Truck Backing Episode 6 | The Wheelbarrow Effect | This stop made a student threaten to quit

[@legittrap]

Your channel is pure gold!! From the offset law, pushing corners (no opposites), setups, & the wheel barrel analogy Thank You 🙏

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

Thank You for the compliment! And, you're welcome! Glad you watched them all.

[@albertarseneau848]

NEW DRIVERS! Pay attention, this man is giving you the "secret formula " Fail to plan...plan to fail. I'm sharing this with every new driver I meet in film and TV driving. We work in tight areas. Thanks, keep on trucking

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

@@albertarseneau848 thanks for the feedback!

[@TheAlchemistDavid]

Man, I am really good at performing these maneuvers while I’m surveying the area and in my mind. But as soon as I’m behind the wheel, shit changes. 🤣🤣. But I’ve been improving though. Thanks for sharing and always. 💪🏾

[@DestinationTakeover.]

I agree! I’m like ummmm that didn’t go as I thought lol. I’m improving as well and that’s all that counts.

[@fast_traffick_report]

Now this is a professional truck driver!!!

[@pxil9333]

Hey Geezer...your back! Once again excellent production (inc music) visuals, commentary...& most importantly...hands on tutorial. You're on a winner, & i don't even think you yourself know it, lol. Keep up the gd work lad!

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

Thank You brother!

[@806Denis]

good cpntents man, wish i was as good as you are in backing, seems i always end up over steering lol.

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

Thank You! You'll get there.

[@theotherhalfoftheang]

I recently failed my cdl test because i wasn't able to perform a good offset parking, i don't manage to understand how the trailer behaves while backing and i don't seem to understand what my instructor is telling me, these videos are a brtter approach of what i need to understand, hopefully i get it, i have a new drive test this comming 26th, wish me luck. Thanks for the videos, i will watch them over and over until they make full sense to me.

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

Develop an awareness of where your trailer is pointing at all times, and where your trailer tires are on the ground..where it is pointing is where the tires are currently going. We point the trailer by moving the front of it. The back of the trailer moves only as a result of the front of the trailer moving. I try to show that with different camera angles. The only connection your tractor has with the trailer is at the kingpin. While traveling in reverse with your hand at the top of the steering wheel, the front of the trailer moves in the direction you move your hand. Good Luck with everything!

[@Khadersheriff]

​@@AdvancedTruckBacking😮😮😢😩😭😭 That beautiful info brings me to tears sir.

[@staticloc5514]

I have my CDL license, do u do backing training?​@AdvancedTruckBacking

[@Zthreve]

I like the relaxing music while you are backing.

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@peterassel562]

I've been driving 22 years now in Australia and that sort of yard is the reason the new guys give up. Here they'd expect you to get a B-Double in there which is okay, but how hard is it to keep your yard safe for the truckers? Reversing into a dark dock is not easy.

[@claudelabarre8633]

Wow ! That was spectacular ! One day, I'll be that good ... thank you for sharing ; good to have you back and God bless !

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

Thanks Claude!

[@_K_W]

It’s almost worth putting a go pro on the back of the trailer and watching the live view when you have a backing like this.

[@bigg746]

Although im not a truck driver in real life your tips have helped me in American truck simulator 👍🏾

[@TrainingWheelTrucker]

Best backing instruction videos ever for this prospective driver. Your analogies, references and perspective are key in understanding the fundamentals of safe, accurate and proper backing.

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

Thank you! Good Luck with everything!

I’m having my skills test next Friday an I’ve been watching videos because my training session is finish, an I can’t practice because I don’t have access to a truck so watching you videos will help me.

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

You got this! Good Luck!

[@tearonfearon4826]

Thank you, I’m doing this to give my son a better life. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@Cvtap_Pros]

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and expertise on backing a trailer truck. As someone who is new to the industry, your videos have been an invaluable resource in helping me improve my skills and confidence on the road. Your clear and concise explanations make it easy to understand the concepts and techniques involved, and your tips and tricks have saved me from countless mistakes and frustrations. Keep up the fantastic work - you're making a real difference in the lives of drivers everywhere!

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

Thank You Zenny!

[@azteknomco2432]

Wow ! great backing and great production as always ! Many thanks !

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

Thank you! You're welcome!

[@seleckt6600]

Seems like many of the problematic portions of things like this could be mitigated very simply and very cheaply by the property owners. There are two docks inside the building, which are damn near invisible when you're 75' in front of it, backing in, and it's obscured by the shadows. Invest $100 in an LED strip along the guide rails. This gives a quite literal glowing line to follow no matter the light conditions. Can even get creative and make one dock red and one dock blue or something. "Pull into the red dock".

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

I agree completely. I have been to a few places with good lighting, but most don't care.

