  1. A truck ahead moves left as it prepares a right turn. An opening appears on its right. What should you do?

    Correct answer: Stay back rather than driving into the opening.

    Large trucks may need extra space to turn right. Entering the space beside the truck can put your car in the path of the trailer.

  2. You have been traveling alongside a large truck near its rear wheels. What is a safer position?

    Correct answer: Move out of its blind spot when you can do so safely.

    Large vehicles have extensive blind spots. Avoid lingering beside them, and keep enough space to be visible and to react.

  3. A wide farm vehicle ahead slows near an unmarked field entrance. What is the best response?

    Correct answer: Stay back and allow room for an unexpected or wide turn.

    Farm equipment may turn into field entrances that are difficult to see. Its width and turning path require patience and extra space.
