I’m truck driver almost 6 years and always like to watch your skills thanks Man U are doin a very great job to all the new drivers and also the experience one’s thanks again and again 🙌
Same here, I've been driving for 4 years, & I've been watching David's videos since I first started driving. Thank you, David for all of your videos. You've been my best teacher
Been doing this 37 years myself, and when backing, the trick is to decrease the Hard angle as much as possible, this causes less wear and rear on the tires, less tension stress on the air lines, and gives a straighter view of the parking space, thus decreasing the possibilities of incidents !
@@MyTruckingSkills you're welcome, you've done a great service, especially for us new guys. You gave me mote confidence, & knowledge to keep getting better, & I appreciate you very much. God uses people in strange ways, & may God bless you.
Stay close to the trucks on the side of the space,,, when the nose of your tractor passes the nose of the trailer just past the parking space and the turn real hard to the right go out about 10 feet then turn hard and quick to the left until you see the back of your trailer angled toward the parking spot, then maneuver it into the Space !
When I was doing the 90s at school we didn't have trailers lined up to our spot. So we were able to line up real close to our hole. So when you said to NOT line up real close to the other trucks I was confused. But it makes sense now, and that I'd want to give my trailer some more space from the parked trucks.
I reached level 21 in your app three months of practice and I already have my commercial driving license, thank you very much for the help and advice in your videos
Thanks for that video, I am about to go into trucking in a couple of weeks, and need all the information that I can get help me out on the for the very first time driving a truck.
The best method doesn't have you jack knifing the truck. If you turn your steering wheel all the way to one side, you lose the amount of control you have. You should use more room to the left side of the whole you're parking in, and try to keep the wheels from locking out to one side or the other.
Your vids are great for freight haulers with tandems, please do spread axle trailers in your instructions. I think you will find that much of your instruction goes out the window with a spread.
In your opinion would you think that 4 axle trailer works in the same manor as a spread axle? Meaning that the dragging/pivot point of the trailer is the very center of the axles?
@@MyTruckingSkills it not about the pivot point, its that a loaded spread axle trailer can't pivot. By the time you are jacked 90 degrees the truck just won't move. Literally, prevent you from going any further. The engine may even stall. If you try forcing it, you could blow a tire, rip the tread off, or even severely damage the suspension. Always, tandem or spread, stay close to the row. When the nose of your truck passes the space turn away 45 degrees. When you're aligned with your trailer, stop. Turn your wheel hard to the right then back up. When the cab is parallel to the row, turn the wheel hard left. Then correct as needed. Provided you have the space and tandems at 41ft, you might get it in in one shot.
What’s with this type of backing ? I’m seeing this more & more. It’s stupid ! I’d like to see you try this with a long wheel base tractor. Only works with short Freightliners
On a dual axle trailer what is the pivoting wheel? Also what about a tri axle? I never know what wheel to watch, have you got a video explaining it, thanks
Why not do a 90/90 back then or a modified 90/90? 90 degree backing just seems more dangerous to me, you need to jackknife the trailer to get it in which is probably not the best way to teach backing at a truck stop.
This is a game and not reality, there a big difference and point of view, not every area you go would be set up or spacious.... Helpful but 50/50. If you wanted that trailer at your first attempt pulling so close to the left..it would have go in by jus sliding your tandoms all the way to the rear...reducing the overhang...
This was thing I was waiting for that trailer need to be get straight before entering the spot ... thanks for teaching.. I didn’t knew u already had video for this .. thanks .. can u make actual video with tractor trailer.. 3rd type 90 degree
Can you give me some more information please? What's going on?. Do you have the latest update of the game? If so, click on restore purchases in the settings
@@MyTruckingSkills I gotcha. I apologize if I came across as being a troll. I Should have checked your other videos. I think your video style is very helpful and I am subscribing. Thank you for posting.

Ya, it's what we are used to. The truck I drive has a 232 inch (589cm) wheel base. I measure from the center of the front axle to the center of the drive asked l axles. That's what Google says for me to measure lol.

This video is very confusing.. you want to move two parking spaces up from your parking slip that you're trying to get into.. when your shoulder is lined up from the second truck, you have to cut the truck to the right until straight and then cut to the left.. until you're straight and Once your pivot is into your parking slip then that when you cut a little to the right so your into the parking slip and the cut left to get the truck straight to do your straight line backing... in this video, you're moving too far up from your parking slip.. and on the right side, you have a lot of space. You dont need to be far away from your parking space that you're trying to get into
What are your talking about James?? I told you I've nearly 20 years driving a truck, not gaming. I picked this little hobby last year. I said that 29 years didn't matter when it comes to telling me if this game would or would not help new drivers because you have never tested this game for yourself to have any opinion. I have, and people are learning from it. So yes Po' Boy Truckin, I have many years driving, I made this game so I could help out as many new drivers as I could.
Nope, you are not understanding me. It doesn't matter how many years you have driven, you can't say for sure that my game does not help people. That was your original statement and was stupid. Because you haven't not done the testing and compared. That's all I'm saying, you may even be better at backing then me, I doubt it, but that doesn't really matter. A 100 people with with 50 years experience driving who never has played my game can not say that my game did not help people because they have been played it... You annoy me James, you don't read anything properly. I'm going to ban you from commenting on my videos in a few hours, to give you time to read this, you have been nothing but disrespectful to me since your first comment.
James is probably banned by now, but I have to say he is definitely experienced ... at wearing flip flops and never using G.O.A.L and driving stupid fast through truck stops blaring his horn to make himself feel better. Whatever ... as a former instructor I always made sure my students saw videos made by My Trucking Skills. And even as an experienced driver he still helps me to this day. No matter how much experience someone thinks they have, there is always that unique and new situation laying around the corner, just waiting to nail some complacent super trucker like James. I don’t want to be that guy, so I watch these videos. Last night I learned a new trick from his game, which will help me at a particular customer that is a pain in the neck in L.A. I hope I get a chance to meet My Trucking Skills in real life on the road out there just to be able to shake his hand and show my gratitude for these videos.

