Or never hold corners so you get lost in the bush for hours driving down roads that haven't been travelled on in months.

hold corners?
-
Good Stuff Fishhauler. You earned it. Way to go.fishhauler Thanks this.

Doesn't sound too bad but I'll keep everyone posted once I'm out there. I'm naturally a good driver although I have yet to drive a big rig. With good training and a good supervisor/ mentor, I think I'll be okay. I'd rather drive slower and not make any mistakes than to drive faster and screw up. Can't wait to start working
-
In a convoy it's required to hold every corner so the next guy behind you knows where to turn. Especially for someone like me who doesn't know those logging roads.
-
It aint that hard to read directions lol.....
-
in most convoys the only person with directions is the leader. some guys can't even listen to em properly. simple things like follow the truck in front of you
-
Yup. Usually the supervisor is the leader and we all follow.
-
It would be easy to get lost, so easy to miss a turn
but with the low cost of the technology compared to the high cost of getting lost or stuck, or ending up on bridge that wasn't designed for a rig that the bigger companies don't use GPS displays and preload the routes.
i off road in jeeps and dirt bikes and it even if there is no map you can still follow a track. -
Glad i never had to drive like that.... Sure its nice to follow someone but i want to make sure i have my own directions
