What is the no-zone concept a professional driver should expect around their own truck?
- A.A zone where no other vehicle may legally drive
- B.Other road users often linger in large blind areas beside and behind the truck where the truck driver cannot see them
- C.An area where mirrors are not needed
- D.A parking area at rest stops
Correct answer
B. Other road users often linger in large blind areas beside and behind the truck where the truck driver cannot see them
Why
Cars frequently cruise in the blind areas along the trailer sides and directly behind it. Expecting them there, signaling early, and avoiding lingering beside other trucks yourself keeps those invisible vehicles from becoming conflicts.
