I found it easier to do by ‘hanging out the window’ and looking back at the trailer, it partly eliminates the left is right and right is left complication :) But in the end, the most important thing is to keep practicing and you’ll get good at it sooner than you’d think :)

[@SABSCORPION]

Use 5 it's even better you can also see the whele and that's how people park in real life i speak from experience

[@Cannibal666Corpse]

Yep. Same. Even though I´m getting better with the mirrors, I still prefer to stick the neck out, for some reason.

[@michaelgardiner520]

I do that when I’m backing my truck all the time , reversing an HGV isn’t difficult

[@davidty2006]

Hmmm i find mirrors super confusing so i always just stick head out the window even for a blindside.

[@thewaffle3945]

try parking with realistic mirrors and camera interior it is hardcore man

[@haryosoo]

1st person cam is pretty immersive while aided by leaning out cam. The challenge is when you gotta park from the blind side when you gotta rely on the mirrors. But then again, practice makes perfect, just quicksave before approaching the destination company's parking lot.

[@pesymistik]

in real life you have to go out and check for yourself :)

[@raithrover1976]

Straightening the 5th wheel coupling joint before you start reversing is the most important thing. I call it the artic driver's wiggle. Also, if you can see too much trailer in the left mirror, turn the wheel to the left. If you can see too much trailer in the right mirror, turn the wheel to the right, is advice i got when i was learning in real life.

[@DJChappie001]

Thanks for the tip. I'm completely new to ETS and having difficulties parking. I'll try that.

[@johnbower7452]

The main thing is to enjoy it too; I've backed 2 real trailers now (experience days) and it taught me that reversing accurately can be both fun and satisfying. As you say don't be hard on yourself; that just takes away the enjoyment. truck slow; steering fast as the instructors both told me. 1 on 2 off; that means to straighten the trailer up for every turn you put on the wheels you need to take 2 the other way. Good tips and also; we have it a little harder than real life as our mirrors (for most people anyway) are much smaller than the real thing; believe me; they are huge on a real lorry and you can see so much better in them.

[@Roon_MoonlightSub]

I learned parking by spending time on practicing on ETS2 and ATS ;) By the way nice video!

[@zakouragus]

Truck in real life?

[@Roon_MoonlightSub]

@@zakouragus No I meant the game

[@americanrider]

Of course, a proper approach and setup for the chosen parking spot is important. The mistake is thinking just steering inputs at the front of the rig will do the job when you should really be watching the trailer tandems for steering inputs to guide the trailer into position, just remember your steering inputs will be reversed.

[@TheJAlexander]

For those who are aiming for a real trucking career like I am, you can challenge yourself by trying to park the trailer on first person and using the mirrors. You can use the camera 2 as a way to believe you get out of the truck to see how you're doing so far.

[@Max-om5gh]

Trust me the game doesn’t represent the real life scenario, the motions of the truck do but the vision of being in the game is different to the eye vision in real life and making judgement.

[@SaMartok]

Thx for the tutorial 👍 I'm allways struggeling with double trailercombo's, like the Krone double.

[@JayPengX]

After a few tries, your video has proven helpful, thank you for giving us some great tips to make the leaning process easier.

[@TaronTT]

Thank you for this video! I can park really well myself, but it will help a ton for my friends who are still learning.

[@MilanTrucker]

[@zuzaapl]

This tutorial really will help me in ATS. Thank you!

[@androidgamingtech7685]

This tutorial will be so useful not Just In ETS2, but in all truck games.. I usually set off as slow as i can and more likely to be backing up slowly. Then I hangout the drivers head on the window side and Then while backing up im using both mirrors

[@dosaminereloaded8899]

Thank you. I learnt, how to park trailer prefectly

Cool video for people to lean how to back up me I like it tighter the better after spending 38 years behind the wheel of a truck thanks

[@avgeek_luke]

Thank you so much,now,i know what it needs to park a truck correctly.

[@jogutrucker]

Nice video as alwyas Milan. It is a huge step for the player once they master the parking process. It took time for me too but practice makes perfect as always.

[@anonymousfuck9320]

Make the truck and trailer straight and dont fucking steer. Most people steer way to much

[@CW_user]

Really useful for beginners, knowing the trailer movement is the key point

[@MilanTrucker]

Yes! 🤠👍

[@Hypersky75]

What the taught me in trucking school: Top of the steering wheel = front of trailer, bottom = back. Move accordingly. 😊

[@mulleflemse4560]

Actual truckdriver here, i started with steer axles when i started driving and they are much easier to reverse with than fixed ones

[@cecilchance5843]

Slow and steady is the way to go, you do it once you master the art

[@dgcompany54]

10/10 Tried with my ford focus, I can now park everywhere 👍

[@bgmikayoutuber4145]

Me with oversize trailer Thanks for the help man now i parked my trailer but the company got a bit to much happy they didnt give me money

[@T.K.9]

what I found is that its easier to reverse when you are at the outside camera looking at the front of the truck and seeing where its reversing. Its easy to re-adjust the turn when you can see the tire's whether if they are turned or straight on. So that you know when you did the slight turn to re-adjust then return it to straight on to continue backing up. The last thing you wanna do is back up while the tires are on a slight turn and it messes your maneuver. Being in the cab FPS view of the driver and just using the mirrors, is a bit more difficult.

