As a brand new pass that's only been taught to pass the reverse manoeuvre needed for the test this was very helpful to me. I do think that the reverse test should be at least reversing into a parking bay
Thanks Jason. I am returning to driving after a few years break. Excellent instructions. Very helpful. Much appreciated by me and many others I’m sure.
This is the best reversing explanation/demonstration on the net. All new Class 1 drivers should see this. Well done Jason.
Legend cannock jason really helpful to a newly passed driver 👍👍👍
As someone who has taught students reversing in motor cars to test standard I've always reckoned HGV class1 driver s to be the most talented drivers. This very informative and clear video has cemented my opinion. Great reversing skills and keeping it real in a working yard with real moving hazards to deal with! I see HGV drivers doing impossible reverses in far too small supermarket car parks, in the dark, in the wet, with parked cars every which way! Much respect to you all.
You are the best teacher so far..
By far the best reversing tutorial iv seen. Very helpful and grateful for all the work you put into it.
Instablaster.
I think this guy did brilliantly. Many drivers who have had their licences for even about 10 years can't do that. Also he had lots of cameras watching him. Well done Simon
Yep indeed need a good 2 to 4 weeks constant on the road to get the hang of it..
Jason just a big thank you for this video 1 year ago i was doing lessons and watching this video...now 9 months driving and after hearing many times from other drivers it will come to you...I can now say it does.
Good tutorial. The instructor is decent; knows what he's doing and explains everything well. Also the other guy did really well; top reversing. I used to be a shunter driver in a factory yard and passed on my second attempt. Difficult skill to learn and what I found is that there isn't a lot of middle ground when learning to reverse a lorry; either you are good at it or terrible! Top tip: practice shunting trailers in an area with limited forward movement because there will be times on the job when you have hardly any room to manoeuvre.
Jason, failed my tesco assessment reverse last week. Watched this awesome video 3 times and passed my Sainsbury's assessment reverse today!! Cheers mate!!😄😄
Michael Bell well done, and you're welcome!
Small steers and often instead of big handfuls is the best advice I ever had,great vid.
True
Super calm and friendly instructor, would love to be helped by him.
Fotojensen thanks for that. But I’m not an instructor! Glad you found it useful. I offered my help to the driver, who at the time was having some trouble. So I thought, if I can help him maybe I could help others. This was the result! I never thought it would be received as well as it has! So grateful for all the positive comments.
@@JasonWaltonDriveAlong you schould be an instructor then ;)
First day driving a artic double decker boy did I need this video today. Thanks
Iam a 55year old, who has had a class 1 since I was 21. In that time I have only done a handful of class 1 jobs. Mainly done class 2 tipper work. Not driven any trucks for around 15 years due to health issues. But now looking to return to some sort of driving work. I am stressing about my reversing ability after so long. So loved watching your video to pick some great pointers. I could just do with an hour or so, doing some manoeuvring around a yard like yours. To renew my confidence.👍
pete brennan crack on then buddy. It’s just like riding a bike!
I’ve been practicing for a week shunting lorries on the works yard, and no way is the guy teaching me even half as good at teaching as this guy is! I’m impressed, thanks 😊👍
Yeah, is not bad. But I bet he could eat a Rowntrees Fruit Pastilles without chewing it.
@@JasonWaltonDriveAlong lol
I've been driving trucks for 32 years, 26 years on class 1 and I found this video very informative. Well done and thanks for sharing, I'm sure you've helped a lot of drivers.
halleluyah ! first person on you tube to show reversing in to a bay with good qaulity video cheers jas
+R Mc You're welcome!
Exactly. He helped me out loads with this video when I first passed because they don't teach you to do this on ur test
Great vid buddy,u make it look far too easy.
Straight to the point, clear instructions, great quality video. The perfect combination indeed 👌
Would love to see more of this kind of content Jason. Especially with the licenses being combined soon, my main fear is going to my first job as a fresh pass having only experienced the one reversing manouver which you can just remember what to do based on the cones and being confronted with a tight bay or challenging reverse where you actually have to know how to manipulate your trailer and adjust to the surroundings.
I was recommended this video 5 years later in the comments of a vlog, and as far as I've seen, it's still by far the best guide on TH-cam. There's a lot of information about passing the tests and vlogs following people on the job, but very little as detailed as this on the in depth techniques and mindsets that really help the new drivers being thrown in at the deep end.
