Why are you just sitting there? Just because you are backing up blindside does not mean you have to sit during the maneuver. Stand up so you can look out the passenger window and steer until you are into the hole to where you can do a pull up and then you can sit and steer! I did it more than I can count! Like steering a boat!
Yeah I hear you all! I have 32 years OTR! I am Rollover the Original in The Truckers Report dot com! Or AKA as RolloverRiderPGR!
sometimes you have to blind side reverse and the driver checked his angle numerous times during the reverse this is a professional driver however the use of a extra mirror does save time & money on waiting and repairs to damaged trucks thus making a safer reverse
@dieselanddymond That's a Volvo. motorized mirrors are damn near a standard on them! A little more use of them would help but still with all the room in that dock area he should have just turned around, come back along the front of the trailers and then done a right in front of his dock and then backed up easier and safer. We all know blind side is only done when there is no other option. It's a last ditch effort and makes a better video! LOL
I guess this is okay for new drivers but being with my dad for a shit load of miles on the road he would laugh at this. I never saw his ass get off the seat to back in (blind side or drivers side). I watch guys now and they are hanging out the door and climbing across the seat to back in and if my dad saw that he would probably right hook them and tell them to find another job that better suites them, Sorry but old school driving is where it is.
there are a camera they sell in Target . it coasts like $ 100 . its meant for 4 wheelers to put small magnetic camera in rear and it transmits video wirelessly to small GPS type of screen . I thought it could be handy but always forgetting about that . I have no problem with backing but this could be just handy in some tight situations .
actually i tried this one time before 4 years back i bought 2 mirror's from walmart put them together and i did couple blind spot and helped me a lot u have to try it to believe it
Pretty good invention, but seldom use. Who's that kind of a hole, first to cancel the dark side? In fact I always do in such a cancellation that I go somewhere to turn the truck around and cancel my HAND so I see all of the window. So then I madejo15 years and has seen its best way.Easy best, fastest and safest way. In addition, we have the trailers usually 2-3 feet tail overhang so I have to always remember to take into account also.
After viewing videos from backing posted by others, it is clear to me I made the right choice not pursuing OTR. I will NEVER have the patience for this.
@Mysterio2276 Hey man I'm not a over the road trucker, but I drive part time for my uncle. I have been a athlete my whole life and never was around farms, etc... I grew up in a small town. Anyways my point is practice makes perfect you would get to the point where you would back it in and never even think about it. Somedays you just cant get it backed in though. Just like sports some days you cant miss some days you cant make it know matter what you do.
Love the Idea. but from another CDL driver to another how come a 2.40 the view in that mirror went from the right side ( blind) to the left side drivers) ?
Sometimes you can't awoid blindside backing but in this case by swinging to right before your assigned dock,will at least point trailer in the right direction to your dock. Then you only need small corrections to line up to the dock. Any good truck driver knows that,I think this is just an ad for "lipstick mirror". HA-HA
WHEN.... I need to put my truck on the ramp from the blindside...... I use the electric motor on my mirrors to see the trailer..... This is just another gag for companies to make money!
@immobile2 I've been trucking nearly twenty years and I never thought of putting a mirror on the passenger visor. Damned good idea. Well done... Desperado
Volvos are the easiest trucks to drive, try doing that in a pete. Where I work we have to blindside off a 2 lane street into the parking lot do a 90 the other way and finish up blindside between another trailer and a container.
hey i spoted trailers in a yard worse than than that get a power mirrors and use the convex this guy wouldnt make if he had to park 30 like that a night and parrlalle park the trailer as well and leave no space between the trailers for the truck
times like this make a driver miss the old cab overs but i think the guy maken the video made this seem a lil more of a big deal than it is not sayin its not a pain in the ass sometimes but their maken a big deal out of it
That is an awesome idea! I usually just use the convex on the hood during the daytime, but not every truck has that, and it's obviously not always daytime. A couple times I've put her in gear and jumped in the passenger to steer so I can get a better look. Works, but certainly not the safest idea.
I used to watch the angle of the trailer from the drivers side window. Then picture the trailer going into the dock. Worked like a champ in Miami all the time.
For all those idiots stating that there is no need to blind side this truck please do yourselfs a favor and read the damm description. It clearly states that it is only done to demonstrate the use of the mirror.
there's no reason to blindside back in this situation. rule two in trucking is never back up unless you have to. rule three, never blindside unless you absolutely have to. oh, rule one in trucking, don't start driving a truck.
16 years of OTR driving. I've gotten pretty good at blind side backing. At some docks ... it's the only way due to the layout of the parking lot. Many a time I've just whipped it into a dock in no time. The people in the dock say it usually takes other drives much longer to dock than I do.
