Interesting video. Backing up is a skill that some people never seem to master. Years ago I lived on a narrow dead end street in Portland, OR not far from I-5. A guy with tandem trailers accidentally turned down my street. Not sure why he got off I-5. He had one heck of a time turning his trailers around. It became a neighborhood event. We had to move cars and help guide the driver. The man was very embarrassed but in the end we were all friends. We all brought out snacks and beverages and had a block party in his honor. And we promised never to tell his company. The man drove off stuffed and laughing. I wonder whatever happened to trucker George?
In the early 70's I worked for my father's trucking Co backing trailers on to Railroad flat cars in the Santa Fe RR yards in Barstow Ca. . Loading these trailers you had to split 12" (6" each side) and to make it harder you could have up to six 90' long flatcars coupled together and you had to load the farthest flatcar first. When you load 20 - 30 trailers a day it doesn't take long to get real good at. By the time I was eighteen taking the CDL backing tests wasn't even hard. Those skills I learned back then I still use today 45 years later in fact I like the challenge when it arises.
I once had a guy pop out his truck at midnight to tell me my clearance while parking at a truck stop in Fairburn GA. I was following his instructions to keep going when I hear the sound of metal collide. Good thing I was going real slow, I winded up hitting the chrome cover of a drivers side smoke stack. Driver I hit was about to call the police when I persuaded him with $200.00 dollars to let it go. Lesson learned, DON'T TRUST ANYONE WHEN BACKING UP AT A TRUCK STOP, ALWAYS GET OFF AND LOOK!!!
I'm so glad my first truck driving job out of school was in the oilfields. Great pay, easy backing, and nobody to pressure you to hurry up since you're mostly by yourself. Vac truck driver job Is the best 👌 .
Thanks for the upload... The "watching my left rear wheel".... Making sure it's lined up with the yellow line is the best trick I've picked up so far watching tube vids. And it will only be a 5 ton that I will be driving on Monday. I do have a bit of experience driving one, but it was always by myself using common sense. Also was always embarrassed getting out of my truck 2 or 3 times to look and see what was going on when I was not sure. Specially when the Boys were watching me. HOLY PULSE INCREASE 10 FOLDS I TELL YOU LOL! Could literally feel it in my throat 😅. If anyone reading this has any more hints or tricks for me, it would be immensely appreciated! Any links to other videos welcomed as well. Just about the backing up. The rest I am perfectly fine. Merci buckets.
At the moment, I don't drive for hire anymore but I speak for experience, He said it righ: it never hurts to get out and look first., also one thing I always kept in sight was the bottom part of the long side of the trailer which actually is the deck of the inside of the trailer and always keep it as your point of reference to be lined up with any marker you are trying to line up against. One more thing that made it easy for me was to always keep the trailer's doors closed so you can always have a clean view of the end of your vehicle, once you are lined up and close enough to your stopping point go ahead and open them up.
I can't wait to get started trucking!! I have loved pulling trailers for a long time and have always wanted to drive a big truck instead of a F350. I learned when I was a youngster, Ass left wheel right! Combine that with G.O.A.L and you're good to go! See ya'll on the road, keep the rubber side down boys!
I personally would’ve positioned at a straight angle where the stop sign is and backed in that way. But there isn’t a wrong way to back in so long as you do it safely.
LMFAO I said the same its almost a straight back he says blind side backing but it's not blind until you can see and that stop sign had alot more space to correct anything he chose the 90 to show off LMFAO he did that though
You should never open your door while operating a cmv. make sure your mirrors are properly adjusted and always get out and look if you are unsure. And furthermore the most important thing in trucking is safety not backing
been out here 14yrs myself i dont see opening door as a help being alot of new trucks dont have stacks on front side of sleeper like old classic fl or 379 or kw. good vid overall
Speaking from experience, DO NOT WORK FOR CRST, unless you don't mind getting paid on average of $350 a week working past your 70 hour clock well into recap hours. Living on a shitty, beat up truck with someone you dont know, for AT LEAST 1 month before you get home time, and you only get 4 days max of home time after you work at least 30 days straight.. You have to pay for all tolls out of your own pocket(and pray that you get reimbursed for that expense, also you have to pay for all weight scales, and again hope you get your money back). CRST WILL short you at least 75 miles per run(but my experience was seeing 150 or more shorted miles EACH load). You constantly have to call your DM each pay period and chase down money you are owed, and expect to not get paid for loads all together. You will not get paid detention pay if you are at a shipper or receiver for several hours(I've been at many shippers and receivers for 10, 12, 14+ hours and got nothing for pay). You dont get paid for breakdown pay until 48 hours after you are broken down(and many times you dont even get that). Expect to get a truck to is severely beaten up on the inside and out, and the trucks are absolutely nasty inside with hard, old and dirty mattresses. If you are put into a motel, it will be the cheapest motel in the area you are in, and you WILL have to share your room with other CRST drivers. CRST provides no comforts inside the trucks, and you are expected to buy everything as far as all the office supplies you are required to have, you have to buy all the cleaning supplies, your own GPS(if you want one) your own atlas, tire gauge, tools safety gear etc(all of which you will NOT get reimbursed for) You are expected to buy your own load locks, and locks for your tractor and trailer. I could keep going on, but I'm getting pissed the more I write. And again, this is all from experience, very recent too, as I just resigned from CRST 1 week ago. I'm with a new trucking company now, and I'm truly disgusted with how shitty CRST is compared to my new employer. Do yourself a solid, stay far away from CRST
9 Fingered Rippingsax player that’s all fine & dandy but everybody experience in anything is different person to person me & my co/driver had a excellent 10 month tenure like I said we finished our contract and made decent money if I had a terrible experience I would be complaining like you
You and the driver made that look easy these videos encourage me more and more Thanks for the info hopefully I'll pass My Class A soon I've had My Class B for yrs now I'm ready for the Big Rigs
@@whodakidd16 in europe the new volvo trucks are equpied with cameras instead of mirrors. They are pretty dope and an optional extra is infrared laser night vision. Pretty cool but freakin useless in blind side reversing and the maintanence costs.. My god 1500 bucks / camera Im driving trucks now 6 years.

