With such an outdated and archaic road infrastructure in northern BC this is the perfect place to show drivers how to operate safely, good job, this video deserves many more views than it is getting

Gooooood job, guys!!!

[safetyfirstpdt]

@erjamon1 Thanks!! What else would you like to see?

[erjamon1]

@safetyfirstpdt Maybe a backing with a trailer, or how to chaining the wheels.

By the way, beautiful landscapes you have in BC!!

@erjamon1 I will try to get some backing videos done soon. I'm fairly busy training at this time, but will get some as soon as I can!! Chaining I can do soon also!
