Road Safety 09 - Heavy Vehicles ( Blind Spots )
.
.
.
Motorcycle riders need to be acutely aware of the significant blind spots associated with heavy vehicles. Firstly, the large size of trucks and buses creates substantial blind areas, especially on the right side. These blind spots extend far beyond what a car's blind spot might encompass. Secondly, the height of heavy vehicles means that they might not notice a motorcycle directly behind them or to the side. This height discrepancy can lead to potentially dangerous situations. Furthermore, the long trailers of trucks can obscure motorcycles from view, making it crucial for riders to maintain a safe distance and use proper signaling when overtaking. In sum, understanding these blind spots is paramount for motorcyclists in order to enhance their safety while sharing the road with heavy vehicles.