Clearly you didn't recognize the fact that instead of pulling into that lot by taking a right(which would have been a blind side backing for this situation) the driver took a left into the lot across the way, then proceeded to do a straight line back so he could then set himself up for a site side backing. So hey everyone, don't take advise from Pathfinder Bishop, he doesn't understand anything
It’s taking me 3 weeks to learn how to back up straight back and offsetting and alley dock. Having a hard time just going to taking longer then most to pick it up
Wow! This shit maybe easy to you because you have been doing it for years but for people just learning it,? I had to learn to this with about 2 hours training and there you go, go do it. It's a whole new learning to drive experience.
Victor Lopez Thanks for the love and support. Your comment really motivates me to make more videos. Even if your the only one watching them. Ill keep on making more of they are helpful! 😎
I like all the positive comments. I am to old to drive one of those trucks. I have to drive an old 2000 kenworth W900L with the little 600 cat with an 18 speed transmission. I wouldn't trade it for any of those new trucks. Of course I can't remember the last time I got out and looked. I just back up. Don't remember the last time I got a ticket or even a write up at a scale. Remember to just have fun out there. Backing up is easy.
@@johncunningham4820 that I understand but I am talking about opening the driver side door to " see better ", opening a window is safer! But thank you for the tip on reefers !! Really appreciate it!
I see drivers open up their doors when they back up but I wouldn't recommend that though not a good habit learn to use your mirrors and put your head out the window
Lol dude thats not blind side backing. He have plenty space for that backing lol. I hope you guys go to NY NJ or phi...maine where you have to stop traffic with little to no chance to pull up plus -10 degrees...but its a good start where u at.
I've learned to like backing with my tandems slid all the way back. Don't have to worry about the swing. I'm still learning, lord help me sometimes it's hard.
Personally, I'd have left the trailer doors closed until the last moment as the doors clipped back just obstruct the view of the back corner of the trailer. Also ... I haven't seen a driver open his driver's door to look back since watching my dad reverse an old Bedford about 50 years ago. Modern mirrors have made that the practice of dinosaurs.
Another the way you could get it done it's do to a serpentine but i don't know how much room form the right side to get it done...Good job CRST it's the second company i want too after i graduate trucking school " NTTS ".
You open your door as your backing up you should be fired,where did you learn that? Backing up is a skill it takes time to master but you will get it.Good job on getting out and taking a look.
I have a second hand story. As told my sisters boyfriend. According to him , he was attending Schneiders Driving school (2001-2 ) or close. The students were being introduced to this process of putting a trailer in a tight spot and they were all out in the yard to watch just such. The rig comes whipping up and in one shot the guy slips the box in it's intended spot. The sunglass bespeckled driver climbs out of the cab fumbles around in his jacket for a second, produces one of those folding canes the blind people use unfolds it and starts tapping his way over to the gaggle of now eye rolling students.
I'm a felon haven't been in trouble over the past 7 years with little work history all I need is a chance do you have any advice for me? This is something I really would like to do I can be very great at this and I will.
You made a mistake unfortunately society can be very cruel and not forgiving but if you learn from your mistake just drive on and let God deal with those who don't forgive good luck
Everything but one I agree with what u just said opening the door is kinda not that helpful sometimes maybe but not always it always help to have a spotter to guide u in or did what the guy did was get out and look
i had a problem like this in Bristish Columbia, but i couldn't make it. i was still a brand new rookie on my 90 day solo. i told the reciever i couldn't do it, so they told me to wait till a space was open with a driveway in front. btw, i never deliver to Canada again. that was my 1st and last time in Canada.
working for dollar general these past few months I am forced to blindside back a minimum of 15 times a week. sometimes more. I am still getting out and looking when I need to, it only takes a minute or less. But the consequences of hitting something will take much longer than that!
learning to back from CRST...Dont use all that space to the left. Get as close to the other trailers as possible while jackknifing your truck into ball.
I always found it easier to blindsided back where I could get as close as possible as what I can see. Once I get to that point I pull up and back straight in. I always drove team and would be woke up just to back in.
Went to a place for a pick up. After I drove in and seen a mangled fence! Then remember a driver telling me it was a back in and blind side place. A time when many years of shuntting paid off !! Tought myself how to back up using a empty chassis. .My training wheels was a 84 GM General ! What was ever available i used . When finally got a real shunt truck the 1st three days hit the dock a bit hard . Going from a regular truck to something short and sitting over wheels was a bit odd
This is not a blind side back, unless the definition has been changed. Blind side is cutting it in from the opposite side, passenger side not driver side.

