I got the chance to go home for the night before heading back into the yard for a run out to Inverell now im at home for the weekend chilling! thank you guys so much for all the support and comments and emails all of it is seen and appreciated by us for sure! let go for a drive! #trucking #k200 #kenworth #trucklife #australia #cummins #cabover #roadtrain #vlog #brisbane #sydney #inverell #coffsharbour #pinecreek #weighbridge #travel #travelvlog #travelling #travelblogger #traveller #traveldiaries

    Great episode, just so you know, when your moving there’s a lot of static and crackle in the audio . Once your stopped it’s fine. Also with the camera in the pass seat, I suggest you swivel it a bit to the left, so we see less of your bunk and more out the windscreen. 👍 cheers

    Well done dude. You have nailed it with this one mate, you had a bit of everything in it. Good camera angles, lovin the pov camera it picks up everything mirrors, dash, view, and uhf chitchat. Love the cometary makes you feel like we are there with you. 20 years ago when I was driving in Sydney i drove the pacific a lot, your trip in the day reminded me why i drove it at night. Not sure if your going to the Brisbane truck show but you would be doing a lot of us who can’t go a favour if you took the camera along with you. Keep on trucking brother

    Another good as bakery in Warwick to can't remember the name of it but monster pies and bloody good sandwiches. Also, great mix-up of the cam angles. I'm wondering if you could try to get it more on a 45. It gets you from the side and little of the front view if that makes sense?
    Also, I wonder if you could get away talking in video using your Bluetooth head set? I get their guidelines and rules, but I feel talking as you are recording is no different and still as less distracting. Maybe I'm wrong

      It's an infra red laser type deal that checks where your eyes are pointed. In the trucks I drove with them , there is a seat shaker and noise alarm attached so if you close your eyes for too long or it thinks your falling asleep it sets the whole lot off .. scares the crap out of you . Supposed to be a safety feature but I hated them because ours used to go off for no reason ( well I thought so lol) Funny story , the first truck I drove with one of these, I punched the machine off it's stand when it went off for what I considered no reason .. Oh the thing has a video / live monitoring system too and the boss can connect to it at any time and watch you while your driving. Like I said I hated them..
