Large vehicles like trucks are harder to maneuver, have more blind spots, and take a longer time to decelerate. It is important to be extra vigilant of these when on the road. Observe safety at all times. For truck drivers, know your blind spots and keep a safe braking distance. Furthermore, always observe the speed limit and be aware of dangerous tailgaters.
