The Lorryist
Приєднався 30 кві 2014
Hello, thanks for visiting my channel. I'm a UK truck driver. I'm a tramper (what is called OTR in North America), which means I basically live in the truck when I'm working.
Entering the block at the Port of Felixstowe, UK
Mainly here so I can add it to a substack article.

Migrant Tries to Get to Britain on my Lorry, Calais, December 2021
Переглядів 139Рік тому
Transmarck near Calais, France. On my way home for Christmas after a delivery and collection in France. I was shooting a short video for friends and family, then this happened... I've deliberately not edited or commented on the incident, I just want to show it for what it is.

A Good Old Rant About COP26
Переглядів 392 роки тому
So, a cartel of "World Leaders" gathered in Glasgow to tell us to not live like they do. Or even a tiny bit like they do. How can we not say anything about this hypocrisy, this injustice? #COP26 #buildbackbetter EDIT: Since making this video I've been reading more and my thoughts about leadership have matured. One of the driving forces behind "leaderships" creating "threats" is democracy. A mon...
Driverless Trucks Won't Change the Supply Chain, 3D Printing Will

Cross Channel Illegal Immigration, Truck Driver's Perspective

There were lots of young men trying to jump on trucks at Calais yesterday. This problem has been going on for years, decades even. Surely it's not beyond the wit of our governments to come up with solutions for this? Wait... come to think of it, it probably is... #immigration #uk #trucking #europe #englishchannel
Truck Driver Explains the Shortages
Переглядів 1142 роки тому
Almost called this "My Role in the Supply Chain Disruption", but none of this is my fault! The lockdowns of 2020 were always going to have a longer-term effect than most people realised. And things will probably get worse before they get better. Unless the system breaks, and then all bets are off. #supplychain #shortages #logistics #foodshortages #supplychaincrisis
A Good Old Rant About the Truck Driver Shortage
Переглядів 2342 роки тому
How is any of this difficult? Why would truck drivers put up with things that other workers wouldn't? If truck drivers are treated by everyone as everyone would like to be treated, then they wouldn't leave the job, and more people would enter it. It's not rocket science. #truckdrivershortage #truckershortage #supplychain
What I Learned Listening to Financial Experts

It's going down people, and not in a good way. I listen to stuff that's difficult to understand and not aimed at me. Why? Because other things are either lies, dumb, or distractions. And usually all three. #financialcrisis #nwo
The Truck Driver Shortage: A Symptom of a Much Bigger Problem
Переглядів 812 роки тому
I'm a UK truck driver, and can see the truck driver shortage close-up. I also listen to audiobooks and podcasts, all day, every day. So I've learned something about politics, economics, and how the World really works. And in this video I talk about part of what I can see. Please link and share. #trucking #truckershortage #laborshortage #greatreset

Driving a Large Truck in London

Some people get nervous driving a car in London, so driving a full sized articulated lorry (semi truck) is that much more difficult. Here's how we do it safely.

Your comments and pictures was covering the controls
Useless video. None the wiser?
I can't do anything about your lack of wisdom, sorry.
Why put your mug over the buttons, you clown
Because it's a free country and I'll do what the fuck I want.
It's not a robot, there's someone in the overhead crane
"The facility uses 60 automated stacking cranes, 30 dedicated to land-side operations and 30 dedicated to ship-side operations." en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Gateway
No there isn’t anyone in there!
Hello my friend hope you well
The crane is automatic until the containers get to within 6inches above the trailer it is then taken over by a PERSON IN AN OFFICE using camera's on the four corners of the cradle, So not fully automatic (SORRY)
They create the problems and sell us the solution while convincing us it's for our own good.
Reminds me of when they did a treated lumber presentation in my architecture course highlighting how it saves trees and saves the planet and when I asked about the impact of the chemicals in the river system, they can go more into detail after the presentation, at which point they brushed me off :s
Excellent, thank you!
If "the system" fails, it means that the banking monetary network is failing to move value through the economy. Why? Because there is no transaction settlement anymore, only IOUs of IOUs and so on. Now, if you own Bitcoin, gold or any real asset you will be able to transact whatever happens to the banking system i.e. owning a Bitcoin backed Visa debit card would allow you to go to the store even if the banking system is down, Visa has it's own network and Bitcoin too. That doesn't mean there will be a lot of goods and services to buy though.
You're my new truck version of Uneducated Economist. Keep up the videos!

I found your channel on one of George Gammon’s recent videos. I share your sentiments. Thank you for your videos which I have started to watch and share. I do my little bit daily sharing my thoughts, other people’s thoughts and videos and I also share the things I’ve started to do adapt and reaper for the future. Sometimes I feel like I’m being laughed at for being like Noah building his ark for the flood. There’s so much to learn, and as you say, government s don’t want you to know. Good luck. Keep doing these videos. Thank you.
Found you video the same way as the other. Really enjoyed your perspectives and information. Thanks

Great video, you bring some good points, saw your super chat comment on the Rebel Capitalist.
No Truck driver shortage But absolutely driver low wages
Despite conveniences and tech advancements, the standard of living has been going further down the toilet for most. If that's not bad enough, if the world owes 290 trillion, what happens when the Aliens want their money back ;)
Not a bad description of bankers, "the aliens"....
Love the way you look at things and these really are frightening times for anyone actually paying attention.
It's simple. If you want effective employees that will stick around, treat them like you would want to be treated. Greed these days is on a whole new level though.
Loved the analogy as well.
Lots of great info here. I came from George's stream :)
Glad you liked it. I don't know it all, but it's good to contribute what I can.
I spent many hours there when the system regularly went tits up, maybe i can have some social time with the driver next door, what you dont speak english :)
This was very useful. Now I know what I did wrong. Thanks Graham.
Glad it helped!
Good effort well done that man, not the easiest thing to explain easier to do
How long does it take to find your container ? I imagine it is tracking you gps as you get close ? I’d be interested to know if it takes hours or ?
Your trucking company books you in. There's a terminal screen at the gates that you use through the driver's window (no need to get out). You wave your pass-card at the sensor, and enter the booking number. The terminal prints a slip with two slot numbers, one for your inbound container, the other for the outbound. If there are a lot of trucks it can all take an hour or so, but generally it's very efficient. I've been in and out in 20 minutes.
That’s bizarre & so cool ! I’m in the US snd just watched a drone UK show that shows this area from above - this explained a lot ! Amazing technology!!
Thank you so much! Cheers from brazil
You're welcome!
Perfect
Hi my friend, I have a problem SIEMENS VDO was good, but when I disconnected the power socket from him, in order to change the speed sensor, but after the connection is no longer working, and the car is in a bad situation. How I return it works like the former or what you advise me to do, thank you
Great video. Very helpful thanks for your efforts.
Very good thank you. Only done one manual entry on my first day Friday, I confirmed I wanted to make a manual entry, but nobody told me there was a time limit on it & by the time I got my paperwork out my bag to tell me how to do it, It was too late to change it & I could not go back. i start nights tonight Sunday second shift ever & I will be my second time attempting a manual entry. Thank you for the video, I feel confident that I can get it right tonight......
Several companies have developed electric or electric/hydrogen powered trucks. Use them.
Love it 😂😂😂 They made my week really different 🤨
Great video keep it up
Very good 😁
