I enjoy watching other people back into a site. A man and wife will start out, and pretty soon there will be a small army of helpers each giving hand signals. And no two people will be giving the same signal.
Quite entertaining! ;)
We have two cheap radios. DW is a good spotter ... even know that she needs to see me in the mirrors if I'm able to see her. Problem is, as I turn the truck, the view changes and as she's watching the back of the trailer, she doesn't realize I can't see her any more! Radios are just so much easier with no yelling!
Problem came one day as I was blocking the main road, trying to negotiate between trees right at both sides of the site entry. A couple of ladies were waiting, so decided to get out and "help"!
THREE ladies all telling me where to go! :E
Talk about CONFUSING!!
I finally got far enough back to be off the road, although nowhere close to where I wanted the trailer to be. Shut the truck off and walked to the back and waited till the "up front" spotters left.
Radios .. cameras .. years of experience ... NOTHING will help in a situation like that! :S