lets see, youre truck wont shrink or grow and if you take a look around before beginning backinup as long if you see one corner you will know were is the other corner of the truck .
@hammakes2003 i did it and yes i know it is very hard but once u make it one time you will that as long as you see one corner of the truck you have to know were is the other logical before beginning bakcing up you get offf the truck and see if you have the space you need ..but if you want to make sure just ask sombody to guide you .recently i seen a video about backing it up on YT
i just slide the 5th wheel all the way back for a tighter...sometimes 5 point U-turn so i can turn around and back regular, or i get a flagger for blindside, fuck all that stopping and looking BS, if it comes down to that at a yard, ill just drop it and tell a goat to do it lol.
@alex10324533 i don't know if you have ever tried backing up a semi its hard enough as it is but the right side of the truck is called the blind side and when backing up on that side you see nothing so before you criticise try it yourself.
@alexandrecouillard2 i driven a truck a semi an yes i backed it up .its just that you have to put the semi ligned up and then back it in and if you dont have enough space well you just whatch youre visible corner and hope for the best XD :P
No matter how you put it, I positively HATE blindside back-up!
... And, of course, being the stoopid newbie that I am, I'm very slow at normal back-up anyways, so I always try to find the "right" angle... Not always easy, though!
And if you know how to drive you should say that too, are you going to tell me that you were born with skills? you may be expert but remember when you just started? Nobody is perfect and you may think you know it all, but I'm sure we will not know when you mess up because you won't tell, just to keep your reputation clean
its not always possible to back up on the driver side. some of the costumers and even truck stops set the spots up were you can only blind side back. I curse them out the entire time I am backing into 1 of those spots
encore une cochonnerie a vendre! Un ou l'autre les chauffeur bruce & smith vont juste dans un sens, de l'avant il ne savent pas reculer meme dans un champs il arracherais la cloture a vache
This reminds me of driver that needs a haircut!... Then... What OTR carrier doesn't have a passenger side power mirror? And regardless, there is almost always a way to not back blindside. If a customer doesn't like it... TOUGH SHIT! Do they want their freight?
@normynoless : There are many places, designed by pencil pushers and penny pinchers, that have no idea what a trucker's needs are when accessing docks. Many docks are designed to access blindside. No one ever said that the architect ever drove a truck...
@OntarioTrucker I agree whole-heartedly. I drove for about a dozen years. Half of them LTL in the city... pups to 53''s in town. My point was he made it look harder than it is... And he probably had a power passenger mirror to help backing blindside. Once you've done it a couple times, it's not that bad! Anyway, been there- done that. I almost miss when consignees complain that you can't get a 53' trailer straight into their dock when they have 50' between their fence and dock! LOL
@OntarioTrucker Not to mention those old buildings built in the early 1900's that were designed for 20' long trucks. that you somehow have to get an 80' truck shoehorned into.
@OntarioTrucker hahaha exactly well put, that is how it is for the docks at work and i'm a yard driver, to access the last two doors you have to blind side them and they just extended the building as well so now it is even more difficult but at least it makes me a better driver =D
anyway si le gars yé po capable de reculer la.... ben ya un maudit problème parce que je recule la les 2 yeux fermer pis ya de la place en massssse lol même pas besoin de son cossin lol
@capsman69 ......lol! exactly!... hell I did that last nite on a ice/snow cover lot and I didn't need some lil mirror thing...some got it and some work for swift i guess
i hate blindsiding, all the tractors we have shake so fuckin bad its almost impossible to blindside, you look in that mirror and all you see is a blur, especially the yard hostler trucks
I agree..just turn around or get further from the dock to start with. With all the room on the drivers side of the cab I would have started the backing at a better angle.
Very cool I drive for pepsi and some of the store docks I have to blind side, but I have a smaller cab no sleeper and it's got a window, but i am definatly getting a strap on mirror.
that might have looked easy to some of you and all i say to that s**t is that u obviously have never been to a f**ken railyard or port. while blind side backing isnt a first choice, if you are gonna drive a truck, you better know how to do it. most of the older facilities were designed for cabovers and if you know what im talking about, they are shorter, smaller turning radius, nice work though.
because hes showing the usefullness of a mirror. so the best way ,if ur going to take risk like that, is to choose a spot with room that ur familiar with.. right?
thats neat.. I got an idea thats worked for me for over 7 years now, use the electric controller for the right mirror and push the mirror out as needed. I used to blind side back ( with a sleeper truck) 5 times a day 6 days a week and I had no problems after i started using my mirror
Yeah, if you blind side back into a dock it doesn't hurt to check. If you do it the other way on the good side of the trailer of course it's much easier
Hey man, really good idea you got there! Is this something that you bought or is it your creation? And don't listen to the idiot comments,if your criticizing this YOU don't know what the fuck your talking about.

