Great information. My brother teaches at a trucker school. He gives the same information to the students. The hand at the bottom of the steering wheel has prevented a lot of students from failing.

Funny story, I used to drive a truck in the Army with a trailer, but it had been 30 years. I bought a 25-foot camper from a friend and knew right away it was too big for my Explorer.
I parked it in front of my house and put an ad in the paper. It sold in three days. The owner did not have a vehicle. He was going to live in it in an RV park. I agreed to deliver it.
It was an old tight RV park. I got to the lot, and all these people came out to watch me back this monster up. I got out, walked around, made a mental picture, and parked it perfectly. I got out strutting like I did this every day.
