ports are slow, and those delays are not very common. Right now, it is possible to make 3 or 4 round trips to the ports and have a container each way.

I drove the port for years if it's taking you on the average 4 hours to get a can out you're not making no money at all. And you didn't have to get lights fixed get a gen set put on get a flat tire fixed all this s*** adds up to more time. Driving in the ports are for people that really don't want to work. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Why do you container haulers literally camp on the left lane of the 2 right lanes going 53 MPH? Move over to the very right lane. Always causing traffic congenstions, inpeding traffic.
I agree with you! Sometimes, you just can't see past that truck, and there could be another slower vehicle. Sometimes, drivers are just an asshole person.
@Angry_70 I know, my truck is governed at 65MPH. If you're going to drive below the speed limit, drive on the exit lane. There are plenty of other rigs driving 60 plus mph in CA wanting to use the lane you're camping in.
That is just Nuts! The only place there wasnt a line was at the Port A John!
Greetings from Denmark. A big rig driver myself, that is nuts did'nt know how cracy container hauling is. 😱

Yup. They'll never listen to us. They always think we are just a dumb driver.
Same chaos situation is also happening in Europe at the Belgium and Netherlands ports... It's crazy busy
The lines suck, but crazy busy is a good thing. 😁
Wow a whole other level of madness
Nah fr 😂😂😂😂 where is the patience
It's a regular day. 😅
Muy buenos tus videos.saludos desde méxico.
Saludos!!!😃
Everytime i see videos of the port i get ptsd from the covid days dont miss it
🤟😂🤟
Those were the best!
We were so busy!
This is not a daily thing, but it's happening often, and every port takes their turn!
Dam that’s busy as hell and people are saying trucking is slow. I wonder if the railyards here in Chicago are this bad.
Busy but the loads Don't pay nothing. Too😂😂😂😂 much down time you never get paid for. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Port drivers are another breed. Just crazy. I would not like this on a daily bass.

Some days are alot more crowded than other
@jenniferbabros1985 💯 very true!
Controlled chaos.
Yes! 💯
That CLOWN literally skipped in front of you. WITH NO QUESTIONS ASKED. You got PUNKED😂😂😂😂😂

Are the container cranes robotic or is there a person in each one?
Actually these smaller, single container, cranes are self-driving. 🙂
@PortsOfLosAngeles thanks. That is what I meant. Super interesting.
Ports, LBCT and TraPac have automated cranes, and I understand that an operator is needed for the final mounting moment.
If you dont mind me asking whats the hourly for a twic card holder ?

@@PortsOfLosAngeles how many runs do you make per day? I heard wait times can be up to 6 hours? Is that true
I do not have a dedicated route. Every day is different.

music ruins the video

Truck Safe
@@Hulicestavares1727 Thank you so much!😁
Being a container hauler seems absolutely infuriating.
Yes, it can be. However, as an employee driver, I believe this is a lot easier than driving O.T.R. and I did my share of O.T.R.
I guess it's your personal perspective. I also had my infuriating days O.T.R.
I drove the port for years if it's taking you on the average 4 hours to get a can out you're not making no money at all. And you didn't have to get lights fixed get a gen set put on get a flat tire fixed all this s*** adds up to more time. Driving in the ports are for people that really don't want to work. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes, you're right, for drivers getting paid only per trip.
However, good money keeps me here. 🙂

CMVs are governed at certain speeds.
I agree with you!

I’m the container flying by you on the 3rd lane lol. Fuck a govern.
I've seen you! 🤣🤣🤣
