I just got back home after getting my CDL at Knight CDL Academy. Thank you so much for this and your other videos. They were constantly in rotation for me and REALLY helped me with my skills and my testing. The pre-trip video was also indispensable. My whole class was watching it non-stop!
Great school, best experience ever. The instructors are top notch. They really help you to do your best and as long as you listen and follow the recipe, you will pass. This is Jodi from July 5, class...
sorry to be so offtopic but does anyone know a tool to log back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly lost the account password. I love any tips you can offer me.
So im coming down to get my cdl back, pretty excited. As im watching these guys do this in my head im like straighten the wheel! Its like back seat driving over here🤣
Thanks Marie Harrop and anyone who helped you to make this nice production, Excellent video, very good reference points, interesting drone shots, side views, and more important how the trailer bend or straight lines look on flat and convex mirrors.
This video helped me more than the useless CDL class i took here in Fontana. They basically taught you all the wrong ways to do it. Jacknife the trailer to do every skill smh
Just graduated from this awesome school and I am currently uploading two videos on what to expect and my experience going through the program !!! I start on the job training this Monday !!
RPA and Survival we are so proud of your accomplishments! As you know the key word to the school is Listen. If you listen to your instructors you can do it! Practicing and studying the pre trip is so very important to be successful in this course! WELCOME TO KNIGHT TRANSPORTATION.
Thank you for ur kindness and show us the best skill of truck trailer driving but i hope also u explain to us how many time to turn the steeling wheel to left and right ,,
@@marieharrop4066 yes I passed / but from my understanding cr England want a contract before you get hired on with them I was just fixing to go with them until I get a email saying that I would be contacted with them for so many months oh hell naw go somewhere else but where I'm free to leave
Lionel Richie Sings Really Sad Lirys stand for LEFT, RIGHT, STRAIGHT, RIGHT, STRAIGHT, LEFT. First the steer to the LEFT until you see a pizza slice in the landing gear (45°), then to the RIGHT until you see the pizza slice, then to put STRAIGHT the truck and the trailer, then the steer to the RIGHT (45°), again STRAIGHT to align the truck and the trailer, RIGHT the steer and see the pizza slice, STRAIGHT the truck and the trailer and finally LEFT the steer. It's a tip in order to remember the secuence of the steer and the MOMENT to change its direction and when to align the truck and the trailer.
So, the only problem with these videos is that they are specific to this practice area. You talk about lining wheels and other parts up to seams in the concrete. That's not practical to every situation. If you're going to make an instructional video you need to explain what a driver would actually be looking at. Not cut lines on a concrete pad where you practice.
The simple answer here is to use what’s available. That is, concrete or asphalt seams, tire marks left from previous trucks, and most of all, use your imagination to stretch the yellow lines beyond their endpoints. If that doesn’t work, try dropping a glove or bean bag to help guide you in. The biggest hurdle you will face is your ego and trying to impress others. Good luck.

Thank you but I have to point the production towards Joe Harrop. These videos are all him. I just flew drone in some pretty good winds that morning.

I agree
You would understand it if you went to the school.
