so ur a swift driver ay... lol i have a vid also on the road... knight driver..yup these truck get passed by everyone.. the company turns ur speed down. to like 65 or slower..sucks
great song, and great camera mount .. although it doesn't get real interesting :)
what kind of camera gear are u using for these vids? I'm sure your laptop wasn't mounted to the outside mirror!
and do u guys know of many foreigners driving over there? I'm Australian and am thinking it's time to visit my Auntie in Nevada again.. thought I might try to get some truckin work..? easy hard?
Not real interesting... That's what I was going for. This was a long straight stretch of road, and our trucks are governed at 62MPH, so I just wanted to show getting passed by everyone.
I'm using a "Sony DSC w55" in this one(Digital Still Camera). There is a vertical grab bar on the far left of the cab(for climbing in/out) and I have a tripod (6 inches long)mounted to it, with the camera zoomed in to the fender mounted spot mirror. My newer clips are shot with a "Sony DSC w150"
I don't know a whole lot about coming over to work. I had a good talk on the radio with a Chap who was from England, then Canada, then Here. I guess it can be done.
cadillac escalades are marketed towards idiots. i've noticed that there are many morons who drive those vehicles like they're in a hurry to the next taping of a rap video.
That's a product of the camera setup. In this clip, the top of frame is about a trucklength in front. I think he was in a hurry to get out from in front if the cars. I can't remember if I flashed him in.
Notice the SUV at 2:12...He almost got squashed. This guy tried to pass an SUV and a Big Truck before the Big Truck had gotten back over. He was halfway through the pass(on the right) when the Big Truck started coming back over. FOLKS, DON'T PASS ON THE RIGHT!! Give the Big Truck a few more seconds and he(or she) will likely move out of your way. If you try to rush by on the right, you're going to be just quick enough to get into their Blind Spot!! The Big Truck won't even know you're there!!
at first I thought you were beatboxing :D

fair enough, thanks for the quick reply.
I think I might try Canada for work, might have an easier time getting in there with an Aussie passport (for work).
cheers

Try England, 54mph limiters on most trucks, it stinks, we play follow the leader all day.
