Pay attention to the blind spots!

Pay attention to the blind spots!

The blind spot is related to one or multiple areas around a semi-truck where drivers cannot see, and usually, it is called a “no-zone.” Large commercial vehicles, like semi-trucks, have much larger blind spots than regular vehicles, which makes it much more difficult for truck drivers to see in other lanes.

Semi-trucks have four primary blind spots:

• In front of the truck’s cab, extending forward for about 20 feet
• Just below and behind the driver’s window;
• The right side of the truck’s cab;
• Behind the truck’s trailer, extending for about 30 feet.
