    This Trucking Game may not be a view from inside the cab, but it's the most realistic physics that a truck makes where you get to understand how to truck operates in reverse. American Truck Simulator (ATS)and European Trucking Simulator 2 (ETS2) are the best trucking games that you get, and I recommend that you play them, but my game is created for people to just get used to reversing a trailer.
    I have heard from so many users that truck schools across the country use my game and use my videos to show their students how to back up.

    Hi David ,I'm happy to share the great news with you , that today I passed successfully my CDL driving test , after passing pre trip inspection and maneuvers last week, and will receive soon my CDL license in the mail. Thanks for tutorial videos, and giving us the free online seat time with you in your truck, I learn a lot from you. You made my tests easy.

    Thanks a lot Trucking Guru , This video and the rest of your tutorials, helped me a lot to learn Offset backing, Parallel Parking for my CDL Skills test and even my straight line backing has improved dramatically, I started using your technique of pointing and guiding the rear of the trailer with the front trailer, like if I am pushing the trailer with my hands forward, this was an AHA moment, a click that opened a door of David Crowley Magic to me , it's a simple and a fast method that is natural , intuitive and doesn't require too much calculations and thinking , you are my Super Hero, and my true Instructor, you deserve monthly donations from your viewers, your videos are so rich and generous, we have to show some appreciation and gratitude too. one million Thanks again.

    This is the method that makes the most sense to me, but I’m afraid that if I don’t do it the way the instructor wants me to that he is going to get frustrated with me. I am just not getting the offset (I’ve only done it twice, the first time the instructor was f-Ing off not paying attention to his class, taking calls, second time I had a better, more helpful instructor) but both times it didn’t seem to make any sense to me… hopefully tomorrow I will have some improvement. I want so badly to do well.

      You wouldn't do it like this, you would turn in what ever direction your space is in to get most of a straight back in. Do most of your maneuvering going forward if you have the option.

    Never underestimate any skill maneuver you learn in DMV test, you may need it one day, in my first Company road test the examiner asked me to do only one maneuver which is offset, he said no street driving, or any thing else, we want to make sure that you have control over the vehicle, and that you didn't buy the CDL license with cash... I passed :)

  • @doylee469
    @doylee469 2 роки тому +2

    I think on first offset you could have stopped, cranked the wheel in the direction to straighten out, then went from there. But you were rolling while cranking to straighten out, giving up way to much valuble space. Had you stopped you would have been good to go.Good vid pal, and thanks for it!
    Ps on second offset you turned right to hard and made a blind spot at the end, that wouldnt have been good for me. I would have slowly babied it while turning right so I still saw cones! You arent allowed to stick your head out of semi when backing up on road test! Also at second vid, at the start, i would have had it cranked before rolling!

      The only problem with practicing with 48 foot trailers is the axles are all the way to the rear and there is no trailer swing. Chances are, you are going to be hauling a 53' trailer once you pass you test and they have a swing you need to account for when backing. But you will be fine.

      Try this one out then. I can understand that video mean a lot to take in. Download the game then go to CDL levels click on offset And try it out for yourself. The rules of physics are still the same on the game as they are in a real world

    From now one I'll call you Backing Guru, I hope that you'll make a profile picture with a cartoonish representation of your face with long beard and glasses, this will be like a unique Brand image to your channel and you can use it as a logo in your videos or any publishing you do..i'm not kidding, think about it, Branding is very important in UA-cam. I don't like your channel logo, you are an Artisit, and you can come up with something better and more beautiful, this is just a feedback.

      @@MyTruckingSkills I found it in 360 View, Backing Tip # 31, I remember seeing before, you can add an Indian beard to it, or Hold a wisdom stick or a wizard bat, you can even use that face inside the videos, when you are looking from window, or in thumbnails, it will spice up your videos, with something funny.

    Toooo many graphics to follow, its like one using 500 words to describe what another can convey in 50 words,

      You are not supposed to watch every graphic at once, just one at a time. When you are driving, are you watching every mirror at once and the road and the speedo, do you have 10 eyes going at once??? No, stop criticising and think for a second. I am providing every view so you know what is important. Thanks for the comment.
