- Hello Ladies & Gentlemen and as always, thank you for watching!! I hope my viewers are enjoying the new 4K videos!!! Yes, I said and AWESOME Swift driver. The driver followed her GPS and failed to turn around in a now, water-filled field after a lot of heavy rains. However, after Ethan and I use our Peterbilt 389X with a Miller Industries Century 1150R rotator towing and recovery unit to winch her out of the field and onto the road, the driver has to back up (reverse) with a truck and a loaded, 53' long van trailer, in the dark, around curves, over an incline, for over one mile or 1.6 kilometers!!!! And she does it like a PRO!!! I know Swift has a bad reputation for getting into some "difficult" situations, but you must remember that they are one of the largest trucking companies in the U.S., so people are going to see more of their trucks. Anyway, this driver was amazing, both with her attitude and her skill. Yes, she made a misjudgement when she tried to turn around in the field. We ALL make mistakes. I know I have. But she proved herself to me when she backed that combination up more than a mile and only had to pull forward once. That was impressive. Please be kind in your comments. Like I said, we all make mistakes. Try to see the positive side of the driver in this video, as I did. I hope you all enjoy this video!!! Thanks for watching and God bless!!!

Again, a very special thank you to all my viewers, family, and friends who having taken the time to show their support. May God bless and protect you all!!!

SWIFT… She. Was. Incredibly. Flipping. Talented. Stuff happens, not a matter of IF but when, a driver gets stuck. She showed her true skills after she got stuck.
As a professional truck driver of over 30 years I can say this. Every company has a few drivers that are pay check seakers Most are really good but it only takes one bad person to give a company a bad name. I’ve seen a lot of them, Swift included but also seen some excellent Swift drivers too! Lady Swift driver I give you 👍👍in a really tough spot and being stressed to start with. Hold your head high. Thanks Ron and Ethen for being so kind, gentle and professional 👍👍
I really like that they were very kind to her. That is why I follow this channel and enjoy watching his work. Driver needs to find a different Line of work
@@dustinlyth7989 The driver will be fine.
I agreed, people do not realize after swift bought out us carriers they by far became the biggest trucking company in the States,I have driven over 30 years as well,just under 3 million miles,And I salute her she did a great job,She would have been fine if that ground was dry,I live between Ron and Memphis,If that ground is dry it's about like concrete lol,but if it's wet your in trouble!!
I agree with you by the stats, the bigger is the fleet, the greater the likelihood of accidents and the worse the media visibility is, it only takes one person to stain a corporate image when some shit happens ...So I don't believe Swift is the worst transportation company in the industry. Whatever the logo on the door, the more skilled/over confident the drivers can be, the most serious the accident can be.... My belive.
I understand what you're saying, I think the problem with Swift is the same as here in Canada with Bison, they are so desperate to find drivers they hire everyone that can hold on to a steering wheel and 99% have no clue what it actually is they are moving down the road and that's scary as hell
BTW, for those of you who are not truck drivers: Keep in mind, we don't have backup lights on our trailers and it's about 65' from the driver to the back of the trailer. She was backing on a pitch black road with the lights from her trailer hazard lights. As far as I'm concerned, this was a HUGE WIN for her. She likely did little to no damage to the truck. She incurred a tow bill, but hey I bet Swift has those every day from messed up emissions systems. She learned a huge lesson without damaging the equipment or anyone getting hurt.
About getting stuck: We go in all kinds of places we have never been before and it is especially hard to get the rig turned around on a pitch black night in the middle of nowhere. Incorrect GPS or not, it's EASY to miss one turn and end up on a road that you're not supposed to be on with no way to turn around.
Yep. Just another day for Swift's "paper pushers." (probably all done on computer, now.) Brief report from the driver, get Ron's bill, perhaps some questioning to make sure everything matches and cut a check. CDB.
Yes it's very easy to find your self up shit creek
Driver Leader & Company Safety Team issue her a few "Company Safety Points," and then she is out of the next Depot.
