New experiences everyday

Finland isn´t known just because of the beautiful nature and good school system, they are also known because of their big and long trucks. The biggest truck in Finland is 34,5 meters long. In Slovenija the biggest truck we have is 18 meters long. At first no one belived me when I told them that I drove 25,4 meters long truck, but I did. I was suprised at first that they let me do it, even tho I have no drivings license. When my teacher told us to go with him and Rob in the truck to drive around I didn´t  expect that he is going to tell me to sit down on the driver´s seat.

Before we started driving  we had to check if everything looked normal, and the driver have to take alcohol test. If the driver doesn´t do that, the truck won´t turn on. When you are driving you have to use only right leg and you have to look at the mirrors a lot, so you can be sure that the trailer is straight. Driving around was easy, it was harder when had to reverse the truck. It was really nice experience and I am very happy that I got the opportunity to try it. I am very proud of myself, because I drove bigger truck than we have in our country.
