Too fast driver

what an idiot

 

Only hurst I know of is a 4 speed gm put in the olds cutlass in the 60s you mean hearse? Seriously what he did in the videos isn't that hard or that dangerous so he went 80 with nobody around him with a few flurries and he backed into a dock.

 

Speed limits are only a suggestion.

 

Who is the guy doing the driving and talking? I've watched that guys channel and that isn't him talking, he has an accent and is older. I do agree not a good idea to film it and put it up on youtube. Trainer James (another youtube trucker) got fired for something he posted.

 

I saw the video where trainer James got fired. What do these guys expect? They are working a camera while driving and filming themselves doing other stupid things. I'm all for trucking videos. These guys are producing a television show while they are rolling down the road with 80,000#. Some guys are smart about it. They do commentary when the truck is stopped. And only use their dash camera without touching it when moving. But even then that could become an issue for these guys. If you do happen to mess up now everyone in the world knows you have a dash cam. It could bite you in the as#.

I agree with the fireing of trainer james. Even though I watched his videos and enjoyed some parts of them. Your #1 concern should be about safety.
Not what you will film for the day. The time it takes you to turn The camera around and focus it could be the moment that a minivan with a cute soccer mom and a load of kids pulls out in front of you. I just got in an accident and I was paying full attention when it happened. But it happened so fast that I could not react fast enough. If I was adjusting a camera( probably what the lady that cut me off was doing) it would have been a lot worse.

The interesting part was trainer James was complaining about the inattention of a driver on a accident video a few weeks back. He was saying that the driver should have seen the truck that pulled into his lane to pass a snow plow. Two weeks later he doesn't pay attention and runs a stop sign......be careful out there.

 

And back on the topic, this driver in this video is pretty stupid. Hopefully he does keep filming his dumb moves. That way maybe someone will see them and get him off the road. I watched another of his videos and it looked like he was doing 80 in back of another truck doing 80 in almost whiteout conditions. That's how these big pileups start.

 

Yea you're right Rizob. I find the videos oddly entertaining but some of them they probably shouldn't be filming.