its not always possible to back up on the driver side. some of the costumers and even truck stops set the spots up were you can only blind side back. I curse them out the entire time I am backing into 1 of those spots

This reminds me of driver that needs a haircut!... Then... What OTR carrier doesn't have a passenger side power mirror? And regardless, there is almost always a way to not back blindside. If a customer doesn't like it... TOUGH SHIT! Do they want their freight?

@normynoless : There are many places, designed by pencil pushers and penny pinchers, that have no idea what a trucker's needs are when accessing docks. Many docks are designed to access blindside. No one ever said that the architect ever drove a truck...

@OntarioTrucker I agree whole-heartedly. I drove for about a dozen years. Half of them LTL in the city... pups to 53''s in town. My point was he made it look harder than it is... And he probably had a power passenger mirror to help backing blindside. Once you've done it a couple times, it's not that bad! Anyway, been there- done that. I almost miss when consignees complain that you can't get a 53' trailer straight into their dock when they have 50' between their fence and dock! LOL

@OntarioTrucker Not to mention those old buildings built in the early 1900's that were designed for 20' long trucks. that you somehow have to get an 80' truck shoehorned into.

@OntarioTrucker hahaha exactly well put, that is how it is for the docks at work and i'm a yard driver, to access the last two doors you have to blind side them and they just extended the building as well so now it is even more difficult but at least it makes me a better driver =D

i hate blindsiding, all the tractors we have shake so fuckin bad its almost impossible to blindside, you look in that mirror and all you see is a blur, especially the yard hostler trucks
CarlosCoy135 2 years ago
I agree..just turn around or get further from the dock to start with. With all the room on the drivers side of the cab I would have started the backing at a better angle.

I do this just relying on spot mirror, I aint kidding. He has to look over. Still he is good tho.

Very cool I drive for pepsi and some of the store docks I have to blind side, but I have a smaller cab no sleeper and it's got a window, but i am definatly getting a strap on mirror.

KoralieMegan 2 years ago
that might have looked easy to some of you and all i say to that s**t is that u obviously have never been to a f**ken railyard or port. while blind side backing isnt a first choice, if you are gonna drive a truck, you better know how to do it. most of the older facilities were designed for cabovers and if you know what im talking about, they are shorter, smaller turning radius, nice work though.

because hes showing the usefullness of a mirror. so the best way ,if ur going to take risk like that, is to choose a spot with room that ur familiar with.. right?

Gezz mate you have an electric mirror why not use it?
bobkats 3 years ago
thats neat.. I got an idea thats worked for me for over 7 years now, use the electric controller for the right mirror and push the mirror out as needed. I used to blind side back ( with a sleeper truck) 5 times a day 6 days a week and I had no problems after i started using my mirror

Yeah, if you blind side back into a dock it doesn't hurt to check. If you do it the other way on the good side of the trailer of course it's much easier