It's especially very hard when you are fatigue and if you have been up all day Not easy night parking
It's not so bad. Just gotta be aware of surroundings and take your time.
tight back up? this guy has all the room in the world
backing is just SOO MUCH FUN!!!!!!!!! I feel so accomplished after I do it!!!!

Hey rookies don't take advice from someone who doesn't know the difference between blindside backing and sight side backing.
Clearly you didn't recognize the fact that instead of pulling into that lot by taking a right(which would have been a blind side backing for this situation) the driver took a left into the lot across the way, then proceeded to do a straight line back so he could then set himself up for a site side backing. So hey everyone, don't take advise from Pathfinder Bishop, he doesn't understand anything
🤩🤩
But he’s not blind side backing either way lol
Lol
He did not say the driver was doing a blindside backing. He simply said blindside backing is so unsafe.
I used to work for sti, I had to go to the Seattle North American place it helped my backing a lot!!
Proper Good turning
Really helped me on perspective. Take my test in a couple weeks 🤞.

if he had backed up from the right side it would have been almost a straight pull in. at least it looks like it to me. am i mistaken?
It looks like that to me plus 2 space open

Bad information all around. 🖕🖕🖕
Best advice, get out and look. GOAL!
Not get out and look when you have a clearance of one football field on each side???
The driver had hardly any space, yet he made it " LOOK EASY ".
WOW!!!
Ama fast learner,ready to sign up.
Thanks for the advice. I suck at backing lol.
me too
laern from mexicans
Get out and look. Very good idea, and practice.
😎
Greay vid but, why didn't you show the steering wheels at the beginning? Just saying but thank you, Brother.
Good. Arrive, go to restroom, GOAL, these things add up to success in backing.
this was the video back in 2017 in when i got my license that helped me out alot!!!
2:38 great tip, tires gotta line up to line!

Wrong..... the most important thing about truck driving is keeping your transmission maintained. Jk dude,good video
Nice job driver. You nailed it buddy👍
Good job. In time you will see that yellow line is not everywhere you go. And backing your mirrors good judgement
Another the way you could get it done it's do to a serpentine but i don't know how much room form the right side to get it done...Good job CRST it's the second company i want too after i graduate trucking school " NTTS ".
Looks hard but practice makes it perfect.
All about the setup!
You open your door as your backing up you should be fired,where did you learn that? Backing up is a skill it takes time to master but you will get it.Good job on getting out and taking a look.

I worked for CRST I think I pulled that trailer once
Good
I like how showed his face at the but right before that mentioned Asian. Definitely surprised me and I do get his jest.😊
i had a problem like this in Bristish Columbia, but i couldn't make it. i was still a brand new rookie on my 90 day solo. i told the reciever i couldn't do it, so they told me to wait till a space was open with a driveway in front. btw, i never deliver to Canada again. that was my 1st and last time in Canada.
Good video
working for dollar general these past few months I am forced to blindside back a minimum of 15 times a week. sometimes more. I am still getting out and looking when I need to, it only takes a minute or less. But the consequences of hitting something will take much longer than that!
learning to back from CRST...Dont use all that space to the left. Get as close to the other trailers as possible while jackknifing your truck into ball.

Back it up terry!
Why would you say that a blind did backing?
Awesome vid!!!
Easy backing. Plenty of room for error. If there was another trailer on the other side. A little trickier.
Thanks
I always found it easier to blindsided back where I could get as close as possible as what I can see. Once I get to that point I pull up and back straight in. I always drove team and would be woke up just to back in.
Went to a place for a pick up. After I drove in and seen a mangled fence! Then remember a driver telling me it was a back in and blind side place. A time when many years of shuntting paid off !! Tought myself how to back up using a empty chassis. .My training wheels was a 84 GM General ! What was ever available i used . When finally got a real shunt truck the 1st three days hit the dock a bit hard . Going from a regular truck to something short and sitting over wheels was a bit odd
thanks for the vid
Very nice Ji
This is not a blind side back, unless the definition has been changed. Blind side is cutting it in from the opposite side, passenger side not driver side.
