Welcome

Are you a new driver?

An experienced driver?

Or someone that wants to know what it's like to drive a tractor trailer? This book describes how to maneuver tractor trailers on the highway, on city streets, and at customer locations

One of the hardest things for a new driver is to pull into a truck stop at the end of the day and try to back into a tight parking space while other drivers are watching you. In the last chapter of this book I describe a formula that you can use to help you back into spaces at small truck stops or parking lots

     Finally, a book that explains in detail how to back a tractor trailer, July 12, 2009

By	Thomas J. Fenzel "Tom F" (MA, USA) - See all my reviews

I am changing careers into truck driving as I am 52 and my previous jobs keep migrating over seas. In the past, I bought a few books on how to drive a tractor trailer. Even though those books were good, they did not go into the detail of backing that I needed to understand. The previous books we very limited in the description on how to perform backing. I found that "The Tractor Trailer Book" explained very well the methods of backing in different types of situations. The book also describes the essentials of driving in the categories of shifting, highway driving, city driving, and attitude among other important driving concepts. I would very much recommend this book to new drivers and even experienced drivers that need more help on their backing techniques.

Amazon Verified PurchaseThis review is from: The Tractor Trailer Book: Practical Advice For Driving Tractor Trailers (Paperback)

I have been to CDL school and this would have been a great tool during backing practice on the range! The information on backing is spot on and the diagrams are well done! This is a great book for someone just learning to drive a truck and the added "real world" comments will keep you out of trouble. I'm donating my copy to my school, I hope they add this book as a required text.

This book is a great idea. I bought it for my neighbor who is going to school to be a truck driver, and it seems to have all the essentials to get started. Even for someone who's an experienced driver, these are great tips on how to stay safe on the road. All the in's and outs - from knowing the mechanics of the truck you're driving, to some true stories of life on the road. You don't realize how much goes into a job like this. Even if you're considering a life on the road, this book may help you decide if you've got what it takes.

Very helpful book explaining different ways to handle driving tractor trailers. Where other tractor trailer books gives information this particular books gives actual real world experience techniques on how to handle and drive a tractor trailer. Very good book I would recomend it to anyone whether the curious future tractor trailer driver student or even someone who needs refresher training.
