Well that's a new one to me.

I would think people would relish having the "expert" tell them which way to turn, and simply follow the directions. Who cares if you're turning left right left right left? Just do what you're told.

Either it gets done perfectly because it's the expert doing everything but actually handling the wheel (which face it, a monkey could be trained to do), or the expert gets humbled because it doesn't work.

No skin off the wheel handler's nose in any event, which sounds like a win to me.

ETA: And when I say do what you're told, I mean verbally, not hand signals. Tell the wheel handler which direction to turn the wheel, how much to turn the wheel, and have them stop between each repositioning of the wheel so you can check the tires and make sure it's set up right for the next maneuver. Almost like operating the RV via remote control. It should make for perfect results every time.

Few people like to be told what to do. Especially when the one telling them thinks they are an "expert" and that they are so good that they can give those directions to any monkey and get it done right.
