I've always found Japanese infrastructure and roads incredibly fascinating, and I really found it interesting to hear your perspective on it, and just to see some in general. I already get stressed out driving a car through cities here in Germany, I can't begin to imagine how incredibly difficult it is to maneuver a truck through a Japanese city. Massive respect to you and all the truck drivers out there, you guys keep our world running!
Man Ive only been driving for a little less than a year, and anytime I drive anywhere new I get so nervous that I will take a wrong turn somewhere or mess something up haha. Cant imagine driving a truck through something so complicated
Nice footage! I love seeing the POV of people from around the world just doing their everyday, regular jobs. For them it must feel so mundane and repetitive but for us, it's like a new experience. It also shows that even though the background or culture may change, the same things happen everywhere. We're all living this one life on this one planet with the cards we were dealt at birth.
the insane protective import taxes will ensure that americans can continue to enjoy their two brands that constantly screw over their drivers. Peters built, and .. uh.. no idea what the other was :) Preaching survival of the fittest capitalism, but they will not go toe to toe with european tech if they can help it.
03:40 The turning signal is only installed at right hand side which following JIS or Japanese Industrial Standard. So if the vehicle manufactured under ISO, the turning signal will installed at the left hand side even it is right-steered vehicle.
It's logical, when you drive on the right side of the road, so in most ISO countries, the driver is on the left side of the car so in order to shift gear in a turn you need the right hand on the shift stick and the left hand activating the blinkers while turning the wheel.
Australia is another country that does this and i believe for the same reason and a majority of the cars that are made in aus were never exported to left hand drive countries
The turn signal sound was the reason, why is Scania my main truck in ETS2. Yeah silly, but other trucks sounds got on my nerves fast. Big sound, i love it :)
Greetings, Swede here, Scania is built here in Sweden, and the one and only other Scania factory is in Brazil. As a Swede, I am proud to see Scania so far away from Europe, I am also proud to know that Scania now exists in North America, as a Mexican company bought a few Scania Trucks back in 2020 (If I remember correctly) EDIT: Scania V8 is the most common used Truck in Sweden, and probably all of Europe.
Sorry Sir but that´s not correct. In europa you´ve two factorys outside from sweden, one in Zwolle (NL) and one in Angers (F). For central europe the most trucks are come from the factory in Zwolle.
@@nordlys6 I just checked, and yeah, you’re right. However, it seems like there more factories than even that, other factories are: St. Petersburg, Johannesburg, Słupsk, Lahti, and Tucuman-Argentina
As a child of Swaragee scouts, settled in "bearlands", i feel ashamed to see the country of my roots going down the digital route, jumping towards the quick buck and endless recycling in the name of waste. I'm really hoping, some of you guys are keeping their traditional ways of making engines, food and love, because what's coming to _all of us,_ wouldn't be an easy ride for a generation of phonetappers. May the star shine on the rest of thy wise ones, and help them to find their way, Sie Ra.
As a European, I really don't like Sweden because of its unfair socialist authoritarian system and the mentality of the people, but I have to admit that Scania and Volvo make really good trucks/cars and I like them.
Many European spec vehicles have indicators on the left because these manufacturers produce vehicles for left hand drive market. Because they produce more left hand drive cars, they would not want additional cost of converting indicators to right hand drive. There is no international law that dictates that indicators must be on the left. UK used to have cars with indicators in the right, especially Japanese cars. But because UK being in Europe, all cars just have indicators on the left now. I prefer on the right
yeah it's annoying because when you downshift into a turn, you have to take your hand off of the shifter it's not as big of an issue now with automatics, but still an annoyance regardless.
What's funny with that is a front loader my company had the, the boss was driving it to town and he hit the indicator...but it was the gear change lever lol. For some reason there was no system in place to prevent REVERSE to be engaged during drive (D). It got costy none the less haha. Mind you this was a new machine barely a year and bought recenly. The indicator was on the right
I have driven Japanese cars in the US (lhd) and in a Southeast Asia country (rhd). Almost all the Japanese cars I know have the turn signal indicators on the door side in both countries. I guess they choose to spend the extra cost converting, which is nice.
I used to have a proper Mini that did, also a 1991 Toyota Corolla (loved that thing, wish I'd done a resto, but it was worthless at the time, also when we took the spare wheel out there was an alarming amount of nothing underneath it).
I remember this little anecdote from an old timer I used to work with. Turn signal stalks are always located in a place for the free hand - left hand in LHD, right hand in RHD - that doesn't have to operate the gear shift in a standard car. Almost all new cars in Canada are autos so I'd think there's not much truth to that nowadays. But for continental European manufacturers, cost savings is the big reason to not accomodate RHD markets. New vehicles that were made in Japan then imported to & sold in Canada (and the US too, I'd imagine), like a Toyota 4runner or a Subaru Forester, will have the turn signal stalk appropriately installed on the left hand side.
It's also been standardised to make it less confusing for drivers. Turn signal on the left, windshield wipers on the right, irrespective of whether the steering wheel is on the left hand side or the right hand side. This is pretty much what is being used the world over - except for Japan. IMO this makes it easier for people to drive rental cars while travelling. You don't have to think about using the other hand to signal. You can focus on driving on the other side of the road. Japanese cars in the UK and Ireland follow the European norm and have the turn signal on the left. I found this very helpful while driving in Ireland. Having the turn signal on the left and the shifter on the left never caused an issue for me. Not operating the windshield wipers while trying to signal did help, however.
