So glad this guy helped him, because even tho I never had trouble back, I remember being scared crapless on my first couple of loads by myself, so many variables and you by yourself. After about 3 or 4 loads, it's was like second nature. Good video guy, so glad to see other drivers helping, like you said, gotta start somewhere, in about a year, "as long as he doesn't have an accident" he'll be able to back it in blind folded!

All "training" companies are like this. I started with CRST... Ugh... The key is to get a good trainer after you get your CDL and a good team mate after (CRST is all team, I believe CR England is, too). I was fortunate to get both. Now I drive solo. Hate doing 90s... can't grasp the theory for some stupid reason. When I saw this guy not set himself up for a 45, I knew he was in trouble. Like my trainer said: if you got the room, use it.

I think CR teaches them to back at a 90. My first question to the driver would have been "which door are you trying to get to?"

I Feel Sorry For This Poor Guy !!!! It Is Not His Fault That C.R.England Only Teaches You Just Enough To Usually Fail Your Road Test, And C.R. England Thinks That A Trainer With Only Months Of No Training Or Poor Training Him Self, Is Enough To Turn Him Loose On The Road, Or Hire Him As A Trainer For Another Student Who Will Be Poorly Trained By A Poorly Trained Trainer !!!!!

I was a trucker passenger before I became a driver. Trust me, having some form of control actually makes it all seem better because you are the one looking at 4 mirrors, out the window and have the option to Get out and Look. It freaked me out watching others park cause I was focusing on how massively huge semis are. However, That sense of control and safety/patience eases the anxiety. If a 22yr. Old girl as myself can learn it, you are fully capable of gaining experience! Being steady and looking at your surroundings is the taboo.

Get out and look, that is the main reason new drivers hit so much stuff, they don't GOAL.... if I took a half an hour to get it in there, I was glad as long as I didn't hit anything or anyone's truck.

realize that this is a year ago, but this is so painful to watch. At some point this guy should have gotten OUT OF THE TRUCK to get a look and then you could have given him a better understanding of why he needed to be at a 45 degree angel and where at.

I'll be the first one to say that i had to go the mega-carrier route to go to trucking school , and get my cdl. I now know we were passed through like cattle, and not properly trained. Especially on how to back up!!! It's so deflating to not be able to do your job properly.. But i am thankful that we have some caring, experienced drivers who will give their time to help an inexperienced driver. Thanks to men, and women who take the time to guide us, and not just sit there and laugh, or try to look cool by making a you tube video showing some rookie driver struggling to back in somewhere.

I'm a yard jockey I see drivers that can't back up all the time The last driver asked if he can drop it for me to back it in because he didn't know how . Than after he was loaded he asked where to park for the night I told him on the side of the building there's a dirt lot other drivers were parked there . An hr later he was circling the dirt yard Because he couldn't back in lol He asked me to hop in his truck and back his truck in I didn't have all day I was busy so I did it for him I don't get how these drivers are alone with no trainers and don't know how to drive
