How to: 4 Step Method Parking Menuever- 45 Degree Alley Dock

Video Tutorial on one of the parking manuevers truck driver perform everyday.

[@donnelljefferson4161]

I got my CDL in 1986 and trained myself (no CDL Schools back then) by working for a moving company and backing up trailers in the yard. To the newbies...never get distracted in your backing or let other drivers in the yard or truck stop bother you with their comments or let your "ego" tell you to get it in one shot causing you an accident..there is "no" wrong in getting out and checking the clearence and obsticles around the tires and trailer as many times needed. Sometimes in tight spaces you have to get out many times or do pull-ups..REMEMBER IF YOUR TRAILER AXLE IS SET ALL THE WAY BACK WILL HAVE A DIFFERENT TURING RADIUS THEN THE TRAILER IN THIS VIDEO (TRAILER AXLES IS SET FORWARD).

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

You’re surely right 👌

[@ne9835]

Thanks man!!

[@DA-br9xd]

For some of the newbies out there, believe it or not, having those cones there (which would be trailers or other trucks in real life) actually makes it a little easier....or it does for me anyway. It kinda gives you something to shoot for. Whenever I have nothing, no lines or anything around, I usually end up a little crooked on the first shot and need to do a pull up or two lol

[@crookeddonald4761]

This is a cool guy right here with a good attitude. You can tell he's genuine and not one of the usual annoying complainers on here. Appreciate the videos man.

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

Thanks man. Much love for you

I'm a new driver and this video little helped me alot I'm currently with my mentor now and I followed this video to the T and my mentor asked me have I ever back a trailer before because that was perfect every step was dead on thanks for the video my man I'm definitely going to keep these tips with me throughout my career as a truck driver

[@rafaelfeliz9961]

Excellent presentation. Short, straight to point, A must watch not only for beginners but for all truckers. Keep up your excellent work.

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

Thank you sir

[@BinaryTechnique]

Thanks bro. Just got my CDL class A but the school I went to made us parallel park, not alley dock, which made no sense since docking will performed a million times more than parallel parking 🤣

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

😂😂😂. That’s true. Congratulations on getting your CDL A 😀

[@COOPER1524]

Great demonstration on how to do an alley dock, I'm a newbe, and I've been having a hard time with it, in school they just say hard right, then hard left, you demonstrated and pointed out the 12oclock and the 9oclock , you simplified the steps, I now feel more confident in doing the maneuver,, thanks again, from your new subscriber.

[@Brsrafal]

sometimes the student is the best teacher no fancy camera set up few mistakes i like how u put cones close together great job

[@tonyharrelson9974]

That's some serious tight space, great instruction by the way.

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

Thank you 🙏🏿

[@REEUNSWORLD]

I liked how you explained and taking time for your camera to put on good angle, continue what you’re doing!

[@FamilyOtero413]

Thank you , couldn’t get this to save my life

[@bennyblanxs2754]

Well said and well done! Definitely learned a lot from this instructional and you made it easy to follow along!

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

Appreciate your words. Glad that I could be a help.

[@amardiid305]

Thanks Boss You Give Me A lot Of Lesson In One Video Than My School Did For A Month

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

Wow; that’s crazy and I’m glad to be a help. God bless you and I hope nothing but the best for you

[@myeshiaa6736]

I’m on my last test and alley dock is my weakness, this helps explaining 💪🏾now I need to push it in motion

[@bigblocc301]

Mine too I failed it last week but I got another test next Tuesday I been watching every video I can lol

[@mnolan5095]

My grandfather taught me to play pool at a very young age. I think that helped when I drove a tractor trailer because I understand angles.

[@mrdavislist5967]

Keep doing what you are doing my brother and be safe out there on the road.

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

Thanks man. Same for you

[@yudithmlopez]

Thanks for the video it's been the best I've seen so far. You explained it correctly

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

Glad to be a help 😊

[@lucascastanon8574]

Great content bro I use to drive a trash truck and a week from now I'll be starting a new job driving a semi truck for a trucking company and this was great teaching to me definitely 👍

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

Wow, that’s awesome. Keep up a great work bro. Glad to be a help.

Great Video! Learned a lot! Thank you I learned something new today!

[@chrisreeves9820]

This is a very good instructional video.

[@KeepGrinding_11]

Great video I’ve been struggling on this I’m gonna try this maneuver!!

[@arnelramos7137]

I like the way you do it keep on trucking my fan more info it helps a lot to me and others keep doing video my fan

[@romeodimal662]

Thank you Brother. It is loud and clear.

[@josephhumberto-bf1dd]

Great demostration ...excellent !😊

[@thelordvonnie]

Thank you! You took time to detail your backing steps 😊

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

You welcome 🙏🏿

[@ricardomiranda6785]

i wish i could learn some day like you.,God bless

[@keithmackall]

Awesome 🤩 they didn’t even teach us this maneuver so detail at roadmaster in Dunn North Carolina. Thanx

[@jeremiahhughes7442]

Roadmaster is making people come back and take an actual cdl test. Sue them

[@princeprince5170]

This video helps me a lot, thank you brother

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

You welcome. Glad that I could help

[@yaniragonzalez8337]

Excellent love it very helpful tips

[@geminijeff610]

Thanks for the helpful tips, I've been out of school since November. And I plan to get into the truck at the beginning of the year. I'm more worried about the backing than anything

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

You’ll get it bro. Keep practicing. One of many tips that I can say is: don’t let anyone pressure you; take your time.

