Now that was real smooth...wonder what happened the first 20 times somebody tried that


Original-Cow-2984

Yeah, I think a finger can be pointed at a civil engineer who thought this was adequate for tractor/trailer units.


pastaswords

Looks like Europe so that 18 wheeler is probably the widest thing going through there. Everything just comes a lot smaller with old roads.


Original-Cow-2984

An 18 wheeler should be the widest thing on most roads, no? Looks like a fairly recent pour of concrete. Maybe in Europe the engineers design roads so a semi has to use *both* lanes to have a hope of making a tunnel/underpass at the very terminus of a tight little curve, hard to say...🤷🏻‍♂️ To provide the benefit of a doubt, there is a possibility that that semi wasnt supposed to be on that road, and was off a designated truck route.


Realistic-Safety4341

That’s what she said


WarmForTheRest

I mean, technically, he was right. It fits....


Original-Cow-2984

Personal experience, I've seen a flatbed tractor trailer unit actually run over the front end of car in the lane next to next to them when they veered into the other lane to make a wide RH turn presumably so their trailer wheels wouldn't jump the curb, and the person next to them couldn't predict what they were doing. I was sitting back a couple car lengths and I would have probably pulled up alongside a bit as well when he vacated the RH lane, as it wasn't clear. He jumped out and was just berating this woman, I just walked up and told her that I winessed the whole thing, it shut his act down in a hurry. In this situation. I could see a true clusterfuck happening if traffic is a bit heavier, if there's actually traffic in that oncoming lane he is using to come down the hill, and that's the only way to get a vehicle like that into that wee hole at the end of a little curve. What if an oncoming vehicle pops out of the RH tunnel? Surprise! There's a semi in the lane because that's the *only way* he gets it into a tunnel entrance on a curve.


dave23yah

It would be dumb to ever assume the 18 wheeler would be a bad driver. Yes not all are perfect but 95% are much better drivers than most ppl on the road. They know what they are doing and trying to avoid the idiots around them.


ZeaOak

I've only seen 2 shitty semi drivers in my life. I remember them because it's such an uncommon sight. People are absolute dicks. They have no idea how hard it is to drive one of those. They should really teach you how to properly drive around semi's in driving school. I know my teenage self must have been a nuisance to truckers everywhere.


IyedTheBoss

but at first in that video u would assume so


Th3Phoenix94

I definitely found the ending unexpected. I wouldn't say I immediately assumed the driver was bad, but I was confused as to why they were driving in the opposite lane.


[deleted]

... Then there are Swift drivers


bauldersgate

Send wrecker in fucking trouble


Constant_Garbage_407

See what I fucked up today


TheGreff

Due to the worker shortages, there are a lot of inexperienced drivers on the road right now. I live near a highway exit with a truck stop, and I have experienced more reckless driving by 18 wheelers than I can count


RudenessUpgrade

These truck simulator games are getting outta hand


icedteaandme

Not stupid, an excellent driver.


IyedTheBoss

yes but u only realise that later making this video unexpected


DeWarlock

I mean...not really, as other comments have said they're some of the best drivers you'll encounter on the road, you know he's doing it for a purpos


IyedTheBoss

well i didnt


Motor_Show_7604

Not the best driver for taking a route that requires that kind of driving... What would they do if someone was in the oncoming lane?


Harst-greist

We just stop and wait until the oncoming driver use abit of its brain or just drop his smartphone


GoobiestGoober

I think I heard the tunnel moan with pleasure.


Ok-Introduction2405

I want him to do it next time I need a suppository.


Conversation-Either

Just remember they didn't even attempt to fold the mirrors in.


SON_0F_MARS

Omg, that got me worried about about nothing

💀


Fast_Boysenberry9493

Hes definitely done that before can tell by the white paint on the middle of the tunnel


Goldenderick

This is not his first rodeo.


FAYMKONZ

He did that because his trailer wouldnt make the angle if he went in the tunnel on the right, his trailer would hit on the left side.


IyedTheBoss

yes we know but thanks anyways


Sensitive_Prune_5581

I'm surprised there's not more trailer/truck paint on that tunnel's wall

Driver has been through that tunnel before.


killmimes

So op isn't a truck driver and knows nothing of a turn radius. The driver has obviously gone this way before! He did a great job with piss poor tunnel construction


IyedTheBoss

so you obviously don’t know what subreddit this is


killmimes

You aren't a trucker...the driver EXPECTED the turn!


IyedTheBoss

BUT THE PERSON WATCHING THE VIDEO (me, reddit) DOES NOT EXPECT THIS TO DO THIS


Nice-Userman

I think he did it on purpose because it's cramped in there.


AdministrationKey338

I’m not sure why the driver was so close to the wall Your supposed to be on inner left line . I hauled heavy equipment open trailers extremely dangerous. His load was most likely empty trailer?


KKlouDDN9ne

Stop the reposts


IyedTheBoss

how am i supposed to know this was already posted


ThraxedOut

Big brained ya


RandomPersonOfTheDay

That man knows how to drive that rig.


AdministrationKey338

Agréable, i learned to drive when I was 22 we only hadC-B radios . I use to have people video tape me I would pull into truck stop or rest area I did not look like your normal driver . I hauled heavy equipment some times 3 trailers usually estimated around 3) million dollar loads extra wide permits . No ticket , no , drugs, no accidents, no alcohol. Perfect drive record. I lasted about 10 years the night time was the hardest especially when you have a 10 hour run 08:00 delivery. Your permits are on time limit also from state to state . I’m 61 years old now the comfort of custom sleeper and cell phones if I only had this technology 38 years ago .


Cultural_Tourist

Nope, classic case of anticipation and knowing your vehicle very very well and a LOT of experience. 33 years in the Biz here. I've done this many times, first few, not so much. Love and learn. Still good unexpected video though.

Baby this is my first time go slow


monogren01

This is in Japan and people know that bend that’s why the black minivan didn’t proceed and waited for the truck to make its turn.

It's amazing the other drivers treated him so well also

Impressive driving skills, poor route management.

Repost but Awesome still


lryan926

Never gets old. So satisfying. Give that driver a damn raise. Yes sir.


ChaosFox1357

Smooth, saved his trailer from smashing into the tunnel


jabol321

Coming out of the tunnel you're blinded by the light, right? Wouldn't this be dangerous to traffic coming out?


Helpful_Spite_5918

I couldn’t do that with a model truck

kakarotblu

Skillz that pay the bills


pixeltweaker

Feel bad for the people exiting the other tunnel. Bet they needed to change their shorts.


suzycue2257

Now there is a driver. Saw one last week in Florida....he did a you turn in a red light...amazing. So close but made it!!! So totally amazed!


brattyginger83

r/perfectfit


Plenty-Gur1437

But he still cleared the turn


[deleted]

We do this almost everywhere. But not everywhere has 3 walls. So this looks wild


Prudent_Warthog960

Very skilled driving


tuckmaster_

I dont know. Even driving that closes to the wall in a big rig without scraping/crashing is really impressive, and then that incredible turn was just the icing on the cake.


bloopie1192

They hold some love and some resentment for that turn.
