  • Basic CDL A Backing Fundamentals. Straight Line Backing, Angle Backing, and Offset Backing! After learning the CDL Pre-Trip Inspection, the next portion of our training is basic backing maneuvers. Students learn in their second week Straight Line Backing, Angle Backing, and Offset Backing (Right & Left). We teach it in this order as each skill progresses into the next. We cover the 90/Alley Dock in the following week.
    The video demonstrates on a toy truck all three maneuvers along with common errors and how to recover from them. This is an easier way to teach from a birds eye view before actually walking each student through these skills. Please do not attempt without proper professionals and safety training.
    This video is for general information only. It is not intended to cover all circumstances or to serve as a substitute for comprehensive safety training. Please note that the video is just an example. It is important to remember the type of driver you are, the company you work for and the type of truck you drive can impact how to back up a tractor-trailer. Be sure to consult your company guidelines or speak with your leader for more information on backing up a tractor-trailer.

    I knew if I watched enough videos, I’d finally discover one that made sense to me. This is excellent, “Where’s my trouble?”, “Turn toward your trouble.”, “Straighten your tractor before attempting an ‘S’ pull-up”, “Bring trailer tires to center.”, “What did you just do? That’s a parallel.”
    Fantastic video. I’m about to start CDL school in Illinois…I pray my instructor is half as good as you.

      I’ve been driving for a year and a half and still struggling greatly. I’m talking at times yes I get my trailer right in easily, but the biggest majority of the time it’s a struggle spending thirty minutes of my precious time trying to get my trailer in the space to park or drop my trailer. I am so glad that this video popped up on my feed. OMG, it explains everything to understanding why and how…thank you

      Been on my own now just over 2 weeks. Nobody taught me how to back like they should. Still suck. Lol getting better, but suck nonetheless. Thanks for these videos and hope i improve asap! Cause i enjoy the job until I have to dock or park at a busy truck stop. Lol . Been in tears myself and stressing out.

      Same here , I can't seem to even set up straight sometimes, I tend to set up with my trailer already crooked. I'm not recognizing early when the trailer is veeriing off. What seems straight to me the instructor says it's not. Any help with videos on mirror set up maybe etc ? I'm pretty discouraged at this point, instructors just keep saying same advice...any help would be nice...

      @@saidali5559 haha hell yeah brother I’ve been working a class a job since August. I’m a pretty good driver. Just keep practicing bro I’m telling you it will start to make sense. The main thing you gotta remember is you only need to turn that steering wheel a little bit. Otherwise you will lose control of the trailer. Take your time and remember to breathe. Let me know if I can help you out with anything I’ll do whatever I can for you man 👊🏻

  • @ricardonelson8263
    @ricardonelson8263 10 місяців тому +1

    When I was in training I could back up but was not comfortable I just felt like I could do better. It changed after I understood the relationship between the truck and the trailer. Before that, I used to chase the trailer too late and end up having to pull fwd and back up again. Once I understood what was happening everything that the instructor was saying became clear he was kinda saying it all along but not as detailed as I would want him to, he only said don't allow truck and trailer to bend too much but he didn't or couldn't explain why I don't know. I did my research to learn how the 5th wheel pressures different areas of the kingpin depending on the direction you turn the steering wheel. And with that, I know how to back up how to pull forward to make corrections.
