I think this is great, the saying goes “you all started somewhere” as truckers we are a team, even the ones that can no longer gear jam because of health or age. I started out driving for a livestock trailers so I learned about tight spaces, but that never stopped me of helping out a fellow driver. Truck stops are getting tighter for longer periods of time. After livestock I went to a large company and became a trainer. I don’t drive anymore due to my health. But I see guys having difficulty backing into a dock or even a parking spot at Walmart. Being a trucker is a lifelong brotherhood.

I only got a learners permit CDL Class A, I'm currently in Truck driving school I need to memorize my Exterior Pre-trip inspection and work on my offset backing. I'm gonna tell them that I need more practice I have to get better at offset backing, and 45 degree and 90 degree backing.

CAKEWALK!!!😁 My first six months I bet everyone I could back my trailer in the spot nearly perfect with my left hand behind my back and basically blindfolded.... I would simply pull up next to the fanciest trucks there(I knew they would be pros), put on my dark shades, stumbled out of the cab, and held up a Fresh Crisp $50. It's Amazing how beautifully my truck got parked! I understand the need to learn the hard way, but in amongst $300k trucks, with winter rain and snow is not the best time for that. If you're one of those that helped me park back then, I Will say Thank You Again, MUCH APPRECIATED!!!

Thanks for helping him out , i find it tricky when I have to pivot the trailer so close to other trucks , best thing is to swing wide and come in with the left trailer side as parallel as possible to the left yellow line , that guarantees its safe to keep going , unfortunately some places are too narrow or too short ahead , if u are to narrow u need more space ahead if u are too short ahead u need more space on the sides to pivot the L of the trailer .if u are both short and narrow its very hard and then u have to do lots of small pullups and G.O.A.L

The best place to be when helping another driver is up front on his passenger side watching his blind side. It's hard as heck for the driver to always keep the person in site with just a mirror. You also keep yourself out of harm's way being in back. You slip and fall back there its lights out for you. Just saying.

I think some drivers have a knack for it or did a lot of sand box training as a kid and other drivers develope the skill needed. Scottie does a great job explaining backing ALL THE TIME and must be helpful for less experienced drivers. I cannot imagine that driver coming into Boston. Ihelped back deliveries to construction jobs a lot. Some drivers knew the hand signals and others did the opposite. One of the best backup drivers I think is AllieKnight. She's from Boston AND back on the road in her own tractor.

He was holding a cup of coffee in his hand it slipped, hot coffee in his lap he was momentarily distracted caught the edge and there you go. Now will you PLEASE listen to me and don't drive with coffee in your hands and put your seat belt on. THANK-YOU. Hugs and kisses xxx
