It helps little bit, but sometimes I have more space than what it shows from the skyview. Still helps to look it up before you go.

Don't get intimidated with the other truckers around you when you are backing up a trailer. Just stay focus of what you are doing and take your time. If your not sure and feel you gonna hit on the blind side, just go out and take a look. It wasn't forbidden. " do not be intimidated with the other truckers " especially if you're new driving a semi truck. Keep the rubber side down strappers and stay safe.✌

I come from farming, been driving tractors, trucks, machinery etc. since I was 8, and I feel like Im good at it. With my own car, I havent had an accident since I was 18, 25 years ago. But backing with a truck trailer is just a different animal. Places changes all the time, room can be tight, and the space you may think you have on the blind side, is not always there. That took me a couple smaller accidents to learn to get out of the truck. I drive different trucks, different trailers, long hauls, city, construction sites etc. Every day is different pretty much. Been driving for 10 months now, I thought driving vehicles was my thing, so I didnt have to go out and look. I learned to get out the hard way, so to other new drivers, know it takes time, and theres no shame in going slow and stepping out and look. The guy next to you may not, but he may also have backed to the same spot at the same place a thousand times.
@thetexan5264 ай бұрын
That's Schneider for yah, teaching em the hard way. Even after 33 years of trucking I still learn something new every day because every minute of every day is different from the previous day. With that said, there is some much unused front space that could have been easily utilized to 45 angle that trailer in instead of a hard 90 degrees. Remember folks you're driving that trailer in reverse as well as when you drive it forward. It's all in the set up before you drive that sucker to where it needs to be. By the way I started my career with Schneider when I was 21 and remember their training.

Being a yard jockey for 6-12 months will GREATLY help a driver with any backing maneuver I promise. Once you completely understand the way the trailer moves it will be a walk in the park. Your mirrors are your BEST FRIEND and set up determines whether your maneuver will be easy or difficult. You DO NOT want the trailer to pivot, that is for advance drivers. Pivot is for tighter spaces and you can only hold it temporarily then you MUST come out that turn immediately. Note…use all the space available when possible and if you hold it to long your doing it wrong, your going to over steering and miss your mark. Hope this helps anyone. Master yard jockey now driver 😅

I love this video, it's brilliant. I am 3 months into my job and faced this same situation the other night. And I did it!! With loads of trucks around and a a couple of pulll ups or three. What helped was this video AND the man on the ground whose eyes will tell you if you're doing great or about to hit something. I know we should be able to do this solo, and, yep, when you're on your own - you are definitely on your own and G.O.A.L. is so valuable. But sometimes, sometimes, you will actually know what to do, and have the confidence but with something in the way obstructing your progress. I saw this on the ground when a young lorry driver was trying to reverse into the back of Jessops in Norwich at night and surrounded by pedestrians but impeding his progress was an old fashioned Street lamp. I imagine many a truck driver has cursed that stupid lamp. So this young man, had to try it again and again and again getting round that street lampost. I had asked him if I could possibly help as a pair of eyes on the ground but he said he just had to deal with the street lamp. He did it in the end and I admired his determination, dexterity and knowledge. Am just sayin' sometimes you can be Ace of the Base but then gave to pull a rabbit out of the hat with knowledge, focus and determination.

Something that should be mentioned, if you have the tadems forward, you do not want to be closer than 4 feet from the trailers or building beside you. Tail swing will potentially hit anything beside you if you are too close and turn to sharp. Also, if there is room, starting at a 45° angle increases visibility of what is behind the tractor in the swing. A 90 degree back should only be used if there is no room to set up for a 45°. The way this was demonstrated was well done. I just thought I would add my opinion for what it is worth. It bothers me to see drivers to 90 degree backs when there is more than enough room to do a 45 or even straight back, all it does is flat spot the tires and tear up the gravel or pavement.

@@richardr2362 it depends on where and how it is done. Technically, they all need the same amount of room, because the size of the truck is the same, what changes is where the room is needed.

But in most cases a 90° back needs just as much, if not more foom in front of a spot to back into if the tractor is going to be straight when parked.

OK, Let me say this from the jump. It’s been YEARS since I backed a semi trailer. I’m not sayin that I was the world’s greatest driver…….however….if I was in the situation pictured here; I would swing up into that huge area in front of the “obstacle” truck. Instead of wearing flat spots on the trailer tires by sliding them sideways there looked to be plenty of room to be more in line with the space while having plenty of room to clear the other truck.

Schneider trained me. They did a great job & I love working for them. Honestly though, this is more space than 50% of the places I go. 🤣. And quite frankly, you probably won’t do 3 pull ups and 3 GOALS, maybe one of each. You’ll get used to it. I probably would’ve done a 90. A 90 gets your tail in the hole much faster because you’re starting much closer and so you now can use the forward space to get under your trailer. Last night I had less than this forward space, I set up for an 11:9 or 11:8:30, it didn’t work. I reset up and did a 90 and boom, just like that. I did a pull up because I needed to slide my tendems.

Stop pull up about 6-10 ft and turn left if your too close the trailer that's close to you or hard right for a few seconds to if your going to hit the trailer on the left side. Pull up as needed 🫣

Please don’t blow the horn when you’re at the truck stop. People are sleeping. Thanks.

My mentor never taught me any of this. Got me on long straight aways, and went to sleep knowing he was racking up money via me when he slept. Not bad really 🏆

Some trainers are sadistic and narcissistic and love to watch you flail and flop and squiggle and squirm … watch out for certain people always in ever situation

Amazon doesn't hire truck drivers.. All Amazon branded trailers are hailed by numerous companies. Mainly Chicagoland companies that lease their trucks from Ryder and Penske. Those Prime day cabs are even contractors

I was at the LaGrou facility in Des Plaines, IL on Wednesday. I heard it was tight, but man, she was TIGHT. The guys driving shorter wheelbase Volvo trucks, even just 18” shorter than my Western Star 5700xe, had a much easier time than me. LaGrou should really make a tad more room. It wouldn’t be too difficult for them. Their employees are very nice though.

the only thing I’m confused about is which way to turn. I always get my left & right mixed up.
@raymondnelson45862 жыл бұрын
When backing a trailer it’s the opposite of the tractor. Turn to the right, the trailer goes to the left. And turn the wheel to the left the trailer goes to the right. If unsure always ask for help.
@MrEdouble8502 жыл бұрын
What I do is, before I start backing, I create a mental picture of where I want the trailer to go. So if it’s gotta go left, I give it a little right to see how it’s moving, then make small adjustments along the way.

I’ve been driving for like 7 months and I’m so used to backing the trailer that I mix up lefts and rights sometimes lol. But the reason the trailer goes opposite of the direction u point the steering whee is due to the 5th wheel/ kingpin pivot motion. So when ur turning the wheel to the right, ur making the truck go to the right, but because of the 5th wheel, this causes the kingpin to push the trailer to the opposite direction like a pivot point

What does a seat belt do other then limit head turning...
