Im not sure how to take that story. From what Im gathering, he was to back into the contstruction site. (50' wide entrance).
Why was he to back into the construction site? Was the site not large enough to go into and do a uturn inside the site? also...
From what I gather from the narrative, he was to back into the 50' wide entrance....from off the road. How much swing room did he have to get the trailer and tractor around to successfully back into the entrance?
From what Im visualizing. It was probably on a small 2lane road, probably with soft shoulders. also.....
why would the driver, take your word for it that you are a driver and allow you to do the back for him? This question is probably reitoricale. Presuming the incident happened as you describe.
I know Im questioning your story...but there does seem to be some "Loopholes".

He indicated that he hadn't been driving long. It was a company truck belonging to a large OTR carrier.

It would also appear that you answered your own question. Everybody has started somewhere, sometime. They have to gain there own experience as they learn the ropes of driving. I presume you never got yourself into a position that had you so utterly frustrated that you wanted to just giveup.