It's by far the best reversing video on TH-cam if you can do what he says you won't go far wrong
I'm not even a truck driver and I thought this video really helped with my own reversing methods. I drive a large van, so everyone thinks it's gonna be easy. Not always but this certainly did help! Thanks Jason, Thanks a million!!
Brilliant tutor, I've been training for 2 weeks everything is spot on apart from reversing, it's starting to plss me off now 😤🤣
Best reversing video out there, brilliant instructions with some great banter thrown in to ease the nerves of his trainee, makes it look so easy, good effort by the trainee.
This guy reminds me of a brummie version of my dad lol. He taught me many years ago in exactly the same way God rest his soul ❤
On my 3rd week driving class 1 Jase , forward is a piece of piss but the reversing still getting me having to park between 2 trailers like this yard on Immingham docks only a few feet each side is very awkward but this video has helped me millions cheers buddy ;-)
What a brilliant instructor so cool and relaxed
he's not too bad!
I never seen such a quality education in reversing...thank you very much...
Best Video showing reversing on TH-cam, thank you for sharing 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for a great video. I'm back on the wagons after a 30 year break and your phrase about "driving the trailer in and not reversing it in" was just the reminder I needed to get my mindset back. Cheers. Love the scented candle gag at the start :)
A great instructive video. Relaxed but proficient exhibition of masterful reversing. A Triumph and Big respect to Jason Walton.
So much patience is shown by the trainer which is important when teaching, especially teaching things like this where mistakes could be lethal. I'm currently doing a C+E apprenticeship so this video has given me an idea what reversing is like to begin with.
The best reversing advice on youtube Jason this should be part of the test instead of the snake reverse
Absolutely.... terrifying coming to your first bay reverse after passing my test... completely failed to reverse it, people watching with arms folded... luckily a fellow driver came and helped me 👍
Class 2 driver for years, just passed my class 1 however my reversing is embarrassingly poor atm. Great tutorial Jason deffo learnt more 👍🏻
Glenn Antonni cheers bud, glad it helped.
Absolutely Excellent video, not only you have the patience with the chap, but you give him confidence and explain it like a pro. You got the camera angles spot on as well this is the best reversing an HGV video on the internet.
Alvaro Odeh cheers bud!
Passed my test at 21(now 37) only ever drove lowloaders for 10 years in and out of new housing estates cars everywhere got good at blind siding, no problems. Had a bit of a career change. Fast forward to a few weeks ago, I’m now back behind to wheel delivering to DCs and it’s like I’ve never drove one. I still struggle to back on a bay my angles can still go to shit I still can’t get use to reversing with an automatic gearbox. Great video, great instructor great the way you explain the “science” behind it all
Tez Mur cheers bud, glad it helped.
Hey Jason
This is a great video, i have my first class 1 job next week and although have held my licence for 15 yrs i haven't used it, done a day formularisation training last year but this has made me feels a lot more confident and given my memory a good jog! great video and great way of teaching.....thanks and well done
One of the most informative reversing videos I have seen, thank you for taking time to do this one. It has been a great help. I think a driving instructor is your calling.
Martin Capes cheers, glad it helped. 😜
Thank you jase been driving rigids for 40 years watching this as I've been put on shunting first time in an artic deep joy in your favourite truck xf105 the great thing is the help I've been getting off other truckers and my mentor coxy the shunter with his bosted wrist 👍👍👍👍
Might even get a class 1 out of it
Got me test Thursday the 25th bricking it😁
Well jase all good passed me class1 at 61 must be mad
@Kieran Allen thank you wish you all the best with your new venture in the new year to be honest wasn't as bad as I thought mind you I only travel 300 yards on the road 😂 😂
This video is really helpful Jase, I've got my first permanent class 1 job coming up and watching this has given me a good idea of what I need to be doing :) Thanks
I keep watching this because I struggled a bit with reversing my caravan last wk in a services into a bay.
Fabulous tutorial video, after driving rigid vehicles for nigh on 20 years I am turning my hand to driving class 1 next month for the company featured in this video, I did struggle a bit in the reverse on my assessment but it ain’t easy when you start, I shall watch this video again and again, thanks again for this great tutorial.
I’ve searched through numerous vids on the net to help me find peace with my reversing woes,I must say that this is the most helpful vid I have seen
Very clear and helpful explanation and really shows new drivers what it’s all about
Especially with those niggles every new driver gets once they’re qualified
glad you found it helpful
Hi ! Good bless you ! When I did the driving school the didn't teach me how to reverse a class 1 ....Since I start driving class 1 I was watching a lot of videos about reversing and from your video I get the trick. Thank you !
