Amazing truck driver blind side backing a set of B trains

[@ericginpa]

I drove for twenty years and during that time peddled freight in Manhattan for nine of those years. This guy deserves a medal! Whatever they’re paying him, it isn’t enough!

[@007outtacontrol]

No doubt

[@RodeoJoe1981]

He drives for laidlaw, ofcourse it's not enough!

[@markcotter4213]

Yes! I worked at UPS for ever and most of the drivers I saw couldn't back up 1 trailer.

[@lucasdobson9278]

There not hard bud us the front trailer as your truck whatever way your truck goes the back one goes the same way as your truck i love b trains I dont want to haul a 53ft trailer again

[@robertgrove4601]

@@lucasdobson9278 I can back up B TRAINS, now A TRAINS that's another story

[@ManuelGarcia-ov7do]

Asome. I have 30 years driving, and I still probably couldn’t do that. That’s some kind of kicking ass driving. My hats off to him.

[@SoapinTrucker]

my exact thoughts, I've been driving for 28 and did doubles for 22 of that and I could do a pup and a dolly but not a whole set especially blindsided, that's an outstanding and probably gifted driver right there, and I agree with somebody else he doesn't get paid enough no matter what he's getting paid!!!!! 🙃

[@littlepepper4370]

This guy deserves a raise! I can barely back a 53 ft trailer lol

[@RodeoJoe1981]

He'd get a lot of practice, those are dump trailers. Have to always back up to where you dump! Then disconnect and dump lead. A lot more work then a long end dump

[@Nico-ki2gc]

ähhh nope? not awsome

[@steveo5999]

If you had practice doing it you could

[@jasongraham8250]

14 years I’ve been driving and this guy made that maneuver look smooth as butter. I’m sick with jealousy.

[@Nico-ki2gc]

nope

[@mrc1539]

In my 50 + years of driving I could probably count on one hand the number of times I have seen this done . Hats off to you Driver.

I heard it was his first time!

[@leslie476]

One needs to be born with that talent

[@terryoconnor4208]

I have driven for 42 years ,that is by far the most skilled driver I have ever seen 90% of the drivers today can’t even back a single trailer up that well. Good job my trucking brother good job .

[@dr.z3426]

Get real buddy a 90 degree back is required for the cdl test...90 percent can't pfffft what a joke

[@jerryvandyke9216]

@@dr.z3426were talking a B train here pal,why not show us how you would do this

[@blauer2551]

I thought for a second he wasn’t even gonna need a pull up. That was harder than people think.

[@RodeoJoe1981]

I thought the same, it's hard to judge to get it all to straighten up blind side inline without the pull up

[@symbologee]

Unicorn

[@spandex7055]

LOL didn't just do it made it look easy, well done!

[@alanwhitsitt5196]

Blind side backing is tough enough. Much less to do it with an accordion! That was seriously impressive!

[@jenhart1779]

Wow!! There’s a driver that knows his stuff !! He has a good feel, insight for the length of the truck n trailers and the space needed to manoeuvre properly. He certainly has a good gift. He could educate a lot of today’s “truckers”. Wow!!

[@shootingstar9991]

Only real drivers can understand how difficult that is

[@A_Cowboy_called_JackRabbit]

That was pure art!

[@patriciawickholm3617]

Exactly!!!

[@perdition79]

Dude should win a Nobel Prize for backing.

[@matthewf5815]

I drive buses, and think I can back a bus anywhere. This guy makes me look like I have no clue how to back up. Well done. If anyone questions your ability, just show them this video! Not only did he do a blindsided backing, he had a hill that obstructed his view of the second trailer. Guess his next job is training new drivers?

[@drewrbunn]

Doubt it. He's probly had a couple trainees that couldn't speak English OR French, and just said "Fuck it, I'll stick to backing up B Trains blindside - it's easier."

