1. Stay Out of the Blind Spots
You might not think about it, but one of the causes of semi truck accidents is the fact that the truck driver can’t see the other cars.
Actually, this is a major issue. Drivers of smaller cars have a tendency to glide into spots where they are not clearly visible to the truck driver.
When this happens the truck driver isn’t aware you are there. A big truck is not like a small car with lots of windows and mirrors.
Sure, they have truck mirrors but they can only reflect so much, and there are spots that are blind. This means the driver simply can’t see you, so stay out of the blind spots!
