    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.

    I've never driven a truck but I find myself mesmerized by the detail and concentration required to position these trucks in narrow spaces.

    In 35 years of trucking, I seldom parked in rest areas longer than an hour. Enough to catch a nap, do paperwork and use the bathroom. Rule of thumb never park in a place that has 4 wheelers. I've known drivers robbed and even killed by criminals. In truck stops, 4 wheelers driving in truck packing are usually watched by truckers as it is not usual for them to be there also most truck stops have some measure of security to keep the lot lizards out. Not so with rest areas.

    I've been avoiding rest areas since I've only seen someone park in one where there were 3 spaces available and they just chose the middle. Since I just drive local I don't really need a rest area, and when I see them at 7am they are so crowded that trucks are parked on both ramps as well. This video gave me some confidence on practicing them now.

  • @wanderingfido
    @wanderingfido Год назад +1

    I'm figuring out, by playing ATS, that the nine-axle lowboy needs your truck squared _plus one-half truck length_ . For when you approach from the left or the right of a target parking spot in front of you. You square up the truck plus half-a-length in front of the truck on the left or the right corner of the target.

    I cannot see any way to get wide enough for me to get into one of these spaces this way at this rest stop and do not understand how some of these other drivers have done it.
    Seriously, I was tires on the curb wide when I started.

    That park before the parallel park, I felt you “cheated” by asking the nearby truck to back up. I’m in a utility with a trailer and often find that cars park close to you and then go off to the shops. No one to wake up. If you had to back up from that position, you cant see what’s on the far side of your trailer. Am I going to scrape the trailer on the right as I back up and am I just wedging myself deeper?

    NEVER use a spotter. If they screw up and you hit something, its still your fault. Also, sometimes they think they're helping, then are dumb enough to stand behind the truck instead of off the right front. Then you're at risk of running them over.
