He’s old school this young man giving real life pro veteran backing tractor trailer truck tips with precise exact instructions and I love every min of this video
Pretty much all of these backing vidoes teaches you how to back, but doesn't explain the concept behind it. Like why do you steer left to go right, & steer right to go left. That is because you're pushing the trailer, when you're reversing, instead of pulling when you're going forward. Confused? Take any object, phone, cigarette box, eraser. Push it with your finger so that it swing to the left/right.
It's all about the placement of your tandem. It doesn't matter where the front of your tractor is, left, center, right, wherever. Blindside backing is same as normal backing. It's just harder cuz you can't see, that's all. Hence blindside. But still possible if you get out & look, notice your position, mentally keep track of your trailer & tractor as you navigate into your dock. Go slow.
If you're at a truck stop, don't be afraid to ask a fellow driver to help you. Get his phone #, put him on speaker, so you can hear his instructions.
Loved the tip about aligning the drive tires with the center of the dock or parking space 😊
Thank you 🙏 for sharing
It's weird how backing over the left is easy, but over the right it gets tricky really fast
Because as a normal car driver you are used to it and the position of the driver seat too
Good Video, not what I was looking for though,
Working @ sysco it was a mission backing into everywhere
That is where I learned to back. I was backing some insane places. It helps that I backed up 15 to 25 times a day. Now working in freight, I have 0 issues backing
First 90 seconds were fabulous. After that, not so good.
Easy docking in a yard with lots of space.
Thanks yes it does!
Takes about 2 years to master it
Is that Tom Selleck narrating this video???
I hope the editor of this video has a back up plan.
Put it in R and watch thing's going away

Or. Don't Block everything while you waddle your way to open the doors. Open your doors and slide your tandems at a 90⁰ so you're not blocking all of the other drivers. Then make your back.. good grief
