These are You-Tube video clips from actual drivers or school instructors. They have posted these videos on You-Tube to help you learn about your CDL and about trucking in general. I've selected some that I thought you could get the most information from. Hopefully these will help you get an insight into what you will have to learn to pass your state CDL license exam. Now remember all state exams will be different and your school will tell you what is required to learn so that you can successfully pass you state exam. You Tube has a wealth of information for the trucker so please check out their sites.

Older video but very informative on what you should know about your air brake system. If you lose your brakes you could kill someone or worse you could lose your life.
As you will see in these videos it is not always as easy as it seems to back up a semi-trailer truck. Even for a seasoned professional truck driver runs into some tight spots. Every drop off is going to be different and there may not be enough room to back up.
