      Hi!
      Yes, some days are like this. Other days are a lot less busy. Every port takes their turn! 😅
      Please watch my video about "Long line to get in the port."
      I am so happy you watched the video!😊

    LA ports driver!!! Another great video, thanks. I try to tell the office this is the type professional NEEDED to recover containers on a daily. You can only lead the horse.😂

      Yup. They'll never listen to us. They always think we are just a dumb driver.

    Same chaos situation is also happening in Europe at the Belgium and Netherlands ports... It's crazy busy

    This is not a daily thing, but it's happening often, and every port takes their turn!

      😅 I am not sure which part you are referring to, however, Professional drivers prioritize defensive driving to prevent accidents, while others recklessly endanger themselves and others with their aggressive driving. These inconsiderate drivers are just bullies of the road.😊

    Are the container cranes robotic or is there a person in each one?

    • @PortsOfLosAngeles
      @PortsOfLosAngeles  2 місяці тому

      Actually these smaller, single container, cranes are self-driving. 🙂

      @PortsOfLosAngeles thanks. That is what I meant. Super interesting.

    • @PortsOfLosAngeles
      @PortsOfLosAngeles  2 місяці тому

      Ports, LBCT and TraPac have automated cranes, and I understand that an operator is needed for the final mounting moment.

    If you dont mind me asking whats the hourly for a twic card holder ?

    • @PortsOfLosAngeles
      @PortsOfLosAngeles  2 місяці тому

      It's an average of $30 with no overtimepay. Different companies will have overtime or pay extra, per container moved. Night shift went to $35 once, but not anymore. Sometimes a company offers [about] $26 per hour plus over time. I am used to working 10 to 12 hours per day, and the paychecks work pretty well.😁

    • @bobbobrown
      @bobbobrown 2 місяці тому +1

      @@PortsOfLosAngeles how many runs do you make per day? I heard wait times can be up to 6 hours? Is that true

    • @PortsOfLosAngeles
      @PortsOfLosAngeles  2 місяці тому

      I do not have a dedicated route. Every day is different.
      When I was working at night, we would average 2 round trips per day, and yes, I have done 6, or 7 hours with one container move. However, at this moment, ports are slow, and those delays are not very common.
      Right now, it is possible to make 3 or 4 round trips to the ports and have a container each way.

    Being a container hauler seems absolutely infuriating.

    • @PortsOfLosAngeles
      @PortsOfLosAngeles  2 місяці тому +1

      Yes, it can be. However, as an employee driver, I believe this is a lot easier than driving O.T.R. and I did my share of O.T.R.

    • @PortsOfLosAngeles
      @PortsOfLosAngeles  2 місяці тому +1

      I guess it's your personal perspective. I also had my infuriating days O.T.R.

    Why do you container haulers literally camp on the left lane of the 2 right lanes going 53 MPH? Move over to the very right lane. Always causing traffic congenstions, inpeding traffic.

    • @Angry_70
      @Angry_70 2 місяці тому +1

      CMVs are governed at certain speeds.

    • @PortsOfLosAngeles
      @PortsOfLosAngeles  2 місяці тому +1

      I agree with you!
      Sometimes, you just can't see past that truck, and there could be another slower vehicle. Sometimes, drivers are just an asshole person.

      @Angry_70 I know, my truck is governed at 65MPH. If you're going to drive below the speed limit, drive on the exit lane. There are plenty of other rigs driving 60 plus mph in CA wanting to use the lane you're camping in.
