I disagree. It takes practice, trial and error, and more practice to
back up a decent-sized trailer with accuracy. Best place to practice
is
an empty parking lot and bring along some traffic cones or a
substitute.

It's easier to control the direction of a large, longer trailer than a
short one when backing.
