- RVcircusExplorer III've seen that video before and it's brutal! You have to feel for the guy...it makes you want to reach into the screen and turn his wheel.
- BB_TXNomadBeen posted here several times. But still entertaining. I have a friend like that.
- johnhicksExplorerMy neighbor tried to back his fifth-wheel into a narrow slot under his shed. He had a couple of helpers and when I saw who they were I rightly decided to avoid that cluster in the making.
The helpers actually weren't bad; the problem was that the neighbor pretty much ignored them.
He must have made a 500-point turn. After about an hour the transmission in his truck puked. And he kept going. More red stuff on the ground, smelling like a tire fire.
I wanted to go help but he would've ignored me too.
Ended up with the fiver half in the shed and the truck on a flatbed hauled away to have the transmission replaced. All because he wouldn't pay any attention to anyone and wouldn't stop and go have a beer. - TrackrigExplorer III wonder if they guy in the video knows someone recorded him and it's on YouTube?
Bill - TvovExplorer IIOdd thing was, he seemed to be able to back the trailer just fine! He just wouldn't back up to the intersection until the end.

I think it's safe to assume just about everything you do, in public, is being recorded, especially if it's not perfect. :E - rockhillmanorExplorerI'm just glad I got all my newbie oops taken care and out of the way BEFORE everyone had iPhones! :B:B

Have seen before, yes should just backed up to start with.
I also drove into a dead end like that on the WSC Campus in Pulmonary, my first choice was to just back out the way I came.
I always like to add this one that a Professional driver.
Why didn't you just back up? - gboppExplorer

That 'professional driver' should change his name and join the French Foreign Legion. :S - VeebyesExplorer IIStuff like that never gets old no matter how many times you watch it. For more entertainment watch some boatramp fails.
