Backing tip# 29 - Just a typical everyday back!!

[@ziakhan5798]

No matter what , first 3 months in trucking, You yell. You swet. You cry . It's not easy at all.

Thanks I’m at the point where I lost my confidence and wanted to quit

😭😭😭😭😭

[@lalorivera80]

The worst is other drivers watching you suffering trying to park it right and they are laughing because you are struggling smdh!

[@sophiekeeling2637]

julio arana don’t quit! The pie is right over the hump! You got this! I’m training to be a hostler driver. Hopefully today I will finally successfully test out!

[@v.torres-amos9906]

My mentor doesn't know how to backup well and tells me the wrong way and other drivers have to help me sometimes while my mentor is in the truck. I watched 3 of your videos and successfully backed up 10 times by myself I backup better than my mentor. I had to tell her to be quiet bc she began steering me wrong...and I got it. Thank You!!!!!! You break it down perfectly in all of your videos.

[@MyTruckingSkills]

That's fantastic to hear I was able to help you. Sad that your trainer was not though. The blind leading the blind, happens way to much.

[@carlosherrerarocha1869]

I am Brazilian, truck driver in Spain, thanks for your gifts, they help me a lot, I am new to the profission

[@PantherCoupe]

Your videos have helped me gain more understanding of how the trailer reacts when backing, Im a new LTL driver in Atlanta. I need all the knowledge of backing a 53’ trailer I can get, thanks again for sharing your knowledge and experience!

[@GigMyRig]

Thanks for your heart and desire to help those of us that want and need the help. You're the best, David!

Than you I love you too In JESUS name

[@MIDWAYSUPERMAN]

Thanks for helping. Sometimes us old school drivers could use a refresher course. Been in this life 40+ years and you're always in a learning curve. Again thanks

[@MIDWAYSUPERMAN]

Well Austin good thing you don't matter. Just couldn't stand a compliment that wasn't coming your way. Have safe travels sir. Happy trails everyone.

[@mohamedsadik8210]

Thanks so much for your help, you are a very good teacher , very good at using words and images, your videos are so rich , to the point that makes me not tired or bored to replay them again and again.

[@MyTruckingSkills]

I'm so happy you like them!!

[@CrispCat_]

old video but it's been very helpful. 4 months driving and i clipped a truck a few weeks ago at a pilot and now i have zero confidence when backing to park for my break. oddly enough most of my deliveries have me backing into warehouses and apart from not being able to see at all due to the changes in light, i do those rather easily.

[@mussiezeru593]

I like your back up tricks man . Thank you.

[@mohamedsadik8210]

This is educative and entertaining in the same time, thanks a lot for the valuable tips and tricks.👍👍😍

[@raahgeer7840]

Thanks a lot David. I really forward to your dock backing videos.

[@paullecouteur4427]

Nice to be able to see the painted lines... no snow :) I can understand and appreciate your years of experience. You are assessing the big picture in each situation as you pull into a terminal yard from the get go. Open minded green horn drivers love getting this kind of info, the veterans not so much (I find a lot of seasoned drivers have the attitude of.... "I've been driving X amount of years and you'll never teach me anything new"). My brother is like that.

[@Maney3316]

Thanks for helping me get my steering straight alot of videos show you how the trailer moves and how its done outside the tractor but to see the steering was key for me thank you

[@jerrychristensen9219]

Awesome video ! The videos give me more understanding of backing thanks for taking time to put video together !!!

[@YeeeeeHaaaaa]

Another great video of yours and I’m sure others will agree. I love your setup on the screen with the mirrors and how you explain in detail everything. Just like I heard you say that you pulled up two spots past since your axles on the trailer were all the way back. Also like when you said notice my trailer tires aren’t parallel to the lines and I will pull up to straighten out. Other people’s videos won’t have those crucial details. You can have two people standing next to each other that know the same exact things. The thing is one can teach and the other can’t. From all of us to you...thanks for the extra effort to explain in your videos. Most other videos just show us that they back up and say there...lol I’m like ok but how and why and you turned when because of what. lol

[@victormunoz6282]

Thank you for the tips, as a new driver it really helps a lot

I’ve been driving two years and I’m still trying to figure out when to start chasing the trailer. I’m always too late but when I cut it too early I have to keep jackknifing haha. It all works out though.

[@ahmedbashir5130]

Thank you so much for the help Thanks again please more

[@misioo8841]

Very helpful. Thanks a lot for your videos

[@austinknox]

Biggest tip I can give a new driver is always have your tandoms in the furthest back position while you're backing and always sight side back.... Just makes it simple. *Edit* Very Nice video BTW

[@ordonezfamily343]

very powerfull your class,,,

[@edbrock8053]

Thank you! My trainer, (just finished my first week!) has very little patience. I never get any comment about what I’ve done right, just criticism about what I’ve screwed up, which is something on a daily basis as a newbie. How can I not get frustrated as a newbie???

0:42-1:37 Does the trailer need to be perfectly straight when pulling up along side the parking spot before turning the tractor to the 3:00 position?

No, but it certainly helps when it is

Good job 👍 are you still driving 🤔

[@tps55555]

It’s difficult learning the “rules“ of backing and parking when everyone has different rules. Even the same truck driver has different rules in different videos. Difficult.

[@brymanable]

how do you correct & Keep your Trailer straight in the hole when backing in ?

[@bobyang3350]

skill !

[@merttt1923]

Could you make a video at rest area with tight space parking between 2 trucks . Sometimes i feel like not enough space to take it wide and feel like trailer might hit the truck on the right or left

[@munirahmad9917]

How do you know when to stop when you are pulling on the left for your back??

[@edgarmartinez963]

The mirrors are in wrong side on the video....si it's a lot confusion... in the conveys mirrors, t's like you are parking in the blind side.. Students comments don't know..... !!wow !! Where is the big space !!! Side of the trailer !!!!

[@MyTruckingSkills]

What are talking about, I believe I have the ability to make a mistake when making these videos. But i have not this time. The mirrors are good. I have reversed them like if you're sitting in the driver's seat. The convex mirrors are good too. The main view is no reversed showing what it could be when looking out the window. I am sorry that it is confusing for you. Just read the comments and you can see that I am not confusing most.

[@neudistabares7450]

Great....how do you back in up into a dock at open space with out lines.or mark.

[@MyTruckingSkills]

Trial and error. Usually there is something to be parallel to.

The more you play the game, the easier it will be for you. I have tons of people tell me that.

[@deesplash7087]

I’m like 7 months in about, and backing pretty much from the second day of driving with my trainer was/ is the only thing that makes my anxiety flare up. Also driving in any weather that may require chains , but I do regional now and stick to south eastern states

[@americasspeechestheirpurpo4620]

Hello. May I ask you if your semi truck is standard or automatic?

[@logalogalog]

It MUST be automatic. Watch his hands on the wheel. You never lose site of them. You would see his right hand constantly disappearing from the frame to shift if he were driving manual.

[@MyTruckingSkills]

Actually, that is a manual. It's an International. But I do move into an auto automatic soon after that.

[@logalogalog]

@@MyTruckingSkills I stand corrected.

[@dchawk81]

@@MyTruckingSkills That's obviously a Cascadia with the stalk controls. I drove one for 5 years. I know the steering wheel, the buttons, the knobs, the clearance lights, the sleeper roofline, everything. You apparently were already "upgraded" by then.
