Which directions have blind spots on a large truck body?
1 Answers
The blind spots of a large truck body are as follows: 1. Front blind zone: The front belongs to a semi-blind zone. Generally, the area from the front of the vehicle to about 2 meters behind the cab and 1.5 meters wide is a blind zone, with obvious visual blind spots close to the body. 2. Left blind zone: The left blind zone is near the rear of the vehicle's cargo compartment, relatively smaller than the right blind zone. However, with the obstruction of the A-pillar and mirrors, the driver may not promptly notice pedestrians, especially children. 3. Right blind zone: The right blind zone is the most dangerous among all blind spots of large trucks. When turning, the front and rear wheels do not follow the same path, creating a visual blind spot due to the inner wheel difference. If pedestrians or vehicles are in this area, the truck driver cannot see anything, leading to potentially disastrous consequences. 4. Rear blind zone: The direct rear of a large truck is a complete blind zone, making it impossible to see pedestrians, non-motorized vehicles, or motor vehicles approaching from behind.