@@markusmayer7956 Australian built cars like the Falcon had the indicators on the right. So did older British cars before standardization with the rest of Europe was a thing. I've never found it a big deal really whether they are on the right or left.
Hey,greetings from Hungary.You got a new subscriber😅Can not wait for more content from you cause I like Japan and like trucking and very much like our Polish brothers aswell.Good luck on those narrow roads.😏
Hello my friend! Thank you very much. More content will be coming for sure. I have often been going to Hungary when driving in Europe! Lengyel, magyar - két jó barát!
Im glad that even truckers prefer the countryside then going through the city, especially in it and not on the highway like that U turn. Even with cars that small it can get pretty narrow and confusing
The first versions of Scania's 'automatic' gearbox used a clutch to start off from a standstill and once moving it was 'automatic'. Later versions didn't have a clutch pedal. I am assuming this truck has a clutch pedal for very heavy starting loads. of course its not an automatic - its a manual gearbox controlled by an ECU and pneumatic valves.
Also wenn ich mir mal die Straßen anschaue…….. Gott sind die sauber….. nichts liegt irgendwo an den Seiten. Du kannst ja fast von der Fahrbahn essen….. mega….. ganz großes Lob 😊
Well I'm so excited much Japanese life and good manners to everybody.... Yow bro You have my subscriber and likes .... Have nice day..... Zanzibar,Tanzania 🎉
Hello, now you have a new viewer from Germany. I always wanted to go to Japan by land and then by ferry, that was a big dream of mine. Now I'll have to do it by plane, which is a shame. But one day I have to go to Japan, I just find it very fascinating. You can also buy european cars in Japan that are right-hand drive, but many people don't do that. One of the reasons is that if you want to sell them back to Europe, it's very difficult with a right-hand drive vehicle. And the same slogans all over the world. The ones from there drive so badly 🤣
funny enough ive got exactly same problem here sir.. Ive been switching wipers instead of indicators in our ISUZU trooper back then:) greetings from Ireland.:)
LHD designed vehicles have the switch on the left side of the column, RHD designed vehicles have the switch on the right hand side of the column. LHD designed vehicles that are built in RHD for RHD countries still use the LHD steering column with the switch on the left.
Hello from South Africa 🇿🇦. Its on the left because most have are right handed so its best to keep your strong hand on the steering wheel than your weaker hand.
Everyone in Osaka seems less serious than in Tokyo. I'm glad since I'll be less nervous trying to use what Japanese I've learned when I need to talk to people :)
I agree with you that the indicator should be on the side of the driver's door. Japanese cars in Europe have it on the left as well, so I think SCANIA should have done better research before making it this way.
Indeed, driving through Osaka is different to the rest of Japan. The driving style is more aggressive and you've really got to keep your wits about you, I do exactly as you do on the Tokyo Metropolitan Highway （首都高) and just keep going instead of getting off in some unfamiliar place and trying to go back in the direction I want. Especially when I'm towing my trailer or caravan. Always better to stay on the highway. You've already found out, but the smaller the car, the more room they want on the road. There must be some unwritten rule that kei-car drivers have to drive in the centre of every road.
I can try to explain quickly why European cars/ trucks have the indicator stalk on the left side. it is because they are designed as left hand drive cars and so the most ergonomic design is to have the indicator stalk used by the opposite hand of the shifter hand. since the European cars are converted to right hand drive or otherwise know as the less popular markets, they essentially "cheap out" and don't redesign the ignition column to support right hand drive indicator controls. where-as initially designed right hand drive cars have the motive to keep the shifter hand free of use to only control the gears. hence why the indicators are on the right side of the steering wheel. if you can imagine a right hand drive car mirrored from the centre it will imitate a left hand drive car, such as Mercedes with the indicator closes to the drivers side door.
The blinker stocks on non-domestic-japanese cars are on the left because usually the steering wheel is on the left too. apparently car manufacturers like putting the blinker stocks on the driver's side. Maybe they dont change it on exports to save money?
I drove a Toyota Corolla in Australia and it had signal on left side. Then I switcvhed to an MG and that one had signal on right side. I cleared a lot of windshield on that one instead of signaling, was lucky not to cause an accident.
Crab Truck desu! Omedetou! Kurabbu Tsurakku oki desu ne! That's what my daughter would say. She liked big trucks. I can drive my VW with 1 hand because the 'winker' is on the left. I've thought about that, and wondered if they did that for left handed people like me but I always conclude that Nah, VW is just convenient.
Scania V8 before hitting the road: Boss: *_"Okay Truck-kun No. 7818, your mission is to find a Teenage Boy out there to be the Next Hero of Isekai World"_* Truck-kun 7818: *_"But sir, I thought it's the Fat NEET Guy"_* Boss: *_"Change of plans, we've been requested to send younger heroes to defeat the Demon Lord !"_* Truck-kun 7818: *_"Aye aye sir !"_*
Shout out to the mechanic who immediately knew what youtube would like about the truck. "Big sound" is exactly why I clicked
The last V8 in a European truck, I love this brand for keeping this line of engines alive in their trucks, I love it´s sound and it´s power