I'm surprised Ron accepted Swift's call. Every time I ended up towing them, it was a whole ordeal for my dispatcher because Swift does this bullshit where they call EVERYONE in a given area, tries to lowball each and every last one of them, and then ends up playing blind darts to decide which quote they're going to accept
@@LavenderSystem69 *Bonehead Truckers* ring a bell? There one can see worst stuff done by "swing wide its a freaking trailer" . Nope, myself never been a trucker either....
Yet again, Ron , you demonstrate what a great gent you are. No sarcasm, no criticism, no snide remarks. Just doing a professional job with Ethan, successfully rescuing a lady driver in distress. She must have been very frightened, stuck in the mud, in the dark down a small road etc, but MWT came to the rescue!! Without a doubt, Ron, you are a modest and brilliant operator. Thanks for showing It to us . Best Wishes Roy W UK
You know she will always remember this, how calm and helpful you were, especially hanging around to make sure she gets on her way. A AAA situation... awesome as always!
Very impressive to know she backed that far, in the dark without a lot of pulling forward to straighten out her trailer. Also she did a great job keeping her cool throughout the ordeal.
You was so professional as well giving her more encouragement and being so polite. Wish more professionals was as professional as you.
What a courageous lady! That took a lot to back up around a mile in the dark and keep the rig on the road. She should be very proud of her strength and determination to correct her mistake.
Hats off to you sir. I'm a retired truck driver of 47 years and she did an amazing job of backing up, in the dark on a strange road. God Bless you and your crew...
You hit the nail right on the head, Ron. She did so well when you consider how the emotions from getting her unit stuck and having to call out for help, the cost to her company, the ribbing she' going to get, embarrassment, the residual adrenaline, and all the other thoughts and worries going through her head, she kept her cool and backed up about a mile in the dark with only one correction.
I've been in a similar situation at about her age and it was very hard to focus. Kudos to you for how you were supportive and helpful and reassuring as you talked her through the recovery.
Job well done all around.
✞
Ethan reminds me of your dad sometimes. You must be so proud I imagine these jobs you’re working with him remind you of your dad training you.
Her mistake on navigation turned into a learning experience for her. After a night like that, I'm sure she will be staying on the beaten path. The driver also listened to & followed your commands which help lead to a Great Recovery. A muddy Tug of War. Ethan is working hard & learning the trade Ron. Like Father, Like Son. Love them family operations.
So proud of you for all of your respect and kindness. I kept smiling all the while you were helping the lady! Bless all of you!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
That driver was really, really good, backing up a 53 footer as far as she did. I was impressed.
She did outstanding backing a mile. This will be one of her most memorable trucking experiences that will stick with her for a long time even if she leaves trucking. What a way to turn that story around from the night I goofed up in to ... how I learned that I can....53' van, 1 mile back wards in the pitch dark on wet pavement to the turn around, remain calm under pressure.
I hope she doesn't stop driving. She knew she was in trouble and stopped to get help before she made it worse. She backed all the way to the parking lot. We need more drivers like that on the road.
@@excavatoree I agree I'm not a truck driver heck I couldn't of done it with a pickup and trailer that was pretty impressive one heck of a driver right there
You're a good man Ron. I know that the world be a much happier place if there was a lot more people like you. You set a fine example to all.
I've said it before, but I like repeating myself when it's so true. Ron provides a "master's class" in customer relations with many of his videos. One can learn a lot about things that don't involve towing or recovery from Ron and his son.
She did amazing. Thanks for helping her Ron. We need more people like you out there.
A Swifty Swift that can really drive a truck! Great job young lady!
An amazing recovery.
That driver was taught well on how to back. Slow and steady wins the race and she aced it 👍. I'm no trucker, but to do that distance in the dark on a wet road . . .? That is skill. Only one pull forward? Still impressive. I suspect she would be a great teacher for any up and coming drivers in that company.
