Trucking in North America vs around the world

One more reason to have the trailer close to the cab.....

 

I look at fancy things like autos, synchronized manuals, stability control, traction control etc as a way to lower the bar so to speak. Look around here, we've got people driving trucks with the intelligence level of a gorilla these days. Despite all these fancy gadget doing all the work, they still can't be arsed to look in the mirror while making a turn in a truckstop and tearing off hoods and fenders.

 

No.

 

Oxbow,first mistake by that driver was gearselection.
Far to high a gear.


second,i deduce he loaded as short as possible at the front.
Making the front very heavy(maybe even overloaded)

Combine both actions by that "driver" and you end up with a mess.

 

You select gears in an automatic?

First mistake was trying to turn around there.

We don't know who loaded the trailer.

 

stau as usual

 

Wasn't part of deal when buying Berger trailers, that you can haul Redbull for them?

I know that one of Austrain made trailers have (or had) this deal.

 

Wiki about gerhard berger:
Between 2006 and 2008 Berger owned 50% of the Scuderia Toro Rosso Formula One team. In 2008 Red Bull became the 100% owner of Toro Rosso having bought back the 50% stake it sold to Berger two years before.[1]

 

Any AMT will select a gear for running roads meaning it will start in 3th or 4th gear.
For slow moves you downshift it.
Having tools to make your life easier does NOT mean switching off your brain.