Thanks for a good vid. ive had my licence for years since been in the forces but never used it in many years... just done a refresher in Widnes and got my tacho and digi card and ready to go. cheers
Even at speed still managed too nail it. I’ve just found your videos and I’m enjoying them so far
Hi Jason, Been watching your videos for a month or two , really enjoying them.Great vid on reversing , I have my class 1 and work on the Agency at weekends, this is an art to doing this , and great feeling when you get it right. Cheers Jas.
Nothing wrong with taking a shunt if you need it. 👍🏼
You’re brilliant at reversing. Thanks for the tutorial. Started my first lesson today
at reversing the Artic today. Lots to learn and Thanks again for the Vid 👍
Bonnie glad it helped. Just take it one step at a time. Be aware of your surroundings. If you’re not sure, get out and walk around the vehicle.
Yea this is by far d best video I've seen on this topic &fair play to u 4d upload 👍🏻🇮🇪
I've only recently passed my Class 1, reversing into spots like this is one of my worries, you make this look sooooooooo easy. Thank you!
I smiled all the way through this video.. so good .. thanks Jason . I drove triple spits on Seddys for 10 years when I was young then did 20 years of IT sat at a desk, now about to take my medical to get my Class 1 back and go back to driving at 53. In all the years I did IT I don't think I was ever as happy as I was at the wheel of a bendy one. But I still get the shivers when I think of blindsiding it. Over confidence causes more accidents then lack of experience in my opinion. 100 shunts is better than one accident. But I'm nervous as hell of the reversing after all this time, but Ill do what i was taught by my old driving mentor, slow as fuck.. safe as fuck.. again thanks Jay.
Brilliant camera work, easiest & understandable reversing training video
thank you for this very clear and direct tutorial. I have just started my new job and am totally crap at reversing into bay. Even though i drive on the left hand side i am so glad this has helped.
Cheer's there! , the very best refresher video, with RHS driving semi - trucks... for me I've found ... thank'[s n be well!
Cheers bud. I'm glad it helped.
Amazing reversing. A pleasure to watch. You are the man.
Wish you local to me so you can teach me. Had my licence for 4 months and reversing is still something that gives me anxiety. Hope to one day master it like you. Thanks , best video I have seen.
Definitely agree with reversing looking out the window for new drivers like me .. great tip,, I'm a truck mechanic, lots of backing up into the workshop.....
Very good training there. Wish i had the same training when I passed the class 1. The driving school only teaches you to drive an reverse on a certain level just to pass the test. I recently had an assessment and faild because I was unable to put the trailer on a bay. The positioning at the beginning is very important, I didn't know that. Hopefully next time I'll do it better.
Love these types of video great work jas👍🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Brilliant Jason. I was useless on my 3A test although I passed it on the second attempt. A large part of it was nerves. I was physically shaking when doing my uncoupling and coupling.
Dw I just done my reverse used 2 shunts (max) started well and nerves affected me to . Somehow passed got practical Tuesday bit more driving in morning . Lot to take In mate
Passed my on site driver assessment today. Thanks again Jason. This really helped.
+Phil Higgins Now thats what i like to hear! Keep up the good work. Never stop learning.
Jason, i always say its as easy as you make it....getting your position is a must! Good video and i am sure many will learn from this!!!
What an amazing boss, lucky guy. Great video, thanks for sharing.
Jason, loved this, so many good reversing tips for us newbies.... Thankyou 🚛👍👍👍👍
Jason Walton great job, respect and thanks for this video
Great video, like the drive it in rather than reverse it in advice that will be really helpful, just passed my class 1 and have already failed a job assessment because I can't reverse, I really feel like you are taught how to pass the reverse exercise because of time limitations rather than actually how to reverse. I could really do with an hour of practice reversing into bays like this guy had.
Great video - you've saved a lot of drivers a good few quid by reducing the amount of lessons they'll need by this video etc and no doubt many would donate a couple of quid to you or buy you breakfast etc if you had a gofundme I'm sure you'd be surprised just how much new drivers appreciate this video - good video as always
numberplate guy cheer buddy, glad you enjoyed it. Glad it helped.
