Really enjoyed this 3 part series. It seems to be really complicated juggling delivery times, pickup times, breaks, allowable driving times, sleeps, etc.. and then filming, narrating and editing videos as well. Plus dealing with the paperwork problems. There is a lot more to being a truckie than just sitting behind the wheel. 👍👍👍 from 🇦🇺.
We take all precautions we can with the equipment we have available unfortunately these people are very persistent & extremely cunning. We’ve heard of rear doors being removed & bolted back on as well as holes being cut in roofs & seals broken & glued back together. Unfortunately if they want to get in they (usually) will 😮. It’s a sad state of affairs really. I have a little trick up my sleeve for the side lockers etc involving cable ties & we always head for secure parking too. Thanks for watching 👍🏽
Really excellent video in the future if the French national railways Société Nationale Chemin du Fer Français has lorry rail in Kent Folkestone you actually loaded your Lorry onto the train then unload off the train at Perpignan for Spain Turin for Italy. The route to Italy used two tunnels from Folkestone Channel Tunnel and then Frejus Tunnel future Mont D'Ambin base tunnel
As usual banging vlog 😮 , just makes me wonder what we did without technology back in the day🤔 . Anyway keep up the good work , keeping an ex trucker happy ,. Chaw for now 🤟
Map on one knee changing gear on a manual one eye on the map another on the road 🤣, Honestly don't know how we managed before Sat Navs they have been such a benefit if used with some intelligence.
@@-DC- Remember it well😂 trying to read the map, change gear, negotiate roundabouts and watch for the cars coming up the inside when you're trying to turn left in the city. 40 years ago now mind you. Ross 🏴🇬🇧

You need better locking points on back end of truck and any storage bins / side lockers
