I didn’t even receive alley docking training at the school I went to.

Thats the instructor who's talking about .bravoooo is the same for 90 degrees blind side.

Thanks Steve! Watching your videos helped me a lot. I know have my CDL class A! 🎉❤🎉

This video helped me in so many ways. I passed my mva test today thanks to you . Keep making videos cause in these school they don’t explain it like you do .

Excellent tutorial. In training now and this made things mich clearer for me.

How many other motorists are killed and or seriously injured by commercial vehicle operators

If you are a recent grad, get an interview for a road test and do not do well, will they train you to be better?

This is perfectly said. I’ve seen so many truck drivers over the years inpatient and being downright rude on the interstate, And so many times I’ve turned on the news or a social media feed seeing jackknifed trailers. Even when not at fault, I think defensive driving plays an important role in accident prevention or minimizing the severity. Being a truck driver takes a lot of wisdom,skill, maturity, Ability to not take things personally or allow feelings to interfere with safe driving. You cannot control what others do only how you respond.

Great Advice !!!! ❤ this is clearly a very experienced person Who knows what they are talking about. There are a lot of KZbin channels with people who have no clue but act like they do. This is truly a great channel.

I really appreciate this video because I feel it’s very important to do extensive research on the trucking industry as well as the job outlook to understand what your getting into and be well informed to make good decisions. I saw that Amazon also has Amazon freight partners other trucking companies that move freight for Amazon using Amazon’s trailers in a partnership with them. They start at $24 an hour and they hire brand new CDL drivers. I was looking at this to get experience once I do obtain my CDL it’s great timing that I came across this video. 😊

This is an excellent and wise approach towards assessing students so they can see their progress firsthand.

Nice teaching

These videos are very helpful. I start CDL school very soon at NATS and I want to study and prepare as much as possible so that I have a good foundation starting from day one of school.

I have been going to school for a week to get my class A license. Yesterday, the owner of the school came out all angry because he saw a classmate doing a maneuver and the classmate couldn't, but actually, the only instructor we have is a classmate who got his license two weeks ago and he goes there to help the owner of the school. There are other experienced instructors, but they don't go every day and even so, the owner tells us that if we don't do the maneuver right, we'd better go home. I've been there for a week and they haven't taught me anything about the technique for doing maneuvers. The only thing I get in the truck and the classmate who is there tells me where I should move the steering wheel, but he doesn't explain the technique that I should do, the seconds that I have to count, what position I have to stay in or something alone. I'm totally frustrated with this school. The problem is that I already paid half of the school and I already have my appointment to go take my exam in a month.

My instructor told that driving a truck is “not rocket science, it’s all technique and tricks”

Good explanations

This is an awesome video. I will be starting CDL school and I am trying to understand the concept behind all of the skills as well as study for my learners permit. This is an excellent video and extremely helpful. Thank you so much !!!

Thank you for this video gives me knowledge for when I go for my cdl training.

Yoo thanks

Company I work for made me start switching to learn how to alley dock and man was I grad at got that opportunity I learned a lot from that

My school sucks but now I cannot go back already paid.

On blind-side offset, what if I’m too far out to the left? Pull forward left and then straighten out? I feel like a dummy for not being able to get that lol

Good dude

Bette than 99% on hands trainers out there

In school i was taught to straight wheel it to turn it the trailer more to the left. I was told if i turn the wheel right that would get me away from the cone. So if i pulled up snd turned the wheel to the right, thats the only time ill be able to get away from the cone?

Man I'm confused, in school they told me the only time I would make a right turn, is at the very beginning when I'm getting my trailer in the angle, I thought turning right would move you away from the cone on the left. When I did my test I was in a stuck position where I couldn't figure out how to move my tires away from the cone on the left, so I turned the wheel to the right and the tires moved away from the cone, from there I was able to get my truck lined up..but in this video you made a few Right turns and that brought you closer to the cone 😵‍💫.. I need help understanding how turning the steering wheel to the right brings you closer to the cone vs taking you away from the cone. In class I made my first initial hard right, then straight wheel, hard left was the rest of the maneuvers until I got stuck

Great video you just answered all my question on the reverse offset

Can you do this with a step deck trailor

When you say "Follow up" , you mean straightening the angle between the tractor and the trailer , right?

Sounds about right ✅️

My school sucks, they are not teaching me any of this, the lines are poorly painted, the cones are poorly placed, we have to do it ourselves and with the help of some students who have been practicing for a while. Now I understand why in my school there are students who have been trying to do the maneuvers for eight weeks.

Got it do it 🔦 i'm on my 2 years experience in trucking and every time during my two years i always have the flashlight 🔦 out to make sure but few weeks back i almost drop a trailer because i didn't had a clear view of the kingpin thanks God it didn't drop on the floor the frame of the truck stopped the trailer from falling to the ground that was my first mistake as a truck driver my advice to the new drivers is never rush when hooking up to a trailer even if you're late take your time to double check everything and don't takeoff if you have doubts and feel something is not right

FAILED: just want to share i did this during my exam today in illinois. My driver window was fully up and closed, still looked the window(closed) like this driver in the video did. Examiner said i made it in the box perfectly, but failed me for using the driver window and not looking forward. I blame my school and examiner for not expressing that i could not look out my driver window at all even if it was closed. But live and learn I’ll do it better next week. Just thought id share.

He has room because The fedex truck on his blind side is cab truck.
