Passing my CDL road test

OK, consider yourself motivated!
`
You're in private school; am I correct?

 

Pretend your just playing?
Act as if it’s another school maneuver?
The Importance of Pretend Play

It’ll only go if it’s given the right direction.
Seems like you’re overthinking and then over correcting.
Try backing with one hand and keeping other on door that way you won’t oversteer one reverse.
A little bit on the steering wheel goes a long way.

 

I was told "Don't overthink it". Worked for me.

 

You're not the first driver to have difficulty with backing; several on this forum had the same problem and couldn't afford money to pay for extra training.

 

That is one of the disadvantages of private trucking school.

 

just do what i have done for 25 yrs, fake your way thru it.

 

Be like a duck. Calm and cool by looking at it but paddling like a mad mother underneath

 

There's a couple of trucking company schools that hire drivers that didn't make it through private cdl school.
When I recommend them, I'm bashed and called a pimp and that the student drivers should go to welding school or coding school.
Problem is, the students don't want to be welders or coders, they want to be truckers and can be by taking the path that gets them there.
