A tractor-trailer ahead of you signals a right turn at an intersection. It first swings to the left, which leaves a gap between the truck and the curb. What should you do?
A tractor-trailer ahead of A is shifted left and signals right. Space remains between the truck and the right curb.
Correct answer: Stay back and let the truck complete its turn.
Why
Long trucks need extra room for right turns, so they often swing left first. A car in the gap on the right is in the truck's blind spot and can be crushed when the trailer turns. Wait behind the truck, give it plenty of room, and never pass a truck on the right while it turns.
