Truck driver here. There are so many guys out here who know people in the DMV offices that just pay for their license and never take the test. I've had them brag to me about it.
First thing I saw about this is the fact that this guy is blind side backing. Blind side backing is when you back into a spot while pivoting the passenger side of the truck. You can't see shit out of the passenger side. That's why you never pass a truck on the right. Next thing I noticed is his approach was all wrong. He should have been close to the hoods of other trucks then when he found a spot pull away from the trucks at an angle and then back in easily from there.
I have a YouTube channel and use to teach guys fresh out of truck driving school how to drive a Truck for a living.
Ask any questions you would like to know. :)
Where'd you learn to drive... cooking school?
I've never driven a semi but pretty sure I could do better than this..
Fully expected this to be a Swift driver.
