What should you do when passing a large vehicle?

When passing a large vehicle, it is essential to avoid the driver's blind spot and to pass quickly. Large vehicles, such as trucks and buses, have significant blind spots that the driver may not be able to see you in. By passing quickly, you minimize the amount of time you are in this blind spot, thus reducing the risk of an accident.

Additionally, large vehicles often have slower acceleration and longer stopping distances, which means they require more time to react to other vehicles on the road. By passing efficiently, you not only ensure your safety but also help maintain the flow of traffic. This approach is particularly important on highways where speed is essential for ensuring safe merging and passing maneuvers.
