I did this with my CDL training class over the weekend I was super frustrated and tired by the end of the day there is like 15 of us only one instructor one truck. So we are lucky to get maybe 4-6 turns per day. They gave us a different instructor both days. Most of my class had it down I am still having a hard time.
I'm very sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, many trucking schools in the country are similar in that regards. Kingdom Trucking Academy uses 4 to 1 ratio. All of our instructors go through our in house certification training before instructing. A tip I give students that struggle at this. Watch your outside trailer tires. Focus on keeping them 2 feet at all times from the line. This sometimes helps.
@brayansolano1936 don't quit. You will get it. If the school you're attending doesn't provide adequate instructing go to Kingdomtruckingacademy.com and purchase our video package to break everything down. We use our Driver Training Package with our students. Keep at it. Your future is in your hands, don't let it go.
I will give it a shot later today when i hit the training yard to close out the week. I hope to close out nice and strong today. All this week, i've been struggling with straight backing.
I can’t wait to get to class on Monday & try this out. I’m in a class with 8 guys assigned to 1 truck. Most of the guys have some time of exp & I have none. I’m super frustrated guys are doing offsets & 90s & I’m struggling on the straight line with 2wks left in school.
@THEMACHOMANE stay after it. Remember, watch the back end of the Left side of trailer. When it starts to stick out turn the wheel to the Left using the Wonder Woman technique. When the back corner of the trailer disappears from your drivers side mirror turn to the right. You'll get it. I'm sorry you don't have instructors like our Kingdom Trucking Academy instructors, but I have confidence in you. Roll on future trucker, roll on.
Im doing my state exam CDL test soon and so far passed pre-trip and maneuvers. One thing I’ll say is that you don’t need to be doing a whole lot of turning. Just little adjustments helps as soon as you see the trailer drifting to one side. Continuously scan both mirrors to catch the drift on both sides.
To everyone struggling we WILL pass I just failed for the second time. However I know it’s more so because of my temper. Once we calmed down and breathe 🧘🏾♀️ we will pass. I promise you! It’s not my skills that’s failing it’s my attitude that’s making my skills fail.
@pistolpat-16 you turn the wheel to the problem. The problem is the back of the trailer. When you see it sticking out in the mirror turn the wheel to the left. When you can't see the back of the trailer turn the wheel to the right. Hope that helps. If you need help on anything else you can purchase our video tutorials at Www.kingdomtruckingacademy.com. Thank you.

I'm really frustrated and angry, I think I can't get over this. I've tried all the advice from many videos and they haven't worked. I want to quit.
Feel u same boat

Makes sense

Yessss yes ma'am we got this!
Do you turn the wheel towards where you see more of the BACK TRAILER TIRES in your MIRROR? Or MORE of the FRONT CORNER of the TRAILER in YOUR MIRROR?
@pistolpat-16 you turn the wheel to the problem. The problem is the back of the trailer. When you see it sticking out in the mirror turn the wheel to the left.