Jason, I will like you to help me to refresh my mind. Thanks for this lesson, really helpful
very good video mate! i just done class 2 recently and tempted to go with c+e . its very helpfull watching your videos then i know what to expect when i do start
The editing and camera angles are the most impressive part. That was very informative.
Ronald Raygun thanks bud, appreciate it.
@@JasonWaltonDriveAlong hi saw your video on reversing a truck really enjoyed it thinking about my class 1 any advice be much appreciated had my class 2 for 17 years
Best video I've seen on here for reversing thanks
That 'Drive it in' statement has been a godsend. Fantastic video.
Philip says you are both awesome. The main guy at reversing you make it look so easy buddy another twelve years yet buddy brilliant teacher we respect your skills from the learners. 👌🤘🍺🍺 keep safe and well happy trucking lads phil.
I couldnt reverse the truck during my lessons took shunts. Went for my test did it once. I was shocked at how i managed it. After watching your video a few days after my licence came back. The trainer thought i was kidding when i said i was a new driver. Thanks to your video
I have just passed my HGV1 yesterday, after 20 years of hgv2 driving and it's a wake-up call. This video is educates, and I'm anxious to get going. Reversing is my weak point, 30 tonne rigid vehicles was a peace of piss.
Fantastic video Jason. I wish I had the chance to play around in a yard when I got my first job on containers. It would have been so helpful. But a great video that I thoroughly enjoyed watching
Wish more companies gave training like this when you start with them. as a new driver I’m struggling with reversing onto bays.
Me too
Don't worry lads you'll get it. Take your time reversing. Give your self a moment to plan your reverse before you position yourselves
Teaching is learned. Jason he sure have an astonishing talent for it. Bravo Jason! Bravo!
Why, thank you very much. Glad you thought so!
Loving how your teaching this chap....I'm not a lorry driver but the dreaded van driver lol. Anyway I've liked and subscribed...Cheers 😎😎👍👍
Brilliant video sir I have recently passed class 1 this video taught me a lot. Thanks for great video
That's kinda reversing comes with experience, nice job 😄
Great video Jason. Congratulations; ) !!!
Excellent video Walton!!!!
Great video pal I’ve had my class2 for 4 years and just passed my class1 and I’m really struggling with reversing into bays but this has really helped 👍
BIGROBRACING Robinson glad it helped!
Thanks so much Jason for this video. Very helpful
Not long passed my test (last week) still yet to get my first class 1 job but reversing on my lessons was always the most difficult part but this video is 100% helping with my confidence! Thanks alot mate 👍
Are you working now
@@Crypto-stacker4 I am mate, I've had a few jobs since but I've found myself settling in and driving for aldi now which I'm really enjoying at the minute!
@@leejackson6305 that’s good mate I’m at Tesco
@@Crypto-stacker4 how are you finding it mate ?
You really should be a Class 1 instructor, I would have loved to have you as mine like, you seem to know your stuff
Great video, really helped me reversing into loading bays!
Frank Woods glad it helped. Got to admit, I liked making this video! 👍🤪
Hey Jason, if I had such kind of a person like you here in kenya I would have passed my test in two weeks time. Thats a great job. Take abeer anywhere I will pay soon.. Cheers man!!!
On the side of a busy street with people and vehicles and street furniture and high kerbs wet night in the dark can really test someone there can be many awkward manouveres
Hi Jason. I like this video. I have just failed my assessment for a job, but will study this video even more,to give me a chance. I really struggle on my reverse. It blows my bloody mind.
Very smart and well explained with helpful visuals, thanks so much
Great job on the video, really helped my confidence
spot on video I've recently passed my class 1 and some days it goes well and some days I'm terrible. I'll try driving the trailer in like you say when I'm back at work. thabks
The hardest bit in the articulated lorry is the reversing and we all started struggling 😂🙈😂
Buy far best video I've seen cheers Jason
Fantastic I am doing my HGV test never revert a truck and trailer before I have lernt alot thanks Pal
15 years doing class 2 tankers I've finally booked my test for next week only so I can get the hell out of this country ... great video 👍👍👍
Well I passed with just 1 minor 😀😀😀😀
I passed my class 1 just over a week ago. This video is very useful!👍
You're a brilliant trainer 👏😎
I'm not a truck driver, but I liked this video. the nearest I get to driving a truck is in Eurotruck simulator 2 and American truck simulator. the reversing 'seems' to be the same principal. i wonder how these games compare to the 'Real thing'.
This is the best video for a new pass love it 👍👍👍