Good Advice.
I have been backing for one week, and the best thing you can do to pass this ridiculous scenario dmv is testing is f the tires completely
@@yourfinalhiringagency3890 let us all know how that works out for you ...
@@simpleman8937 it’s working really well, should be testing soon bud. Normally get it with only a single pull up for a correction
@@yourfinalhiringagency3890 congrats,,,,, it's all about the angle of attack !

My trainer saw me watching one of your videos and asked me to send him the link. He was an excellent trainer. You are the GOAT.
GOAT?
@@MyTruckingSkills greatest of all time lol
That's a new one for me 😂
@@MyTruckingSkills Your videos are the best because you show the front tires, steering wheel and end of trailer and that's what students need to see.
Thank you very much for your kind words. Have you been able to get out the game yet?
This video showed up at the right time!!😂 I was on the very last "hard level," and it looked impossible. This little demo got me through it.
Stay close to the trucks on the side of the space,,, when the nose of your tractor passes the nose of the trailer just past the parking space and the turn real hard to the right go out about 10 feet then turn hard and quick to the left until you see the back of your trailer angled toward the parking spot, then maneuver it into the Space !
Ok, at 3:30 is the setup. When doing testing for the alley back maneuver. That is what I'm working on getting just right.
When I was doing the 90s at school we didn't have trailers lined up to our spot. So we were able to line up real close to our hole. So when you said to NOT line up real close to the other trucks I was confused. But it makes sense now, and that I'd want to give my trailer some more space from the parked trucks.
It's been 2 years I am into trucking, but still your videos are sooooo helpful. Thank you sooo much
I love to hear that. Keep on truckin!!

Thanks Dave. Great presentation!
thank you for the game and videos, I played every level and I am watching all videos
These are the best backing videos on TH-cam my man thank you for all you do I liked and subbed 👍
Awesome videos. You do a great much-needed service for novice truck drivers.
Good job thank you very much
Ok very good. 👀
Had hard time most of the time very good tips thanks
Love your videos. I was setting up way too close to my hole (as taught). Added another 4 feet and I don't sink it shallow anymore.
It's all in the set-up!!!
I like how professional your videos have become. keep it up
Great method of teaching how to do the 90. Thank you ❤️
I love 90 degree backs
I wish I had this when i was in driving school. I could do parallel parking, off side backing. But I could not get 90s or 45 for some reason
Total awesomeness I try to watch your videos much as possible so helpful thanks.
Thanks for that video, I am about to go into trucking in a couple of weeks, and need all the information that I can get help me out on the for the very first time driving a truck.
Well, I have a ton of it in the channel, be sure to check it all out!
It's there anyway how to unlock levels in this game without paying for it
I prefer the first one because it’s a more useful in less generous space lots. Usually what I have to do at my home terminal as well.
Great Job
At my school the instructor is teaching us the first one basically. Pisses me off

What other alley dock back is there other than 90 degrees???
Neat and useful. I m waiting for the game. I ll buy it!
Thanx a lot !

It's the midpoint between the two rear tires on all the trucks at the company I'm with
Excelente...
Good info
Nice video bro wow you make look so easy
perfect .godbless u

Where can I find this on the game at 2:00 minutes
Awesome!

How much distance is that on the second position you need?

Yes, you are right...but Nobody sides their tandems at a truck stop just to park.
i have a location for you. Where do I send you the screenshot or the information for the location?

Can you do the 90 and 45 with tandem til the back
Check out my earlier videos
Why can't you set up with a 45 degree angle first?
You have stefan molyneux accent lol
Not getting away with it. Totally hit him😂
Just wondering what program is that?

LOL
@@MyTruckingSkills every think about doing videos on your favorite brand of truck to drive or what transmission you like best, etc?
It's even harder with a fully loaded flatbed trailer (spread axle)
Pretty near impossible...
I guess never has to buy trailer tires
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Why not do a 45?
Because the video is about 90 degree backing. A 45 works be better yes, and I have made lots of videos on those.

hey master do you a school 🏫?
Nope.
In the first one if you went further before backing it would’ve been fine. I know it from experience.
