Blind side semi trailer back up Scania R580 V8
I have been driving trucks since the age of 25, back in 2008, starting with a little 4 tonne removal pantech.
Since then I have acquired a HC licence in 2011 in order to drive truck and single trailer combos.
This video was recorded in early 2012 after months of practising blind side back ups, I felt comfortable enough to record myself achieving this manoeuvre smoothly.
This was a daily delivery and pick up at Steritech , located on Widermere Road, Wetherill Park in Sydney, Australia.
I still work for DHL doing local and some regional deliveries and pick ups for their Import and Exports services for both airfreight and sea freight.
