How to reverse an A Double road train

[@villainjohnnoel8075]

Hi from France, i'm an Australian who lives and works in France, i drive à petrol tanker.I"ve driven trucks and dogs, even a quad dog during the harvest back in Australia. I've always wondered how you blokes back all those trailers,funny how you make it look so easy,you explained it pretty well.

Good on ya mate for taking the time to do this..I do a fair bit with these A doubles on linehaul, and we don't have to reverse them anywhere, but never is a long day, and with a very short dolly on ours, i always play with it, when i am waiting to load somewhere..As you say, you really have to familiarise yourself with how quickly that dolly moves, before getting to ambitious .Great work mate 👌 K.O.T

Thanks for your effort and knowledge sharing mate. i am trying to reverse Adouble, B trailer start going to one side and it becomes nightmare.

It’s really hard to get the hang of! Lately loaded I’ve been going pretty well. Unloaded though, she can fold up in a blink of an eye. Just time in the seat pulling your hair out for a while unfortunately.

Great video man. Cheers! BTW, any extra advice for shorter-tongue dollys?

Finally I can show these Americans who think they are slick reversing a single or a B Double that this can be done. My husband is a bit of a pro at it after plenty of practice at the port where they’ve got maybe 8” each side leeway to get them in the spot to get containers lifted off.