And kudos to Ethan as he is learning the trade well. Has a great teacher of course. 😁
Magnificent job. She's a credit to the truck driving industry. If all Swift drivers were like her, there wouldn't be any Swift jokes. ;-)
She's done a brilliant job I'm sure a lot of men would have difficulty doing what she did
My dad taught me that if it’s been raining don’t ever think you can trust the ground to support a vehicle!! Awesome job you two!!👍👍♥️♥️🙏🏻🙏🏻🇺🇸
This was good to see there is still humility and folks can be nice to one another. I am sure the driver appreciated the assistance and encouragement Ron.
Wow she sure did a fantastic job backing that rig over a mile in the dark. Swift needs to hear about this for sure!
pretty sure they will know about it when they get the bill
Will they appreciate that they have found an outstanding driver?
Everyone makes a mistake or three in their lifetime, and the young lady made an honest decision to not make hers any worse than it already was, you did a fine job of getting the tractor trailer out with a minimum of damage or fuss great job Mr Ron and Ethan
Ron, my husband and I both enjoy watching your videos. I've followed you for years, but recently my husband sat down and watched with me. My husband drove tow trucks for AAA and is now their fleet mechanic. I find these videos so educational for me as a customer service rep answering calls from members for road service. It has helped me understand what information our drivers need for their calls. Thank you for your kindness, caring towards your customers. Also, thank you to all your staff. Oh and yes, Swift is lucky to have her as one of their drivers!
Hello Ron, great team work to get the lady trucker back on the road. It was impressive for the driver to reverse that distance in the dark, well done to her. Thanks for sharing and stay safe 😷
It is impressive how much you put yourself out to assure the safety of your clients. I'm not sure that would be the normal service from other tow truck drivers. Well done!
Ron, making it look easy as always. I love your attitude towards these and how you work with the clients, they're already having a bad day, and you always do your best to make it better, a winch out and a pick me up at the same time. I try my best to do the same on my service calls. And agreed, props to that driver, knew when to stop before things got worse, and then nailed it backing that far out, not a simple task at even the best of times.
Thank you. I tell all our employees that our job is to help others who are already having a bad day. Our words and actions can make their day even worse or better. If I were in that situation, I would hope that someone would be helpful and kind rather than rude and belittling. Thanks for watching and God bless.
@@RonPratt I love you too big fan of you have an Autism
@@RonPratt okay
@@RonPratt love this! You are a kind spirit.
I have to agree. She is an awesome driver. It's hard enough to drive at night in unfamiliar areas, and when GPS fails..... Hats off to her for her skill and to you for how you handled the situation in getting her safely back on the road. Stay safe, and God bless.
Great job guys! The driver’s smile showed how happy she was to have y’all on the scene.
You and your employees are what people need. You are supportive and kind.
She done an awesome job backing up in the dark, and Ron you are amazing with patience towards her and Ethan is really stepping up on the controls and his job on the scene.Thanks again guys for a great job and video!!
I was pleased to see how the other random motorists were courteous and understanding.
Just a little courtesy goes such a long way.
Another great job Ron Your attitude puts the customer at ease and settles the nerves They feel bad already I know that the customers appreciate you Be careful and stay safe God bless and prayers to you and your crew
Don't often comment, but I just had too. Couldn't agree more. She did an awesome job backing up. Had the ditch not been wet she more than likely would have made the turn. Hats off to her as well for not making things worse. She knew when she was stuck and didn't sink tires into the mud.
It would be nice if all your tows would be this easy. If Swift gives her a hard time, I am sure she won't have a problem finding another driving job. She stayed calm, and I believe your attitude towards her helped as well.
Ron, you are such a wonderful witness of kindness, courtesy and respect for others. Thank you for representing Christ so well.
Ron I'm continuing praying for you and your family and all the employees at Midwest towing and recovery
Ron you were awesome ! She showed how a professional truck diver can drive!
Holy moly! Backing up over a mile!? You go driver! I'm good at backing, but I'd never back (personally) unless I had to over a mile... Let alone in a semi... Kudos to her, and props to you Ron in sticking around for her. Wow... nice stuff...
Channeling her inner Ron! Sometimes you just don't have a choice. (I'd rather not get into those situations, but sometimes you don't know until you're already there.)
