Lol Oh shit that looks like my Truck!! J/P Central gave me a crap 2012 Prostar, need to work for free via lease to get a 386. Anyways, its a shame we ( being Central) have some drivers that shouldnt be driving, gives all of us a bad name. But at least we're not SWIFT lol
You really felt the need to post this on youtube and cry about it? It's YOUR responsibility to be safe, sure everyone is supposed to be safe but not everyone is perfect like YOU! About everyday somone like you, yapping, making a video or playing on thier phone not payin att cuts me off or tries to switch lanes while im right next to them on my mororcycle! I'm constantly scanning the area looking for hazards, if I didn't I'd be dead. Quit bitching about others and worry more about yourself!
As you're crying about this Central swaying into your lane you're driving in the left lane needlessly while talking on the phone, video recording and further in the video making un neccesary lane changes. Fix your own issues before talking trash about sending a video in to get someone in trouble.
@ollloVolllo 1) I am in the CENTER lane, To pass the guy....Dur Duh Dur...2) It's Called Bluetooth Technology...You should try it! 3) It's a Dash cam connected to my laptop..... Geez...You think I'm rolling down the road with a movie cam sittin on my shoulder or somthing? 4) I didn't send a video to get anyone in trouble, Hell, I didn't even callhis company. I put the video up so folks could see the FINE product of the modern truck driving schools of America!
@mlyons72 1) 1:41 into the video is when you begin an approach in this guy, you were easily 100 yards behind him with no visable traffic on your right. You can claim all day and night that you were there to pass all you want, personaly I think you're full of it. 2) bluetooth, earphones or whatever else you claim ... It's still a distraction. 3) based on your previous actions I wouldn't be surprised. 4) ahhhhh the dude's rear swings into your path and it's the schools fualt ?
@ollloVolllo BAHAHA!! @1:41 is where he almost hit me!! and you think I'm 100 yards Behind him?!? You do realize 100 yards is the length of a FOOTBALL field? Are you perhaps speaking of 0:41? even then I'm only about 120 feet behind him! You can easily Judge it by the Car beside him at 0:41...Previous actions? what previous actions do you speak of? As far as schools fault, Yeah, anybody with a heartbeat can pass thru one of them, That is a problem!
@ollloVolllo Now as far as Bluetooth headsets being a distraction, You can CLAIM drinking a cup of coffee, listening to the radio, smoking a cigarette, etc etc so on and so on can be a distraction. Let me ask YOU know, Do you NOT do such things while driving? Are the only human alive who can say that? WOW!! Seriously, stop while your ahead......Your putting severe ignorance on display by your rebuttales.... But it is fun to read! :)
@elgranbejuco Thanks man, someone at least noticed That! LOL.... I use a Bluetooth headset, Its better than even talkin on the C.B., The C.B. takes one hand to operate, Bluetooth does not!
First off dumb fuck every driver has tail swing ...he only went in your lane a few inch. Second off video taping going down the road then posting it to YouTube brillant you don't think d.o.t watches YouTube ...... Finally just cause you drive a truck that does 55 downhill in a wind storm means your perfect get over yourself get a big boys truck and stop being a crying ass bitch
@boojam1985007 Ok Ok.....I know most of you guys have had to go through trucking school and then get "Trained" by some other trucking school "Graduate" that has 6 months more Experience than you But Geez man, at least get your terminology correct! Tail swing is the distance from the rear axle to the end of the trailer and it only affects backing and making turns....It dosnt move independently. It varies depending on your Bridge settings, I know thats a little much for you to understand...
@boojam1985007 But it gives you a starting point! Now as far as the "Few inches" he traveled over into my lane, I am not sure if you have ever actually meassured the width of a truck tire but there are aprox. 11" wide sidewall to sidewall, Plus about 5 inch gap between the tires, So now we have 11+11+5= 27" See how easy that is!! now that breaks down(Stay with me here) to 2' 3" Both his DRIVE tires were in my lane, so if you use your imagination,you can figure out how far his trailer was over
@boojam1985007 As far as DOT watching Youtube,I hope they do!Maybe they can get drivers like this Central driver off the road!Now,For my truck being a 55mph downhill racer, I'll tell ya what,When YOU Grow UP and get your OWN truck, Look me up! I Drive a 03' pete, all Orange with a Green and white stripe down the side,3 door headache rack, pulling an all aluminum Reitenour Faltbed trailer.I'll GLADLY run you pick slip for pinkslip ANY day of the WEEK! Heck Just email me I'll meet ya somewhere!
whaaaaaaaaa! (I'm sure every driver that reads this comment will agree, lol!) why were you not in the left lane to start with anyway? You should be in the left lane if there is nobody there (especially going uphill out of albequerque)
I've never seen a trucker...........for any company who hasn't done this at some point to me. I go in tomorrow for training and then i'll get my turn too!
@jessop0joe True enough my friend, It's just aggrivating when the truck someone is about to hit is Your property and your livlyhood! Trucks are NOT Cheap, at least Good ones are not. But this one will be paid off come december so I'm in GOOD shape!
If I remember correctly, I think this is I-40EB. I had to climb that hill when I was in training with Werner. My stupid trainer needed to get his damn truck fixed and never did which made driving that truck especially on steep grades extremely difficult. But I lived. Nice vid
Interesting you didn't seem to notice the Central driver drifting toward the lane stripes before you were next to him. You might have avoided the stress.
@w9mudflap It does appear that way in the Video, I have a 387 Pete, which from this vantage point looks remarkably like a Cab Over. I'm not near as Close as it looks.
yes and no.. if the W9 is old enough and still registered.. a owner op can give the truck up if he is past his lease end date.. and the company will use the truck as a company truck.. i know personally
Wow, that Central Truck almost got ya... think he wanted a kiss. lol. I hate Central, they fired me, when I was all about safety! Central needs to go away! I mean, out of the industry! Well, keep up the safe driving driver, and keep on keepin on.
If you were all about safety they would've treated you with pats on the back like all trucking companies, sounds like you are covering up your own mistakes lol that company has one of the largest accounts with produce in the country so they must be doin somethin right ? ! dumb ass
Makes me glad I retired.