[@mihajlomilenkovic5366]

really nice explained, really like it and it helped a lot

[@TheDrivingJunkie]

Another pro tip: Best way to tell if you are in the spot, this mainly works loading docks like the depot's like in this video is that when are back into the dock the white lines on the dock should be seen in both side mirrors. Never be afraid to use the "get out and look" method. Bumping the dock pads can give you better input on where you need to be and tell you wheather you are too far to the left or right and/or are crooked. Both coners ends the trailer should be in between the lines on the dock doors and again the lines should be visible in both side mirrors. In some docks depending on how SCS created the docs there's may not be a line or it's too far in or over so if can't see the dock door in either mirror after you bump it you are golden(but this does not apply with wide dock doors as they are different. This helped me a lot in my rookie days.

[@gabrieldavid4250]

Who knew that Doc would also teach us how to park a trailer

[@BattleshipOrion]

Even I was learning to backup in ATS I searched for videos on how to back up. I've gotten rusty, but I use to be able to back trailers in one-shot depending on the dock (I preferred more open ones over tighter lots). This was in first person on the Viper 389 (official 389 was not out yet)., and it's horrible turning radius. Also, nice truck.

[@roplexgaming8850]

this actually helped me so much tysm❤

[@akbarhatta849]

just imagine you're pushing a supermarket trolley. you're the cabin, with your hand act as the back axle, and the trolley itself as a trailer.

[@rezaalan3991]

Great useful video, man. I'm curious, have you already making video about company with largest and smallest trailer parking area? If no, please make it

[@Ganime-chan]

I always hanging out the window and remember left for right and right for left

[@dylandetaeye]

When you have a wheel, a head tracker is a must have when j want to use the truck mirrors.

[@Catonaut.]

advanced trailer parking and change the number in the "parking_doubles" profile config.cfg file allows you to park Doubles and HCTs in those parking slots

[@TurEP0107]

Owh, thanks bro for the tutorial on how to park on ETS2 / ATS.👍 Sometimes I find a hard spot so don't park (skip) :))

[@scottytissue73]

Best trick I've learned in backing trailers is to put your hand at the bottom of the wheel. Then you simply turn the wheel from there in the direction you want the back of the trailer to go.

[@aluxtaiwan2691]

I think do the right turn parking in a left hand drive truck is the hardest, specially if you don't have big screen to see the right hand mirror clearly.

[@timdg4]

i leaned it irl when i had tractor driving exam i used to drive with a trailer so i had to dock at a warehouse it was pretty hard but i passed :D

[@chrishines6048]

One thing that I've learnt after 9 years of playing ets2 is imagine your pushing and turning a wheelbarrow and as I do 99% of reversing from inside the cab I look at the furthest wheel on the trailer from the truck and draw an imaginary line from that wheel so I roughly know where the trailer is going and I let the truck roll into the bay which leaves me worry about steering

[@hawky2k215]

That's how I can do it in first person views all the times with windows down now 🤣

[@hawky2k215]

But I do always keeps my eyes on the corner of the trailer and the measurement of the turning position also what makes it more easier is extra steering axle on the truck you can lower that and it'll turned better

[@chrishines6048]

@@hawky2k215 I do keep one eye on one side of the truck and one eye on the other side

[@hawky2k215]

@@chrishines6048 I don't. I used realistic roles like window down then extra wheel down too. Pop head out then reserved into the spot. But to be honest I were like a rubbish when first played. Now Been playing for years. It is an advanced experiences. The hardest one is when the box is so small and it at middle

[@chrishines6048]

@@hawky2k215 me too and I simulate getting out of the cab to check the trailer and when I'm picking up a load I simulate getting out of the truck and lifting the legs and plugging in the cables

[@dutchrookie7556]

Only time i really mess up is in ATS with the 53 feet trailers. It takes a while before you see the results of turning a 53' trailer when turning the wheel.

[@KyzoFox]

Remember, this applies to real life. Parking a trailer in real life is easy at time but. When it comes to closed tight spaces like truck stops and rest stop with a bunch of truckers. It’s very important to learn how to park a trailer perfectly without hitting anything between two Semi/Lorrie/COE When parking a trailer in reverse, Counter steering is the only way. Like a motorcycle. But very different. Counter steering is steering the opposite way

[@JVPTH3MVP]

What I've found helps is to think about if from a geometry perspective. You can think of the trailer as a beam whose position is adjusted at two pivot points being the center of the trailer axles and the 5th wheel. When back into a spot, I try to get the center of the trailer axles (center axle on a tri axle drailer and in between the two axles on a 2 axle trailer or center two axles on a 4 axle trailer) in line with the center of the spot then work on manuevering the 5th wheel to be in line by cutting the wheel and whatnot. With European trucks having much shorter wheelbases than their American counterparts you can swing around the front of the truck much faster once you have the trailer axles and 5th wheel lined up in the spot. With longer wheel base trucks, even when you cut the wheel all the way to either side, the 5th wheel will still move out of line as the distance traveled by the steer axle isn't far enough to keep the 5th wheel's position from shifting further to the side instead of only continuing to go back.

often time it is not a problem to park the truck but the problem is you can see what is going on around you, and you can tell how the overall feeling is. I do have an American Track tor trailer felt in all available states and I bought all the Garage and hired many drivers, but I still can not park my own truck because I can not see a dam thing around me. the system sucks I tried the overhead camera but soon as I moved the truck it switched to another angle ..
