  2. Angle the trailer toward the driver's side at a 45° angle.

Explanation
Answer: B - When backing into a loading dock or parking space using the 45° angle reverse method, drivers should angle their trailers toward the driver's side at a 45° angle. To better see the left side of the trailer, drivers may want to angle their tractor a bit more than their trailers. These actions allow drivers to rely on their driver’s side, left hand mirrors as they back into their spaces.
