  Don't "hang out" on either side of trucks or buses!

They have large blind spots on both sides.  If you can't see the driver's face in his side-view mirror,

he can't see you.  If the driver needs to change lanes for any reasons, you could be in big trouble!

Rear NO ZONES

Avoid Tailgating

Unlike cars, trucks and buses have huge NO-ZONES directly behind them.  The truck or bus driver can't see your

car back there, and you can't see what's going on ahead of you.  If the truck or bus driver brakes suddenly, you

have no place to go.

 

Backing up NO-ZONE

Pay close attention!

Never cross behind a truck that is backing up!  Hundreds of motorists and pedestrians are killed or injured, each

year, by ignoring trucks backing up.  Truck drivers do not have a rear view mirror and may not see you cutting in

behind them.

Front NO-ZONES

Pass Safely!

Don't cut-in front too soon after passing.  Truck and bus drivers need nearly twice the time and room to stop

as cars do.  Look for the whole front of the truck in your rear-view mirror before pulling in front, and then

don't slow down!

Wide Right Turns

Avoid the squeeze play!

Truck and bus drivers sometimes need to swing wide to the left in order to safely make a right turn.  They can't

see cars squeezing-in between them and the curb.  Watch for their blinkers and give them room to turn.