[@teamjj153]

Thats definitely not today's new generation drivers, mad respect!!!! Skills brother💯

[@funieman1]

Salute to that driver from a fellow trucker💪🏾💪🏾✊🏾🔥🔥

[@superrich2719]

That’s how is done in Canada!! Laidlaw’s based out of Ontario 🇨🇦

[@007outtacontrol]

Damn good driving skills

[@ianparker6191]

Absolute legend! Great backing.

[@revharrycwigmoreiii5787]

Great Job, Driver!!!

What else can you say but that was “amazing “😎🇨🇦

[@bobstewart9365]

This brings back memories of TRYING to back in double haywagons in the barn !! I got kicked out of the tractor seat many of times then watch the older gentleman just get it first try !!

[@thats_it_folks]

much better then the camera dude !!!!

[@paulepanzer4498]

Absolutely brilliant. Thumbs up. I'm a German truck driver for over 30 years but this man but this man and his skills thrills me. Bravoooooooo, well done. Greets from Germany

Excellent! Some drivers are naturally good at backing up, this guy is SUPERB!

[@EricSmith-ve7qi]

I give that man a lot of respect!! One hell of a job backing those in there!! I have 20 years experience and don't know of i could do that!! Great job Driver!!!!!

[@mikesvacation]

That's more like a magic trick than a show of driving skills!!!! 👍👍👍

[@timb.9224]

I wouldn't have thought that was even possible. That trucker has got some mad skills.

[@kylesisk3110]

Wow I’m a trucker too I’m 29 about 8 years in and then B trains are horrible lol give that man a raise

[@RodeoJoe1981]

I wouldn't say there horrible, just a skill you haven't mastered yet!

[@masterlawson1009]

You'd hate trucking in New Zealand then, you gotta no how to operate a b-train.

[@masterlawson1009]

Oh and 95% of B-trains have a dolly instead of built into the trailer.

[@symbologee]

@@masterlawson1009 it's not a b train then...

[@andrewoconnor4761]

Very impressive skill indeed. Worked with truckers in Fort McMurray driving similar configurations, very difficult with 2 pivot points, a lot of weight, backing in tight places. They took great pride in being the best at backing up, my hat goes off to them.

[@ericm1430]

I worked for Laidlaw for 3 years. I have seen some guys that will put b-trains anywhere, better than most with a straight trailer. This was absolutely perfect.

[@larrycobb3102]

Hell, I drove OTR for 40 years and it was all I could do to just back 1 trailer blind sided.

[@davidkuznetsov9316]

no kidding doing all that from a fisheye very impressive

[@SAT1337]

1 trailer is harder to back than b-trains. Look at that room he has between the truck and trailer when jackknifed. With a 53 footer AND a reefer, you're toast at that angle.

[@carolwoods2231]

What an amazing job you did congratulations do you mind if I watch this 50 or a hundred times so I can learn how to do that ???

[@tony4075]

Yes indeed, that is amazing!! Way to go, whom ever you are.

[@BetterCallSauS]

These guys are so talented. Having just recently started pulling a B-Train, I can honestly say that it's a challenge to back them up. Totally different than previously pulling a tandem or tridem down the road. I hope with time to be more skilled like this gentleman.

[@jerryvandyke9216]

Nice of you to call him a gentleman,cause that is what he is and so are You

Back in the day when I was 15 at my folks farm we had 2 full hay wagons with bales my dad put the wagons by the barn .He said that we would have to run the wagons in to the barn because it might rain .My folks had to go to town and I stayed home .well they left and I looked at those wagons and well half HR later I backed those 2 wagons in to the barn shut the doors and put the tractor in the shed later my folks came home and my dad put the car in the garage walked out and seen me sitting on the lawn with a funny look and said where are the hay wagons ?? I said in the barn .I guess I did a good job and we both had big smiles .Not bad for a 15 year old Kid.Cjd wash state p.s. when ever I see a hay wagon it always put's s a smile on my face.🤔