I have trouble enough backing my EV into the charging spot.
She was great, Ron. She may be the BEST Swift driver! Stay safe out there!
Hi Family Pratt, You go really the extra mile for the trucker men an women. You are just awesome, thanks for doing this. May the Lord bless you all, and keep you all safe in your jobs. Greetings from Canada Jon and Rina van Beilen/
She misjudged the situation but she didn’t destroy her truck and showed she has skill backing that far down a dark country highway to get to safety. Kudos for a job well done!
Ron I can't say it enough as to how professional an polite you are this Lady definitely had to be stressed to the max an your professionalism an respect to her was what she needed to help her stress level ! I hope if I ever get in a situation that I need a tow truck assistance when pulling my 32 ft camper that someone like you an your crew show up ! But I hope to never need one ! 👍👍 up to that Lady in the SWIFT truck very professional job backing all that way especially in the dark ! Most Respect to you Ron an your crew !
Great video, Ron. You were very helpful and with positive feedback. Always a pleasure seeing helping out a road warrior.
That was some of the best driving I have seen in a very long time! You are absolutely correct about Swift having a bad reputation, but that does not hold to all of them. Ethan is getting much better at handling the controls of the rotator. It won't be long before he is ready to solo.
Thanks for sharing and God bless
That road being WET made it a LOT darker to see at night backing. She did a great job.
God Bless you and your team Ron. Your mind for safety, teamwork and respect for everyone around the Scene is top notch. I can only hope if I am ever in an accident, I pray I get a team like yours to rescue me and the vehicles involved!
Thanks Guys.
Mike M.
She did a fantastic job backing up. I can remember when I driving otr many times the the GPS would send me straight into a field. Nice job Ron you are very professional and encouraging with people. Love your channel and content. May God bless you and your family.
Thanks Ron for all the videos, been watching for some time. Just sitting back watching you, and team members do their job. The swift driver deserives a gold star for backing a 18 wheeler for that distance, most people can't back up ten feet without running into something. Well done to all involved. As alwys be safe, watch your back.
So proud of yall for helping that awesome truck driving lady. She seemed like a sweet heart. Ethan again did a great job with the rotator but hes got a great trainer. I love the way you tell your guys safety first and how you always are watching them and the way you keep your cool. Awesome job Mr. Ron Pratt. Keep up the great videos sir. Much respect.
Good morning! I don't usually comment on your videos but I always hit the thumbs up button. Thank you for your patience and understanding and directions that you gave to the truck driver. I'm sure that meant the world to her. Thank you and your crew for the amazing work/job that you do in all situations. Be blessed and always continue to seek God in all you do!!
I think this is my favorite video. Ron was very encouraging which helped the driver tremendously. I love when I see women driving the big trucks. Kudos to Ron and Ethan. Ron, you are the G.O.A.T.!!!!! Thank you for all you do.
It’s quite a coincidence seeing this after I watched a video between the president of Knight/Swift and MuthaTrucker. In it the president recounted the steps of how they improved their safety program. He also told of how their safety ratings went from the bottom percentile to near the top rated. With their trucks driving nearly four million miles/day I guess that’s why the previous poor record lingers on. With so many of their trucks out there any accidents perpetuate the former reputation. That’s indeed quite the accomplishment backing that far in the dark. Wanted to share this to give their drivers the benefit of the doubt instead of perpetuating old events. Thanks for providing the driver support through it Ron.🙏👍Stay safe out there.
Good video Ron. She did an awesome job backing up that far. She is one of the rare Swift drivers. They need to make her a master driver for them.
She did great! Decades ago when I worked on docks, you could tell an OTR driver from a local driver by how they backed up. A mile is a long ways to go in the dark and no decent lighting.

As always, you are an example for us all, both in your recovery work and in how you treat people. I think that appraisal really lifted her spirits after having to call you out. Thanks for reminding us all again and again how we should treat our fellow people. God bless you and your family and best wishes from Germany!
Good morning and I'm a long time subscriber/viewer. Love your content and professional manner!
