I have never found it useful to have someone guide me when loading the TC.
Personally, I seldom have any problem, but I have had those bad days. I find as I get older it gets more difficult due to my being less flexible in looking over my shoulder. I do use the mirrors, but also need to look turn my head.
If I do have someone guiding me backing a truck or trailer, I do not want them circling their hands trying to show me which way to turn the steering wheel. I want them to simply point in the direction I should go with the back of the truck (without trailer) or the back of the trailer. I know which way to turn the steering wheel. The most important thing it whatever method gets the job done.
I may stand corrected, but I think there is an industry/universal method to guide vehicles.
