tight corner

It took the driver a few tries to safely maneuver around the corner.

  6. Hello,
    That does look like a very tight turn for a tractor trailer. It is good they had some help guiding them. Take care, enjoy your day!

  7. I'd be like the woman on the sidewalk, leaning away from the big truck, as if it would help make space for its turn.

  13. I have driven on Irish roads, and the last vehicle I would want to drive is a large truck. The car I had was too large for many of the roads, and I sometimes escaped into a driveway to let traffic past.

  14. Whenever I see a driver manoevering a large truck around a tight corner, I always applaud and give them the thumbs up!

  15. Certainly is. Takes skill to drive a huge lorry!

  16. Reminds me of a line from the movie Oh Brother, Where Art Thou, "we're in a tight spot".