As a 36yr. veteran driver/mechanic, I've surely made my fair share of mistakes.
From a driver, Thank-You for your courtesy, manner, praise and professionalism.
From a mechanic, Thank-You for your knowledge of the mechanics of trucks and trailers.
Lastly, as a 2 time Veteran, Thank-You for your civil service and for being, in my classification, a 1st responder.
Thoughts for your "families" safety and future endeavors.
She looked to be a young lady's well and to show that kind of ability and skill set is amazing. I know many drivers who would have been afraid to try this and some who couldn't how made it.with all the help possible. Great job drive.
Lol. I've had to do that same thing in a fully loaded tanker truck. She is a pretty amazing driver!!!! God bless you, Ethan and your families. You are also truly amazing people!!!
Need more drivers like her. GPS is a mixed bag. Can get you in trouble fast.
Love what you do Ron. I feel like I have watched Ethan grow up he is doing great.
She goofed in trying to turn around but I bet GPS was to blame. She stopped when she got stuck and didn't push the envelope and called for help. IMOthe correct thing to do in that situation.
Backing that truck up...she deserves a standing ovation!!
This is a perfect example of kindness paying off in helping one out of a small mess...great job Ron & Ethan!!
Well, I’ve been OTR 25+ years. I’ve made many mistakes over my career. Getting lost is part of the job. People can say what they want and be as mean as they feel appropriate. However, this just speaks of (their) mindset. I still make wrong turns to this day. The only difference between a new and highly experienced driver is how we deal with the situation once we’ve messed up. Each and every mistake I’ve made is a learning experience and I’m more than sure this driver will never make this mistake again. Thank you Ron for being professional. I truly enjoy watching you do what you do and greatly appreciate your demeanor with your customers.
So true. We ALL make mistakes. It seems as though today's society looks to capitalize on others' mistakes. I, like you, hope to learn from my mistakes. And, like you, I believe this young lady will learn from hers. She was extremely calm, polite, and professional. I would be honored to have her on my team. Thanks for watching and God bless.
She did a very good job backing up the rig. Especially with a 53' trailer. We Truck drivers do the best we can. Just some drivers give us good drivers a bad name or a bad wrap. I'm not driving trucks anymore because of health issues. I miss the road. I miss driving. She is one of the best drivers for a female driving a truck I have ever seen. That was awesome what she did. Ron God bless you and your family 🙏🙏 and your business. I have to say that my favorite truck is Tator. Nice truck.
In my 44 years in the transport industry, some of the best drivers I’ve come across have been women.
Women will tell you what the problem is without attempting to do the diagnostics as well, as soon as they think they have a problem they will ur on the side of caution and stop instead of driving there vehicle to destruction.
👍🇺🇸🇬🇧
I have been on both sides of this kind of situation and it really doesn't matter how any driver ends up in a place where they need help , this is a hard lesson for the driver and one she will never forget, so for the ones who think this is funny I say your turn is coming, Ron is the kind of man who is very professional in his job , he can be the person that you can learn from. Have passion for everyone out on the road, perhaps we will in the long run see less of these kind of problems,
Have a great day everyone
When I was a rookie driver I had my GPS moment in Cresco, PA and had to back up quite a distance. I didn't do it as well as she did and I did it in broad daylight. It changed my habits drastically. When I became a trainer I wouldn't let my trainees use a GPS until they demonstrated competence with a paper map and good trip planning. Nowadays on the rare occasion I take a trip I still start my planning with a paper map and a notepad to write down exit numbers and turns.
My Father always said “The person who never made a mistake, never made anything” ain’t that so true.
Thank you for being kind to this (and all) drivers. I have been in this kind of sit when the "help" was not as "helpful". A 53 in the dark is not especially fun nor safe. GOD bless and yes, this lady was doing a great job for sure.
Another Fantastic Video Ron and Crew. And also as you said the driver did a great job. Much respect to her. I know alot of drivers that wouldn't of been able to back up in that fashion.
Great recovery as always. What a superb driver that was, in the Swift. Thanks.
