Lines? I can't even see the lines, well I do but there are like 4 of them ...mirrors shake to bad. Come to think of it I never look at lines, except in a parking lot and then it's just to judge if I'm in the middle of the spot. The dock I just watch the pad around the door, not even sure how I hit it square now that I think of it.

Well,several buildings arent Really straight,lines arent centered on docks,weird angles etc.Hang your head out the window.Yes,angled mirrors over 53'ft of trailer will throw you off a lot of times.JMO

I had that problem when i was hauling freight. It was embarrassing and frustrating for me. I just figured it was from the concussions in my past. Only thing i ever came up with. I eventually gave up trying to be mr perfect. Alot of weight off my back when that day came.

Pick a line and stay on it. Sometimes they paint lines crooked. One is good the other side is not. If the lines are a mess but the guy in the door next to you is squared up then back in on him. If mo lined,then Find a spot on the dock and put the corner on It. It gets easier as you get more time in the seat.

I like the docks that put the line right beside where your tires should be so I just touch the line with all my tires
