Now THIS is some backing skill

Dude's got skills and Texas-size cajones!

 

Why are you all so impressed? This is just the final test at Uncle Bubba's Appalachian Mountain Lumber Mill-Bait Shop-Liquor Store and Truck Driving Academy.

 

Not to take anything away from the guy, but it is a truck & trailer configuration & I'm wondering if he has a window in the right rear corner of the cab.

 

It's a truck and trailer configuration that is double-articulated. And he's doing this on a narrow dirt road with a sheer cliff behind him. Even if he has a window on his right rear corner, his load is not transparent, neither is the trailer he winds up parallel with that is attached to the rear of his truck. I'd like to see any one of us do that with just a straight truck...then see what we'd have to say about doing it with a trailer too.

 

I feel like the sound of vuvuzela's should have been going off during that video.

 

from what i ve seen and my experience they dont most of the side and the back is windowless

 

actually, if you had seen what I HAVE SEEN at some of the road tests i have to go to.............

that WOULD HAVE BEEN what you would have seen...........!!!!!!

it'll never stop amazing you how some students can get mucked up real fast on test day.

 

WOW,
That is impressive Now I wish I had Video of the Old Dominion driver who was pulling the Triples in Ohio on Sunday who Backed them up around the Horse shoe and into a spot so he could get out of the Spot he was in DUE TO the fact Some newbie Pulled in on each side and the triples were blocked, But this OD driver backed out and around a horse shoe. Impressed the hell out of me and not much does anymore.
The guy in the Video Has done that many times before that is apparent, Many Narrow roads in South America force Truck drivers to be Drivers and not steering wheel holders, Props to the guy in the Video.