As good as she did backing that rig up, she needs to drive for a better company. That woman is a keeper for sure. Ron, you are always so nice and professional in every situation. God Bless you always!
Kudos to the lady trucker! (All truckers if I’m honest!) I can’t even back very far on Truck Simulator without ending up paying $$$ to the Simulator repair shop!!!
When I was trucking, I saw drivers who couldn't back into a dock without 6 or7 tries and she went a mile in rhe dark. A BIG thumbs up to her.
I've seen a lot of Swift drivers that couldn't drive strait forward and this young lady did what most drivers in general couldn't do.
Great job, Ron! She IS an awesome driver! Swift is lucky to have someone with her mad skills. BTW, how can you see with those weak yellowish headlights? God Bless Ron, and stay safe!
she did a great job backing that far
Patience got me through a situation like that years ago with little to no overturning .
Great job, Ron. Always enjoy watching you work. Such a pro.
Excellent job backing that far. Swift has some good drivers and she's proof of that.
I just started watching your channel and I’ve always had a great respect for you guys but watching you doing your job and the people driving by not caring how fast they go by just drives me crazy. You should take those people and make them stand by the side of the highway for awhile and let them find out what it’s like. You guys are amazing!!
She did do great, better than some men could do.
I won't fault her for her mistake getting stuck, we all make mistakes starting out. I know i made mistakes over 32 years ago, when i first started driving.
One little piece of advice to anyone starting out in the business of driving a truck. A little trick an "old timer" taught me 32 years ago, when backing at night & if it's not lit up, open the drivers side window, take your flashlight & shine it at a downward angle INTO the mirror. Don't shine it straight in, it has to be at a downward angle, so it doesn't blind you.
You will be surprised how much it lights up behind the trailer.
I sometimes had to backup long distances at night when no one was around, i used that trick many many times over the years!
Ron, that lady did fantastic backing that tractor trailer up. That was amazing. As always " Great job Ron and Ethan.
Poor baby! I used to drive parts for a living with a cargo van and sometimes a 21 foot trailer. I've been in quite a few situations myself, so I can imagine how stressed she was! However, I imagine a good deal of her stress was relieved by you and Ethan's gentle treatment of her. Kudos to everybody!!
Kudos to the driver for stopping and calling for help instead of burying her tandems.
The Swift driver passed her reversing part of the exam with flying colours! :) I am also very impressed!
What an awesome female driver for us women! My daddy the truck driver would be proud. She seems like a nice lady too bad she got stuck turning around in that muck. Glad she is safe and back on the road. I live in NW MO near KC and if I am ever down your way and should need a tow, I know who to call. Love to support small businesses. Excellent job Ron and Ethan! Prayers and blessings to you on your daily runs.
Unfamiliar road, at night, loaded, semi, 1 mile in reverse?
Yup. Impressive.
I don't think l could have backed a semi that far in the dark. That lady did good!
Swift is not only the one with a bad reputation there's other companies too. I give her a thumbs up for backing up that far. I tried backing up 3 blocks and had problems.
The driver didn't do when she first got stuck, she didn't gun it and dig it in really good. Again good Friday morning entertainment, thank you.
Some of the best drivers I've ever known are women. I drove for over thirty years. The women drivers were level headed and calm. Backing a 53' box in the dark is not easy. Thumbs up to the driver. :)
Great job of backing! Another reason to not follow GPS explicitly! GPS is great if you already know where you are going and what roads you will need to get to your next stop. Please get a good map to go along with your GPS.
Your not a trucker till you back up over a mile! Great job! A good company will find you and you'll have a successful career.
I realize too that you can see a LOT better than we can on the video-- but STILL- I've done that- and its' a JOB!!! Now I just had one eye removed- no depth perceptiion much- and only straight line of sight for stuff like that... she is GOOD!!! She sounds like a REALLY RARE lady-- don't find many like that out in this world... :) Bless her.
Good job lady Swift girl! You make me proud. Stay safe out there. ❤
Thank you Ron for all you do. And as always, stay safe 🙏