[@telly_denver]

Thank you for the video! It helped a lot!

[@MT_20_24]

Good video brother, keep up the good your work 👍😎👍😎

[@deneisadynamics7451]

Great video, thank you!

[@loununez1300]

Thank you for the information 🙏. My trainer keeps cursing me out when I make a mistake backing into a dock ..

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

Not a problem. Glad to help. Great advice for you is to change your trainer. No trainer should be treating a trainee like that. A teacher suppose to have patience with the student.

[@robertolarach2681]

Thanks for the video 👍🏼

[@ubaste2498]

Excellent video bro. Thanks alot.

[@darrylwmurphy738]

Once you've continue with practice, this can be mastered and actual backing can be done in minutes.

[@cletusmwenya9644]

Yes they did have CDL Training School back 86, matter of fact I think the first time I ever heard of it was like 83 are 84. I was lucky I learned from my uncle and I otr my first 20 years and the last 22 I was a local contractor for the usps been retired for the last three years

[@sherrieleemalisch8700]

I would like to see how far does the trailer tail swing out when turning right only 4 ft away from the line of parked trucks. .

Well explained 👍

For a few months now I have been searching tirelessly for information on how to start investing. I even payed $1000 for a course that I now regret. It appears that there is no structured guidiance for beginners on how to get started in this realm. I've come across several investors making well over $250k/annum and would be grateful if anyone on here could provide insights on how to get started, identify potential stocks, when to make an entry, exit etc.

There are actually a lot of ways to make high yields in a crisis, but such trades are best done under the supervision of Financial advisor.

He did a good job on teaching how to do it but one thing you don't do is walk forward out of your truck always walk backwards out

Great job bro

Good video brotha 👌

[@princepagani7596]

Bro it can be more explained more simpler than this I'm going to watch this over and over

[@vantroy4284]

Thank you 🙏🏾

[@markkeith9055]

sometimes I wish I had super human strength so I could lift the trailer into position.

[@GeorgePelayo-wd4df]

How do you fix it. When the back of your trailer is inside the hole but the back of the trailer went to much to the left. How do fix that while going reverse still in a tight spot??

[@SS-og2jz]

Thanks for this, I was in school but the instructor never told me these very important details

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

You welcome. Love to share what I been taught.

Good job

[@mrdavislist5967]

When are you making a new video sir?

[@darrylwmurphy738]

With any type of backing.

[@VchaosTheoryV]

If you setup well enough, then all you had to do was straight wheel and back up. The trailer will offset itself towards the hole

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

You’re right

[@dwighttaylor5107]

Fabulous thanks

[@rolis-3731]

Buen piloto

[@edgarlemos435]

I'm practicing my backing into docks and been watching a lot of these videos and just want to ask do all these starting points and moves apply to sleeper trucks or will they on either??

[@DA-br9xd]

These principles should work on any truck. You're really wanting to watch your tandems as the pivot point. If you have your tandems forward (side note: be mindful of the trailer overhang on the rear of the trailer when tandems are all the way forward), the trailer will respond a bit quicker and the opposite if you have your tandems pushed all the way back...meaning the trailer will respond to your movements a little slower. If you're in a day cab, it might be a shorter truck than a sleeper (but not always), then you have a bit of an advantage since your truck can get back under the trailer quicker with its shorter wheelbase and you can kinda correct where your trailers headed without possibly having to pull up. Either way, all of this stuff pretty much works the same way, it's just the longer you make things (truck wheelbase or trailer tandems) the slower they are to react. I hope this didn't confuse you more lol

[@mauriciomaldonado7850]

Good job boss

[@Sweetstevenson]

My niece trying to get her CDL but having problem backing up

[@lazaroreyes7031]

Thanks

[@chrisreeves9820]

He means up and to the right. To get back under the trailer driver side.

[@MichaelSmith-cf7ht]

Great video, thanks.

[@vdean2010]

I understand that you are new and I encourage you to keep practicing, but you are making this a lot harder than it is. The key to good backing is having a good setup before you start. You would have benefited more from waiting to do your 45 degree turn until the rear tires of the tractor are by your last cone. You really want your trailer to be as close to straight as possible before you start backing up. The way you are doing it now isn't going to work well with a loaded trailer especially if it's loaded heavy. Not knocking your video but method needs a little practice.

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

Thanks for the info. Will like to learn more from you.

[@Car_prayers.]

[@krickshorts5346]

Ya just learned how to reverse, now yer gonna teach it?

[@karellmirabal3419]

👍😇🙏

[@WillCarter1976]

When you reduce backing to a formula you limit people to one tool and they will incorrectly use it in all situations. every backing situation can be different, and that's just the nature of the game. Experience beats formula every time. By locking people into doing something the same way every time, you're actually limiting their growth, not growing it. If the only tool in your toolbox is a hammer, every problem starts looking like a nail.

[@ridingwitha.h2927]

You surely right. Just did the video for people that are new to backing to get an idea.

[@bruceholmes2721]

@ will carter damn you drop a real gem When you said every backing situation is different never limit ur self to just one method sooo true 💯💯💯

[@arnelramos7137]

If you don't mind can I had email to that company sir interested to apply as truck driver thanks

[@garrythomas492]

Trucking schools teach you how to pass the test, not necessarily how to back into a dock
