correct ground movement hand signals

[cpetronis]

Awesome sauce Colin that's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a lot. Now I have to start scouring ebay for my own copy.
In reading the other posts to this thread I agree with pretty much everything I've read. I can understand where a person who's made a major investment in time and money could be inclined to figure they know best and ignore ground guides. Personally, I figure that I can't see or hear anything when driving so better to rely on the man on the ground.
Funny story on that though, I was borrowing a friend's M8 Greyhound for the weekend and had an active duty army Cav officer directing me while maneuvering it back onto my lowboy. He backed me into a tree which deformed the driver side wheel skirt. http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/im...milies/doh.gif Luckily the owner was very gracious and understanding about it but I've still never gotten over that one. It's one thing to damage my own vehicle but somebody else's is like a mortal sin.
So that being said, now I try to always use 2 ground guides when backing up. A lot of people laugh at me and say I'm being over cautious but I'd rather not make the same mistake twice. Part of me is always nervous though about running over the guy in the rear even though he shouldn't be standing directly behind the vehicle. Bottom line I need to get me a bicycle. Hard to hurt anybody too badly with that.
