Not for everyone - Every 5 to 10 feet, I stopped and if need made an adjustment to the trailer. Always had the left - Used the Right to Keep it on time going into the Alley.

I feel like if I can't demonstrate the concept correctly or master my setup. It will be a lot of unnecessary corrections. Thanks for this video Mr. Steve. I finally see what my issues are on the alley dock. I have been hitting n missing on the range everyday. But, having patience is the key needed on my end. I appreciate you! &Thanks again

I oversteer soo much and this helped me understand what it looks like when I do at certain angles and what it means to “ chase the trailer” when it gets away from you. My dad and trainer kept saying “ chase the trailer” and i did NOT know when or why i should be doing it. This was a great video. Out of all the videos i watched your made me understand the concept of backing

Steve I just found your teachings let me say I been driving for 8 months I am using your technique from here on out..your the best teacher and you can hear the compassion you have for us newbies., can you do a 45 degree angle video if you have not already done so.. 😊😊😊
@truckerstevecdlinstructor3 ай бұрын
Hopefully soon on the 45 degree but that like the offset. So when we alley dock, the driver may be at a 45 degree angle when backing into the dock. Thank you for your kind words. This week we have rain but I plan to do more backing videos. ASAP

I love it every time I can accomplish this maneuver without pulling up. Going nice and slow and making a lot of small adjustments. I alley dock 4 times a shift so I get a lot of practice.

Yes , many CDL Students oversteer. This video may be of help - slow down! I teach my students not to oversteer and be in control of the trailer. CDL students are not all trained in the same manner.
