[00:00:11]Let us [cough] look at We're going to do the engine.

[00:00:40][music] Straight drink.

[00:01:18]Yeah.

[00:01:40]Dangerous.

[00:01:42]Danger.

[00:01:58]Peace.

[00:02:13]Yeah.

[00:02:18][laughter] Muru guys. What is mukuru?

[00:02:40]>> Muru guys.

[00:02:46]>> Yeah.

[00:02:54]Yeah.

[00:02:56]2 minutes.

[00:03:04]Yeah.

[00:03:30]trailer.

[00:03:37][laughter] >> [laughter] >> So yelling >> [laughter] >> I'm counted.

[00:04:38]Ladies and gentlemen, Yeah. 48 horsepower.

[00:05:12]Guys, I'm going to leave you with this advice from and all those things. Guys, I hope you will enjoy the show. Yeah.

[00:06:12]Okay guys, but some they just say it's a Messina.

[00:06:23]It's a place between Messina and Rishard.

[00:06:31]We're going to the tunnel. Uh, you can't just go inside here. The light off.

[00:06:53]He just switched this light on now.

[00:06:57]Okay.

[00:07:00]People like to take pictures there, you know, selfies and all these things.

[00:07:46]Yeah, guys.

[00:07:55]bumper to bumper.

[00:07:57]Give him some space.

[00:08:00]I think maybe like this something like 300 400 m. So 500 m is still fine.

[00:08:13]Or if trucking where that truck is too fast for a small car, those guys they want to overtake. At least they should have enough space in between because if now you are driving like this ah then that is unprofessional.

[00:08:45]I'm just trying to check how it shows on the video, guys. Won't be surprised.

[00:09:32]And now you can switch off your lights.

[00:09:35]But if you use the light on, it has got no harm.

[00:10:29]I don't know if you guys can see. We are going there by the mountain there on top where the there's a orange truck or yellow truck.

[00:10:48]So, I'm going to give you some tips here on the mountain, guys.

[00:10:52]Especially when you're coming down loaded with the truck that is loaded coming down. I'll show you.

[00:11:00]I'll just actually explain. I can't demonstrate. I can't show you uh practical.

[00:11:12]You see that truck is going very slow.

[00:11:14]This one is coming very slow because that guy is using a there's a Jacob retata exhaust brake but all those things they work more or less the same thing.

[00:11:28]You understand? Uh the purpose for all those things is this thing to minimize your speed uh without using brakes.

[00:11:41]That is very very important.

[00:11:45]Otherwise, if you just come down the mountain with your brakes, foot brake or trailer brake, you're going to bend the brakes.

[00:11:55]So, you don't go downhill with the brakes. You go with a retarder, Jacob, or exhaust brake, foot brake, or trailer brake.

[00:12:06]It's basically just to show the person behind you. This one will show this one behind that he is slowing down. That's when he will put a little bit of brakes.

[00:12:20]So you lower your gears, you go downhill with um with the manual.

[00:12:28]Normally it's gear number seven eight but you know this new trucks the the the exhaust brake is too strong even let's just say direct gear number eight I will show you sometime when going down uh the your revs should be high should go there around 2021 your revs when you're going downhill, your gear is on manual, you are using your retata or exhaust brake or JCO, your rev count should be on 20, 21, 20 or 21, not 10, because 10 is going to now force you to use your your brakes.

[00:13:19]So, the retarda it's more effective when the revs are high around 20.

[00:13:31]You see this place here? There's too much accident here.

[00:13:36]Too much accident.

[00:13:39]So, you have to take it really, really nice and slow when coming down, even when going up. But just be careful.

[00:13:49]Drive with the defensive driving.

[00:14:16]As he's doing like that, he's trying to to avoid that tree because you see that tree was hanging.

[00:14:23]Maybe that tree will hit your your cap on top or your your iron kit. There's this thing there on top of the trap.

[00:14:32]That thing It's called a rocket or even your trailer can damage that thing. The tree can damage even your trailer.

[00:14:42]So, he's just trying to be extra careful which is defensive driving.

[00:15:03]And if you're going to drive an old truck, let's say maybe see those old Volvos, maybe the 2010 model 20. I know when you're going uphill for a long time, the truck gets loaded and then if you just put a full accelerator, that thing might cause your truck to overheat. Even the new trucks basically in all all the trucks just to be extra careful. You mustn't put full accelerator. If you're driving with the accelerators, not a cruise control. You must take it nice and easy. Maybe a half a half accelerator.

[00:15:43]Not all of it to avoid making the truck to overheat.

[00:16:20]See that one is going slow because that guy is loaded.

[00:16:24]The load is heavy.

[00:16:27]I assume he's also using half clutch.

[00:16:29]Remember to avoid the overheating.

[00:16:33]So me and Drigo we are the trucks are empty. We are not loaded.

[00:16:39]So it's very light. It's very simple also to go uphill.

[00:17:17]I'm getting closer to him because now guys remember we are going uphill rest less risk but if we are going downhill I shouldn't be too close to him that is very dangerous Yes.

