I need to get some semi toys so I can better explain alley docking to some of the new drivers. Where did you buy yours? The situation I'm in now at work is we have a lot of new drivers that are career truckers.......for decades they have been hauling doubles. None of them are used to backing in 53 foot trailers. I've been trying to assist them while they get acclimated to it.
Most of the toy tractors trailer came from Amazon. The UPS was purchased when I worked for UPS. You will have to search the internet for quality toys tractor trailers. Even the ones from Amazon is no longer available. You are dedicated and will locate them.
@@truckerstevecdlinstructor those will demonstrate the techniques much better than the office supplies I used lol. Thank you sir. I've been asked to become one of the certified drive trainers at my job now that I am one year in. They believe I'll be good at it because I like to help people. But I'm leaning the other way. I got into trucking to not have to deal with so many people anymore. I was in retail management before this. I am burned out with customer service and training team members.
Thank you for this! This happened to me today while training
You're so welcome!