[@tbag-2224]

Why are the docks inside a building? I've never seen anything like this

[@wrath231]

It's a cost issue, but definitely a no-brainer in 2024 to have led strips everywhere

[@whatwouldyoudo64]

Another outstanding video, thank you 🙏

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

Thanks again! Good Luck with everything.

[@doc9448]

The music at the end 💀 I didn't think you were chill like that 😭 (Thanks for the video)

[@mohamedsadik8210]

Great video, I like the different angles, the wheelbarrow effect demonstration, under trailer view that shows the articulation angle and steering technique, mirrors, good commentary and music, the only thing missing is drone view, please stop that disclaimer intro, no one will sue you, you can include it in the description box. thanks for your time and effort.

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

Thanks for the feedback Mohamed! I will consider those suggestions.

Whoa, no way. I was just there like 2 weeks ago! Thank God it's not one of my regular stops. Its a nightmare with the full size sleeper, but boy was I happy I had it. Took them almost 5 hours to load me!

Complete control I salute u

[@DDMuvaTrucka]

I’m learning on a flat bed…do the same rules apply as far as the front corners points the way the glad bed will roll

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

Yes the same rules apply. The front corners are what we move, but see the entire length of the trailer, from front to back and beyond. where it points is where it rolls.

[@mannyjr8979]

The ending pumps u up like hey its easy lol

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

It will get easier.

[@djohnson1227]

@@AdvancedTruckBacking Can you add the song name and artist. . . this is good pump me up music

[@billgabriel4307]

Great instructions for your day cab although many principles still apply to large sleeper tractors. Can you demonstrate with a sleeper tractor, like Volvo 760 and a 53 ft trailer?

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

the physics are the same. You will just need a little more forward space with a sleeper. and the steering wheel may not turn as sharply as with the day cab. Which means the tractor will get back in front of the trailer a little slower.

No worries..appreciate the thought. Just watch my playlist And the advertisements and I'll get a little something. LOL

[@medfurd]

Thanks for making these videos, they've helped a lot and I enjoy them immensely! I need to learn and understand things technically rather than using a system that just gets you from A to Z without also explaining how everything in between works. Been driving at my first job for a couple months, it's mostly city and I love it, but most of my backing is in the dark or at my warehouse with a dark covered dock that faces north and has poor visibility. When I get back in the afternoon, the sun is shining on the tractor and into the mirrors, and I can't really see well. Some days are fine but others I keep making the same mistakes and it's quite frustrating. Any tips?

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

You're welcome! Without seeing the actual mistakes you keep making I can't really prescribe anything specific. But, watch the videos again in order. I try to cover all the basics.

[@medfurd]

[@Grunttamer]

I love how it could be 10x easier if these guys kept the yard clean. It’s 90% trash sitting out there.

[@moethedeaf2746]

I am a 62 year old independent owner operator pulling a flatbed. The question for me is not whether I can do it or not. As soon as they explain to me that I need to go in there to either pick up or drop off, I will tell them to clear off the yard or I will just drive off. I don't mind facilities that are tight in space and no options but this places was designed and built perfectly. It is whoever runs this place that decided to give the drivers hard times. There is a reason why I am an independent owner operator - to spit in the face of these idiots. They will probably be standing around to make the poor driver more nervous. But up until you are your own boss, that is the unnecessary garbage you have to deal with. Good luck.

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

Being an Owner op would definitely have advantages. I won't hesitate to have someone move something if I can't get in safely. Thanks Moe.

[@garrymillstones517]

That yard is ridiculous. That’s setting up drivers to fail.

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

Unfortunately, most companies don't care about making life easy for the truck drivers.

Honestly we need a Union to put a stop to these shippers BS docks with safety hazards in the way for carriers they need to be fine if they don’t clean their yards up nation wide I been saying this for years there would be way better facilities if this was a real thing you better believe they will have nothing in the way after a heavy fine

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

no it does not.

[@marknelson8435]

The music in the second half makes it seem like the ballet that it is.

[@TheNorsewarlord]

You can use magnetic lights under the bumpers to help guide you

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

I like that idea!

[@thelightwavs]

That’s a great idea! You can also use those same type of lights on both sides of the dock to help you back in straight and give you a point of reference to aim for. You knocked it out of the park with no crutch though! Awesome job!

Sounds like you're not getting back to the front of the trailer soon enough Rayj. Watch the playlist a few times.

[@jondoh2226]

Episode 11

[@Final-Ts]

Impressive driving and instruction! However... why do some of these businesses keep a lot like a War Zone?? Also, why do some of these places have buildings and lots constructed that are unfavorable to drivers? I can understand that some locations might be old buildings and they just have to "make due". But they can't ALL be old buildings with crazy set-ups like that.

[@AdvancedTruckBacking]

Thanks! And most places are not concerned about making life easier for the truck drivers. Not all places have crazy setups.. some cities more so than others.. St. Louis area has a lot of older buildings. As do Chicago, Boston, Pittsburgh and many others.
