Hello I’m a person that was trained for 10 days by a trainer that used me as his chauffeur and I’m learning as I go on everything. Your videos actually helping me but I still get confused sometimes My question I was told to drop my trailer at any door There was a 4 space opening and I’m entering from the blind side. Trailers are in front of me as well How should I approach that It’s a very tight spot.
Came back to say THANK YOU ! I got my CDL today because of your way of teaching.. Please continue to drop videos because your explanation of pull ups saved me and now I have a career that can feed my two sons 🙏🏿🙏🏿
Great video bro you have truly gave my confidence a boost I’m still working on it but now I have a general understanding of what I’m doing before your videos I was lost thanks
Thanks, that makes me happy to hear.. If you follow these instructions just like in the video I promise you, you will began to see that backing isn't as hard as people make it out to be.
I had been to two other companies beginning my career and when I got to Texas to training this was the first time I actually understood 45 backing including training in school u will get it in the whole no matter following these steps ✅
I got some understanding from this video and passed my skills test for a job today. Don't lean on your own understanding, give this method a try and don't deviate and you will be successful!
Collins is forgetting to be screaming, stomping his feet and throwing is arms around like a 5 years old having a tantrum .... isn't that what instructors are suppose to be doing 😂 Seriously though you do have calm simple and very understandable way of explaining.
Mr Burley I couldn't agree more. Just because an individual can drive from Egypt to Kalamazoo doesn't mean they are poised and mature and professional enough to teach humans a task that they're totally foreign to. It takes a calm and unique person to lead without getting out of character. I tell you if I ever see two particular past instructors in public I'm liable to smack the fire out of em. Thanks for your teachings Mr Collins.
No thank u u know most trainees from other side of the tracks and they kill yo vision with a refried formula it's a formula here but u can work the problem your way but I need clarity on that reset video get the concept not totally clear
Thank you great video I’ve been struggling more with adjustments more than anything this gave me the birds eye view and was helpful. Great instructor !!
Thanks Jonathan, and thanks for watching! I've developed my brand and about to launch it. I would really appreciate your support for EBM merchandise. Thanks again.
Thank you! This explains things in a way I can understand! I had about three weeks of school to get my cdl and have been learning a lot on my own since. I’ve had some old timers helping with tips but nobody beside me in the truck to continue training me. Yesterday I had to park in a tight lot with a “convention” of drivers standing around watching and waiting. Add to that being older, under a year driving, and female you can’t image the pressure😅. It’s the worst feeling in the world. I wanted to tuck tail and run. I got backed in, unhooked, and took off! I’m sure they’ve had bets of how long I’d last but I’m not quitting.
Thanks for watching, don't quit! persevere, take your time, take a deep breath and master your craft if I can do it you can do it if they can do it you can do i. Don't break down break through. I wish you all the success in the world. I'm glad the video help. I have a couple of more you might want to watch that could help you.
Mr. COLLINS i have a test for my school. In two weeks I wanted to know if I can fly from Pa to Dallas for a day of training and how much would u charge. Im off this weeked and next. I really need help because this will help me and my family!!
Hey K!!! That's what I'm talking about, what ever it takes for the family.... It would absolutely be my pleasure to help you. Unfortunately I'm on the contract with a company and I'm only allowed 2 train their students at this time. That's why I'm trying to help by doing the toy truck videos. K, I really really wish I could take you up on your off because that type of willingness and attitude drives me to want to help even more. Study that 45 video it's got some nuggets in there that should help. Good luck,I'm pulling for you.
@@Thisisebm Thanks my brother. I was struggling today on the offset and it kinda frustrated me a little. I will go back tomorrow and try to get it right. Appreciate you!!
Once again I can’t thank you enough your teachings work Backing has never been more easier thank you again anyway I can support I’m willing to do it you definitely got me as a new subscriber
Thank you Crimson G! I really appreciate those words. I have some things coming in the very near future and I would love your support. Thanks for watching!
We all waiting on some but I'm doing good in training off my previous steps for setup and your pull up and turn to problem my present trainer told me today u make me feel like a proud father cuz I was sent to him for training he buying me lunch Friday thanks but I'm still waiting♥️👍😊💯🏋️
Man I'm so happy to hear that you're doing well..... Keep looking at what you are doing, each time you do it, that's when you start developing your timing.
I think my trainer had the tandem for and when I reflected when I stepped out tractor I said its turning faster than normal so that's why I had 2 adjust the start off roll and check them tandems
Ms Pitts I hope you've passed and received your cdl since your last post. Was it your skills test you failed or in another area ? My God bless you on your journey.
Hey bro gud night is it the same concept with the 20ft dry van box I would love if you could do a video with the 20ft container doing the alley dock I would to see the set up
This is the only video that has build my confidence…. I am testing today… and I am so nervous. This was the only thing I didnt pass two days ago, because I didnt know how to correct my problem when I realized I had one.
I used your little tid-bit of logic you said "turn your wheel to the problem" helped me SO much during my parallel parking practice today. The teacher has me going in 17 different directions with his crazy flip flopping of his directions! Yesterday it was this way, today its that way he flip flops like a fish out of water! Its agravating! Ive got 3 weeks till the semester is over and I need to get this parallel parking down!
First of all Thanks for the feedback... And thanks for watching.... No everyone can teach what they think they know... So take the parts that you understand and put it all together to the best of your ability.... Don't get frustrated because it's hard to make good decisions while you're upset.... Relax.. And receive the info to the best of your ability... And I'm always available to talk when I get a chance...☺
You’ve really simplified this and broke it down. Sent to all my fellow classmates. If you’re in Dallas let me know if you do trainings on the side. Me and a few classmates struggling.
@Thisisebm I think it's super cool that you use them.And two years ago, when I started driving your videos were the ones that helped me the best. Other people have used plastic toys to show how to back, but ears seemed like they moved realistically, and they actually look cool. I've even come back to your videos. A few times since then, and still get help.When i'm having a crappy day parking lol
Always chase the trailer and u can always pull up front and straight back that’s the key always chase the trailer and look at the left mirror once your left side is fine your right side would be too,,,,
Hey Man...do you have a formula for backing w tandems slid all the way back? Some of places don't have the room in the front or between trailers for this maneuver with tandems in meat hole. You taught me well but this is something I have encountered a handful of times this month
I have a problem with over steering even though I try not to it's harder than I thought it would be backing these 20+ foot trailers .I really appreciate any advice you can give. Thanks God bless
Hello Mr Collins, when you say turn the trailer to the left, do you mean a hard left (all the way to the left) or just give it a mid turn to the left? Thank you sir for your help
In the situation on the video, a slight turn or until you begin to get the desired results....here's how you know when the trailer is beginning to do what you want it to do ... As you are looking in your mirror you will see the corner of the trailer began to bend and block your view when this began to happen the trailer is doing what you what it to do...allow it to happen, but be ready to counter steer..Once you can't see that means look at the other Side because it's moving over like you commanded it to do so slightly turn the opposite direction until you get the desired results... The trailer is under your command. If you turn the wheel hard it will bend fast, if you turn slowly it will bend slowly, but once it's doing what you what it to do be ready to counter steer....I have some more videos that might provide some more clarity on my channels... Or Cornell Collins EBM Facebook.
