What is a “No Zones” area regarding large trucks?

The concept of “No Zones” refers specifically to the blind spots surrounding large trucks where the driver has limited visibility of smaller vehicles. These areas are critical for both drivers of large trucks and those in passenger vehicles to understand. Since trucks have significant blind spots directly in front, behind, and on both sides, vehicles within these zones may go unseen by truck drivers, increasing the risk of collisions.

Understanding that these blind spots are inherent to the design and size of large trucks highlights the importance of safe driving practices around such vehicles. Awareness of these No Zones encourages drivers of smaller vehicles to avoid lingering in blind spots, enabling safer navigation and reducing the chances of accidents. This knowledge is crucial for maintaining safe distances and ensuring responsible road sharing between different types of vehicles.
