Know your angles when backing

[@bjack342]

Great job, as always you Put a lot of thought into Your videos, you have helped thousands of Drivers. God bless you and your family. Thank you for using your skills To , help your fellow drivers 👍👍👍.

[@MyTruckingSkills]

What a wonderful comment, thank you.

[@mohamedsadik8210]

WOW...Amazing..I like your angle degrees animations, it's similar to what goes in my mind too when I'm backing, it's all about angles, geometry and perspective, I'm glad that you talk about the articulation angle, that determines the tires travel line, the only trainers that mention it a lot is you David and Scott Zane.

[@ndayambajepascal9201]

Many thanks sir. Mathematics are always coming. Dear ,you have contributed too much in giving us new skills to drive the trucks. May Good bless you and yours.

[@joshuaa446]

The Steer tire in between the Wheel turning, the various angles on the equipment to calculate, the view from both side mirrors... Your approach to video presentation is a marvel.

[@vibenglish]

This is probably the best video I've ever seen, and it also works when you go into a gas station

[@mselim-o7p]

Thank you very much indeed!!! Very useful and easy to understand with geometry!!! Trucking is not science but geometry improves the operation mentality 👏👏👏🙏

[@johnpapa8681]

Good video. I was lucky. When I was young, I worked as a yard spotter. I went backwards almost as much as forward. I'd bump a dock numerous times a day. This experience really helped me when I started driving over the road.

[@acetrubleshooter86]

These videos are unlike anything any school has been capable of producing, AMAZING.

Man you are the best period. Grateful for your help

Thank you sir! I was thinking of you last night. I had a hard back in the dark of course!! I was thinking now how would my backing teacher do this. Thanks again you have taught me so much.

[@johncastano2290]

Thx bro you're a BEAST at parking i hope i get there some day ive been driving for over 4 months and still struggling on my backing but thx for your videos they have helped me alot. 👍🏼😉👍🏼

[@canceraxe1447]

The best video ever for me! I wish you made this video while back. Thank you so much. Now I understood better

[@someguyfromtheinternet5102]

Throwing in the protractor visual... was amazing.

[@jellybean4183]

I know you love talking degrees and angles and it works great, but consider describing it in a clock manner too. Ex: make a right until 2 o clock, straighten out until 12 o clock. I think it would make it much simpler. Degrees are more accurate but the clock angles are more memorable for me.

[@MyTruckingSkills]

Great suggestion!

[@joybrown8644]

Trying to get an idea of how (from an above angle) to pull a travel trailer as a newbie. Couldn’t find anything from that angle. Love how you show the starting wheel at the same time. I find myself trying to steer it while watching. Trying to understand why and when to go right or left because it seems counter intuitive.

[@misaac9817]

I'm speechless. You're awesome bro.👍👍👍👍

This move that you show us already, can use when we start the move since the blind side? I hope you understand my bad English.

[@windofheaven07]

I know it's a nuts idea, but what do you think about affixing (with Velcro tape or something) a small hand compass on the dash while practicing your backs. I'm a sailboat captain getting into the industry for the first time, so I can't help myself. This is how I think! Basically determine a relative bearing to your present position dead ahead while setting up, then steering to that bearing until you hit it. Just during the early days until you're proficient enough not to need it anymore.

[@MyTruckingSkills]

Now...I'm not going to say flat out that this is a bad idea, is just a bit overkill. But I liked your initiative. Adding a compass to that mix would mean you are looking at your mirrors less. By the time you take your eyes off the mirrors, analyze your compass then look back at your mirrors you are in a different position. Your eyes need to be watching the trailer as much as possible especially when doing a straight back and when you are jackknifed sticking your head out the window. If you keep the steering straight you will keep the same barring but your trailer will jkife. Setting up using a compass...I just don't think it's a good idea, you need to be looking out the window at stuff that you could be hitting. Good luck though with your new career, I'm excited for you.

[@windofheaven07]

@@MyTruckingSkills Thanks, David. Yeah, makes sense for sure.

[@shawntrucking4517]

Dry Vans and refers have it so easy with backing I pull a 9 axle steel oversized flatbed backing is way different

That is different alright

How would you do this if the spots angled at 45 degrees? Thanks for the videos!

[@jeffreymacdonald5002]

Can I apply any of these techniques to a travel trailer i use to have a small 17 foot trailer backed it up no problem , but with my new 29 foot travel trailer ( not 5th wheel) it has thrown me off.

[@jorgerigorivera9544]

Mister Job, I would like to be able to understand the video, but I do not understand English, I speak Spanish, you could leave an option in your videos so that they see the subtitles that can be read in Spanish, I would really appreciate it. Blessings to you. Thank you.

why turning needs left to left, right to right?

How can we check our angle ? How will we know that we are in 130 degree if the area is open space

[@misaac9817]

Sir please make your more videos with same method

[@raybin2086]

Do you turn the steering wheel gradually or completely before you start your turn?

[@MyTruckingSkills]

Complete turn

[@darcyfunk]

Great job making this video! Just curious, what software did you use please? What drone do you use? Thanks.

I use Adobe Premiere pro, aftereffects, Photoshop and illustrator. And I use a DJI Mavic Air. And a ton of GoPro cameras.

If only steering wheels had an angle gauge, shouldn't be that hard to figure out.
