Class A CDL Maneuvers

[@MonsterTruckingCo.]

I’m not one for the easy way out, but the driving took me almost all my weeks of training to get the hang of it. I’m usually good at everything I do and am just a natural at it. I have autism, and I got my CDL, so if I can do it, anyone can. My biggest advice and this is what made me go from all over the place to nailing every move with no pull-ups is to plan your first move, do it and then stop. Bring tractor and trailer straight and stop. Look out window and evaluate your situation. Then make your next move and stop. Re evaluate again and back it in. Physically look out your window, I sometimes reversed my plan of execution because I wasn’t looking at the corner of the trailer and was only looking on the mirror and got myself all messsd up. There is no rules in the CDL test that says you have to do the maneuver on a single motion. Stop as many time as you need to. You only get points when you pull up and or hit a boundary or cone, so take your time

[@germanlopez9448]

[@dopeboyfresh01]

Just wanna thank you because of this video I easily passed my maneuvers today and now just sitting here waiting with my wife to check online to see if I passed thanks man great work

[@DieselJE]

This is the most useful video I’ve seen so far about learning and understanding angles. I knew there had to be a formula to this and I was right. The driving school my job sent me to is a joke and just keeps telling me to “ feel for it”.

[@ElLeon68]

After watching 50 videos this is the best explication that every student is going to need. Thank you so much I really appreciate this video.

[@SafeRideDA]

Thank you. We're glad you enjoyed it

[@lccollier1]

Thank you for the video y'all need to make more maneuvers videos I'm in CDL school now

[@narcblaqkout6649]

I'm in my 2nd week and just barely passed this maneuver. I really appreciate this video. This is the best out of them all, including my school😆🤐👍🏾

[@aloveaffairwithself]

This was the most helpful video I saw on the parallel parking maneuver. You gave a method to the madness.

[@Ricardo-dg4eg]

This video was awesommeeee!!! Good refreshers for those of us that took some bs course that stalled us out from going to dps to test!

[@josephherrmann6304]

I have only backed like this about 2 times in 37 years over the road driving, and it was at a rest stop. Don't know why they want this on a test.

[@MonsterTruckingCo.]

So glad I was in the last round of the old test, straight line, offset, and alley dock. The new test seems like it would be harder

Good text but why here.

[@abeykadammanitta]

I passed my Road test yesterday in NYC. Big Thanks for your help 🙏 Your Road test video for CDL 😊

[@bones1492]

Keep in mind, if your instructor is using lines or marks on THEIR training course, it’ll do you NO good on a different DMV course!! You must use the truck/trailer as your means to know when to make your steering wheel moves.

[@ivebeenbamboozled9210]

Thank you I've been practicing and doing it exactly like I see it in the video, works every time. ...Now for that alley dock 😑.

[@ivebeenbamboozled9210]

I passed my CDL test 9/3/23 first time. Added an tanker endorsement. Thanks again

[@AcobbReid]

Thank you, Safe Ride Driving Academy! This video provided awesome instructions that helped me successfully complete my CDL maneuverability test. Your guidance was invaluable!

[@amybailey7774]

Thank you for this video as I’m about to start school in January

[@SafeRideDA]

Awesome. Good luck. We wish you the best.

[@emmanuelamoh182]

Great learning skill. you mentioned left but turned to the right,great video this has been helpful. Thank you🤔

[@Voltomess]

this dude has iussue and doesn't know which side is left and ehich is right and should learn before making that kindof video.

[@monstermind4286]

I back up pretty good with one pull up on the parallel parking. But the truck that I use is short, so it definitely Jack knives. Really quick, but this is a great demonstration. Great video

[@mansamusatheogjr4177]

I'm in cdl school now and for the life of me I can't get straight back and offset down. I'm at such a low point smh

[@RealBlackWoman]

I have been doing it for a month now and still have not learned anything.Dark times right now.😢

[@racheligutierrez9917]

I am in the same spot but I am believing in myself I got this just relax and we can do this

[@Kingsavagelife]

This is a great video I watched it so many times I still failed I did better in practice then on my test 😞 and I failed on a straight back to make it even worse and I usually do good with straight back and offset parallel is what supposed to be the hard one for me guess 😞

You got it bro, probably anxious guarantee you pass no issues 💯✊🏾

I didn’t do parallel for my CDL just 90 , straight and offset , my offset was terrible I just pull all the way forward and back straight after the initial setup , I wish seeing this video before good explanation, I got cero points in the offset anyway but look awful 😂 , I don’t remember doing any parallel parking at anytime for now but good to know

Do you have a video regarding how to do alley dock? Need to learn that.

Currently we do not. But we will work on that soon.

Is this effective for the changes the dmv is making starting July 10th?

Thanks great video help me a lot

[@SafeRideDA]

Thank you for watching 😊

[@tylarcheater5536]

I just watch the first part of video straight if i did everything exactly same i would have failed when he turned on hazards im not allowed to switch hazards through the sterring wheel as wheel can jar and hurt your arm and second when finishing we have to set the brakes before we take out of gear just little things like that seem ridiculous to get deducted points right away but driving technique is nice

[@trapgoat1238]

i have issues with my left N right any pointers

[@pistolpat-16]

For parallel my instructor makes us line up the cone with the rear bumper, then start the manuever...which is it line the reat bumper up with the cone or the rear tire??? I tried it his way and stunk....got 3 weeks left ...gotta get parallel down packed

[@joelmorales7937]

I wish my test was on a smooth road. Mines gonna be at a yard that dirt and gravel and unlevel

[@Tja-oz8bj]

Im having trouble setting up my cones ro practice,hiw do i get then even?

[@mischievousme123]

I hope my question makes sense but how deep do you go into your 45? Do you split the V in the landing gear or do you go a little past it?

[@SafeRideDA]

Watch our other video on the "top 6 tips" it will have more information on the parallel parking.

[@ebzsparkingticket9182]

Did you find a video that talked about splitting the V? The tips video is good as well, but I'd like to learn about the V as well because I remember one of the instructors at my school teaching his students that technique. I would think that is good when you don't have lines and cones.

[@muzamilgani4398]

[@cervantecyrus8542]

At 5minutes 5 seconds you exit the truck totally wrong! That's an automatic fail for would be truckers that's trying to get their CDL. If you're going to teach, teach 100 percent correctly.

[@cervantecyrus8542]

Always 3 points of contact when entering and exiting the vehicle.
