The CDL test requires you to back around a corner into a parking spot called an alley dock to truckers.

Hints to start:

  1. Adjust both mirrors so you can see you rear wheel arches without straining
  2. Insure you can tell where your rear bumper is.

When you start to reverse try to use a smooth arc and aim to have your inside rear wheel (Usually driver side but not always) just miss the furthest out cone on that side.

Once your rear wheel is beside the cone put the steering wheel hard over until straight in the parking spot.

Back up to the stop point.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
