Nice Mullet !

Do they sell these in truckstops? The Blindside mirror i mean not the mullet :smiley:

And he only looked in his left mirror once, 17 squashed hedgehogs and a courier van under the wheel.

Much simpler in that case to spin it round and go in on your own side.

FAIL.

What a to-do over nothing. :unamused: Any professional driver would’ve driven past the trailers done a 180 and good-sided it in.

Bah. How did you post that so quick? Wasn’t there a few mins ago. :angry:

looks good if you haven’t got that option though, I’d try it (if I can suss a way of making one for free) :blush:

Well even if not, look at 0:30 in the video - he’s got at least his truck length over to his left, so why didn’t he drive in, spin it 90 degrees to the left and then reverse in a straight line instead of making work for himself. Stupid American’s. Thick as [zb] the lot of them.

Lol, maybe the idea was to show the mirror Thingy off but you have got a point :wink:

Yup :wink:

When your reversing tight blindside at what angle dose even the wide angled mirror lose sight of the back of trailer? I heard somewhere here that using your electric mirror controls is a good tip.

Small mirror goes very tight, but i’d always spin it where possible and do it where i can see!

Cheers for that info and advice. I just gotta stop worrying about tying to blindside in and just spin it around
