<p>[QUOTE=&quot;darinmac38, post: 8319000, member: 234417&quot;]Backing in is the most terrifying part of trucking from my research thus far. I would love to find myself in an open yard someplace, with a variety of obstacles I could set up, like trailers to park between etc and literally practice for days until perfected. Why don&#039;t companies allow drivers to do this? Just give them a truck, trailer and a yard place to practice until perfected. The life of that trucker would be forever easier and less stressful. Knowing he had confidently back into anyplace takes so much pressure off.</p><p><br /></p><p>I watch videos of new truckers struggling every day, or unable to make a back in, or worse, tearing something up. Then they lose their job. If I was a trainer, as soon as my driver learned the basics, I&#039;d hand him the keys, send him into an open yard with some placed obstacles and tell him to report back when he perfected backing in.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
