<upd_detl>No, not "esp". I've heard it when there were no cars around. It's commonly used in that context, but it's far from the only use.</upd_detl>

"You'll often hear workmen outside bellowing this in the early hours of the morning, usually accompanied by the incessant beeping sound that large vehicles make when reversing. It's a pretty common phrase used to help people back into a space. All right then."</upd_refs>

<upd_detl>I was going to propose adding "オライ" as a visible form, hence all the research. But after looking at everything I think this is mostly a spoken phenomenon, and people shouldn't be encouraged to *write* it is this way.

Nonetheless, I "*heard* オライ and wanted to see if it was here, and couldn't find it.  You hear this all the time when a work truck or garbage truck is in reverse, and someone is guiding.  I don't think there is usually a long "o" at the beginning in this rhythmic "オライ オライ オライ" context. (オライ is repeated so long as the driver should continue in reverse).

I wouldn't mind オライ with a note, but we don't even do this on 雰囲気 (I might make a comment there...)

I'd note, I don't think the "it's safe to continue backing up" form is [int].</upd_detl>

「オライ」と短縮して使うことが多い事もあり &lt;--- frequently abbreviated

私のいつものスタンドでは『オライ！オライ！』って、言ってました。

The cutest demonstration, as a minecraft boat is backed up, one player does the "beep beep beep" of a truck in reverse, and another echoes "オライ" "オライ" オライ"

Here's quick tutorial on how to back up a vehicle. Term used repeatedly throughout. Pretty sure that's not a long vowel