[00:18:27]This is a mountain, guys. Always remember when you're coming downhill, your truck is loaded. Always use lower gear.

[00:18:37]Always we don't use guess work here. They do it like professionals. Okay.

[00:18:45]Lower gear. Engage your retarder. The revs now should go high cuz you're going downhill. The truck is is heavy. the retarder it's more effective when the the revs are high but I'm not saying high up to maybe 25 but there around 20 but maximum is 21 on the ref count I don't know if you can see it but that should be something that maybe we can do it some other day that I can show You see that sign there? Lower gear.

[00:19:34]Very important. When it's leg like this, it shows you that it's going downhill.

[00:19:41]So, it's a caution.

[00:19:45]See, now I'm creating safe following distance because we are going downhill.

[00:19:50]Even if it's empty, it's very easy for a truck to go steeper. I don't know how to put it well in English, guys.

[00:19:58]I'm not so good with English, but I will try.

[00:20:02]So, when it's going downhill, the truck is empty, it's easy that it can go slippering, then you can jet knife.

[00:20:10]See?

[00:20:13]So, even the retarda when you're going down, you don't just pull this thing.

[00:20:18]I don't like the bullets of number one maybe number two. You will see it will hold the truck sometimes evenly just number one.

[00:20:36]driving safe following distance and then his truck is showing brake lights because that truck is different uh from Atros the one I'm driving that one show when he he uses his retarder immediately it switch on brake light it's not that he's using uh brakes. No, maybe he's using stage one for recharge, but the brake light will go on Remember guys, when you're driving a truck, this is a sharp cave. You see this? You can't just come with a lot of speed. That time you are loaded. Otherwise, when you come, you find that there's a truck going downhill with gear number one.

[00:21:51]Driving very, very slow. You're going to hit that truck. So, you should just go slow on the mountains. Whether loaded or not loaded, just take it easy.

[00:22:51]See, this is a sharp curve. This one, you should lower your speed.

[00:22:58]Lower your speed. Otherwise, you come, there's a truck going downhill with gear number one.

[00:23:05]You won't be able to break your truck.

[00:23:07]You would bump that truck.

[00:23:10]Then we are dead, guys. You see this sign? It says 2.4. 4 kilome and then it shows that arrow and that you see that drawing there's a sand there that drawing with the dots it's a send it's a it's called a arrest bed so there's a sand there whereby if you get there maybe your truck you have made your truck to fail brakes cuz me I believe all those trucks that failed brakes the driver did it to fail brakes but nonetheless if your truck is failing brakes and then when you get there, you must go to the left side. When you go to the left side, you go straight to that sand. Then it's going to hold your truck because the truck will be running away with you. No more brakes. You bend the brakes. You didn't use lower gear. You didn't use your retarder. You were using high gears, high speed. You are using automatic.

[00:24:29]You are using your brakes up until they burn. Once they bend, they can no longer hold the trunk. Nothing. You've got all brakes.

[00:24:39]And then we're going to bury you. So if your truck is still driving all right, there's no problems, everything is still 100%. You still go to the left hand side.

[00:24:53]The a road like that is at many places.

[00:24:57]You see now it's saying 1 kilome 1.1 kilome.

[00:25:02]Even if you are loaded or you are empty, you're driving a flat deck side of fridge, whatever, you must still take left. But when you take left, you don't go to the sand. The truck is still safe.

[00:25:14]It's not running away with you. Then you go to a stop sign. You stop just like any other stop sign.

[00:25:23]You stop, you observe, you know the rules, then you drive if it's safe to do so.

[00:25:30]600 m now.

[00:25:43]You see showing that stop sign 800 m 5 turn and above that site to the stop sign if it's running away with you you go straight to the arrest I'll show you now see even it's showing here trucks the site See come this side and And and then there's the arrest bed. If the truck is running away with you, you go straight in there.

[00:26:43]You go straight in there and then that sand there or the concrete, it will decrease your speed.

[00:26:53]It's like a emergency landing for for trucks.

[00:26:58]Yeah, I may put it like that. It's like emergency landing. You go in there, you drive your truck in there. That concrete or sand, it will hold the truck, decrease the truck too much. Hopefully, you don't come over here.

[00:27:15]But once you come over here, I I don't know.

[00:27:21]But you don't come here.

[00:27:58]Sir, please right.

[00:29:25]Yeah, guys, I think I'm done with my part.

[00:29:30]So, statego, he says we're going to do it up until here.

[00:29:37]I hope you enjoyed. I hope you learned something. And even if it's one thing, it's better than nothing.

[00:29:47]I hope we have learned something something.

[00:29:52]So, we're going to stop just now.

[00:31:14]So this is guys uh this is uh list chart guys there. This place is chart.

[00:36:22]Yeah. The road.

[00:38:04]Thank you guys. Thank you for watching.

[00:38:06]I hope you have enjoyed. I hope you have learned something. Uh I hope to talk to you soon again.

[00:38:18]There is your gun.
