WHAT ARE A TRUCK'S BLIND SPOTS?
Blind spots 3.jpg
Trucks have a different mirror system than cars. While we can see most of our surroundings in our cars, truck drivers have limited vision with their mirrors, where they are unable to see some zones around the truck, as shown above.

We all can help each other on the road by following the safety rules and understanding the limitations that some vehicles have.
