    I am starting this tread to provide a central place to post videos for various topics. The first one I am posting is a general backing video produced by First Fleet. It is a good overall view on backing. There are many others but this is being place here by me as an example of what should be posted in this thread. If you have made one or have viewed a video of something that should be shared with others, post it here. Thanks.

    This one I posted recently on a thread about recovering after missing a gear. Covers lots of scenarios, which is why it's 24 and a half minutes long.

    Now this video is just an excellent use of music. The song for those of you without a good education is the 1812 overture. It tells the story of Napoleon's battle outside of Moscow in guess what, 1812. Enjoy.

    This video features a Werner Truck that has made a mistake by turning onto a street and really should have either found a different approach or made the turn from the lane going the wrong direction. He was smart enough to stop before he really messed up. There is a good citizen who helps him but notice the Green Car which pulls up and is nearly hit.

    Great idea, old fart. I have a few dashcam videos I'd like to post but I'll probably have to get Bullhaulerswife's help. Again.

    These are two trucks making the same right hand turn. One takes a minute and one takes 8 minutes. Me, I am much more aggressive then either of the drivers. I would have pulled all the way to the left and let all the cars get out of my way. How would you have done it?
