To help a truck or bus driver see you, what should you do?

To help a truck or bus driver see you, avoiding driving on either side is an effective strategy because larger vehicles have significant blind spots that can make it difficult for their drivers to see smaller vehicles around them. By steering clear of these blind spots—typically located directly behind and to the sides of the truck or bus—you are minimizing the chance of being involved in a collision.

It's also worth noting that while other actions, like sounding your horn or flashing your lights, may draw attention, they do not guarantee that the driver will see you or be aware of your presence. Not passing them can sometimes create dangerous situations, especially if it leads to unintended delays or unnecessary road congestion. Therefore, staying out of their blind spots is a practical and proactive way to ensure safety on the road.
