@ElroyHarvey DID BETER THAN I CUD DO

Leave the poor guy alone, he obviously wants overtime : ))
-
whats the point in having shitty little single axle trailers like that and a truck designed to pull much bigger and heavier loads its a huge waste why not just by a rigid it would make things alot easier and save on diesel
-
4 in line trailers like that with the axle right at the back are a twat to reverse.
-
The only mistake the driver made, was to lean out of the door for a look while reversing. That is a Test Failure as well as dangerous. Otherwise, he got the job done.

@ElroyHarvey how do you help him? by taking him out of the fucking cab!!!!
-
Blind siding an urban trailer when there's no need to!!!.....serves him right,why risk it was he trying to show off??
-
bloke who filmed this is a arsehole bet he was a bully at school as well the knob
-
Been there, done that!

gotta feel for guy, I think all us truckers have been there at some stage, some more than others no matter how experienced we are. My worst, after about 7 years of all sorts of trailers I got a 3 leg rear axle steer 40ft, could I put that on the bay.... could I fook, took about 6 attempts!
It makes me so angry watching these videos here on youtube taking the piss out of new drivers. We all have to start somewhere.
Ive never had the pleasure of pulling a single axle trailer yet but i know there harder to reverse.
If your not a driver then who are you to comment love to see you have a go and if you are then you shoukd know better, you where a new driver once too yourself.

@ElroyHarvey Who said he was new driver? The driver in the video has been driving years. Don't post if you don't know your talking about.

@rpmmatt Theres loads of idiots on here posting videos of new drivers soi it was an understandable assumption to make.
Whether he was a new driver or not where do you get off posting a video of a driver struggling, i stand by the comment and your still an ass, rather than standing there filming why not go help him?

@ElroyHarvey Look, if you know anything about reversing artics, you will see by looking at the start of the video he was starting from a completely ridiculous angle and trying to blindside it when there was no need. He got it all wrong from the start because he was trying to show off by reversing from where he was and he came unstuck making himself look a tit, so thats he he was getting laughed at. He had loads of experience so I knew he would get himself out the hole he dug with out my help.
