If a truck is trying to pass you, you can help the truck driver by

• A. Keeping to the far side of your lane and reducing your speed slightly.
• B. Increasing your speed.
• C. Keeping to the near side of your lane and reducing your speed slightly.
• D. Reducing your speed and driving in a No-Zone.

Answer: (A)

Giving large trucks extra room to pass is the idea. When a truck is trying to pass, slowing slightly and shifting toward the far side of your lane creates a wider, clearer gap for the truck to move into and complete the pass safely. This helps compensate for the truck’s slower acceleration and longer stopping distance, reducing the chance of a close call as the truck returns to its lane. Avoid increasing your speed, which makes the pass harder for the truck; avoid staying toward the near side or driving in the truck’s blind spots (No-Zone), because that narrows the available space and increases risk.
