Swift Flatbed Division... ?!

What sense did it make to take alley docking out for it though

 

Maybe im just tired.. huh?

 

Once school is finished you go to orientation. THAT'S where you make SURE you get a flatbed mentor/trainer. After 200 hours behind the wheel you test out and go solo.

 

In SC they removed alley docking from the cdl test and put in parallel parking instead of just adding it.

 

?!?! My parking spot in my yard is either a 45 degree offset or a straight up 90. The 90 is actually easier than the 45 as im backing between product on both sides with a few feet to play with... why would they take one of the most basic skills out... smh

 

It depends on your home state requirements, I graduated swifts program 2 months ago and nobody in my class had to do parrallel parking. Just pretrip, straight line, off set right , 90 degree backing, road test. I think parrallel is a north and sout carolina thing.

 

Not quite that simple when you sit there the first few times!

I nosed in a dock and backed a 360 docking the same space without stopping or pulling up. Now it took a lot of asphalt to swing it so hard you almost crush the cab extenders. I was bored goofing off that day.
