How Many Blind Spots Does a Large Truck Have?
1 Answers
Trucks mainly have 4 blind spots. The following sections introduce: Front Blind Spot: The front area is a semi-blind spot. Generally, the area from the front of the truck to about 2 meters behind the cab and 1.5 meters wide is a blind spot. There are significant visual blind spots close to the body of the truck. Left Blind Spot: The left blind spot is near the rear of the truck's cargo area and is relatively smaller compared to the right blind spot. However, with the obstruction of the A-pillar and side mirrors, the driver may not notice pedestrians in time, especially children. Rear Blind Spot: The area directly behind a large truck is a complete blind spot. Pedestrians, non-motorized vehicles, and other motor vehicles behind the truck are completely invisible to the driver.
