    It should not surprise anyone that a woman can back a truck as well as a man. I mean they have to dance backwards and in high heels.

    Its an individual thing...backing takes time to learn. Not a m/f thing

    It's harder for women to back because they are usually applying lipstick or filing their nails when they are backing. But I saw one female driver use the mirror in her compact to hit a dock. Could a man do that?

    There's been times I've had to help guys back.At kb half the job was backing,12 times a day and sometimes it was a tight blindside back.
