Drivers of the Highest Skill? Driving a Road Train!

Now, we know that there are people out there who really struggle to navigate with a compact car. While it seems like those people are in the minority, they exist! Now, Let’s step it up one notch to driving around a trailer. If you’ve spent any amount of time using a trailer to move around something from point A to point B, you know that this task can also be pretty challenging for a beginner. For most of us, it takes a while to learn exactly how to move our vehicles around when we have our trailers attached and for lots of folks, it can end up being an expensive learning curve.

In this one, we check out a series of trucks that take the trailering concept to a whole new level entirely. Just when you thought that you had the skills to pay the bills by being able to operate your truck and trailer combination, into the picture comes something that is even more difficult to drive. This time, we’re talking about road trains. Essentially, they’re a semi-truck with an additional trailer tacked on.

Now, these combinations aren’t really that common here in the United States, but in other areas of the world, they can be found on streets everywhere. In this video, we’re given the unique opportunity to check out a selection of these road trains as drivers give it their all to attempt to navigate them through tight situations. If you thought that backing up a trailer was difficult, imagine having an additional trailer connected to your pre-existing rig. Long story short, these guys definitely have some skills to be desired and you can see them all for yourself down below. This is definitely a must watch for anyone who can identify with the struggle of learning how to roll with a trailer!
