    Thelwall Bridge is always the pits for delays. Driving to my brother's at Woolston, I would come off the M56, onto M6, and over Thelwall. I always hated this part. Going home, I'd go back via Warburton Bridge, and to M60 that way. When you mentioned going on M62, my thoughts were to come off at A57, head through Birchwood, and follow for the M62 that way. That's where my other brother lives🤣

    As a fellow American, I can't wrap my mind around that British people drink coffee and a lot of it. Americans on average drink around 400 million cups per day which translates to roughly 146 billion cups per year. That's last year count. Many people say this BUT IT IS THE TRUTH: YOU ARE THE BEST TRUCKER ON UA-cam WITHOUT A SHADOW OF DOUBT, DARREN!!!!!!!!!!

    Just started to watch your vlogs mate ,really enjoyable to watch ,a question for you mate have you xrove the new motors with no mirrors , when reversing do you get better vision with the side monotors when reversing blindside

    • @Life_of_Darren
      @Life_of_Darren  Місяць тому

      Yes I have mate and I will be honest I hate them 🙈 it’s harder to judge the distance than the mirrors and it’s easier to cut the corners when your not used to them too, after a few days I think you will get used to them but you can see a little better on the blind reverse

    Knutsford the worst services. If you on a break and fuel busy then you can't get out
    And the toilet always dirty
    Also I rather drive on m25 then m6 round Birmingham. Traffic always mad busy 😒

    You make class 2 look light work. Class 1 much harder. Especially tramping. You would be a good coach, to help raw recruits into the industry
