    If you are good at 'visualizing', try to visualize the track your tandems need to follow to get you where you want to be and work on following that track...GOAL to confirm until your comfort and experience pickup..."Sometimes" you can see tracks left by previous trucks that can help you visualize that track as well...

    I don't know who you work for but what I found that worked for me was many multi-stop runs...Instead of running a whole day or 2 before hitting a dock, I was hitting 3, 4 or sometime 7 or 8 docks a day, many that seemed to be built for horse and buggies...Back then I looked at some of them and said "no way", today I'll look at any and say "yes way"...No better way to get the experience you need than to make many stops/dockings in a short period of time...1 every couple of days takes a while to build proficiency...

    Good luck!

    Be careful with the sound on, that truck horn (spacebar) is loud! Once I got into the parking space the guys around me in the game hopped out of the truck and walked over to mine and beat me up for waking them up with the horn while they were sleeping.

    This game is incredibly realistic!
