Sharing the RoadStandalone practice
At an intersection, a large truck ahead of you signals a right turn but first swings to the left. This leaves a gap between the truck and the curb. What should you do?
Blue A follows a large truck at an intersection. The truck has moved left while signaling a right turn.
Correct answer: Stay behind the truck, and do not enter the gap between the truck and the curb.
Why
The rear wheels of a long vehicle follow a shorter path than the front wheels, so the driver must swing wide to clear the curb. A car that squeezes into the space on the right can be hit by the trailer as it turns. Wait behind the truck until it completes the turn.
