Well.... That's one way to do it. But, I do have to say that if most of the DMVs around the Country see those "cheat" marks on the trailer they will end the test and send the student away. The way I teach you turn the wheel 3 times. And don't waste a get out seeing if you crossed the center line. Mostly, SMH at the "cheat" lines though.

seems ike he was too close to the driver side cone when close to the parking spot. You can see it in the overview better, but you cut the ground view showing his correction to move it to the passenger side more when backing. Perhaps he even needed a pullup to get it more centered, but we dont see that nor the best way to do that. newbies rarely do a perfect maneuver. they need to correct the "imperfect" setup, so its good to see videos showing how to make corrections.

Still the same concept, but it'll be much faster. If you ever back a dolly, just a quarter turn for less than 1 second. That's why some drivers slide the tandems to the very rear when they back. I prefer my tandems all the way to the front when backing. Shorter wheelbase length, but the rear of your trailer will swing out more. Everything has pros & cons. None of these trucking school mention this. When you're going forward, you're PULLING. When you're in reverse, you're PUSHING. Don't understand the concept, push/pull any object, like your phone or cigarette box. It's all about the placement of your tandem. The front of your vehicle, it doesn't really matter where it is, left, center, right (if you have plenty of space).

I prefer my tandems all the way to the front when backing. Shorter wheelbase length, but the rear of your trailer will swing out more. Everything has pros & cons. None of these trucking school mention this. When you're going forward, you're PULLING. When you're in reverse, you're PUSHING. Don't understand the concept, push/pull any object, like your phone or cigarette box. It's all about the placement of your tandem. The front of your vehicle, it doesn't really matter where it is, left, center, right (if you have plenty of space).
