Question:4

In your opinion, is the truck positioned correctly within the curve?

When driving on a sharp curve, it is required to stay in it as shortly as possible; hence his position is correct.

In sharp curves it is necessary to “cut” through the curve, in order to reduce the centrifugal force (the force that acts on the vehicle while it turns).

When there is no other vehicle in the curve it is possible to be positioned anywhere within it.

No, the truck driver is not keeping to the right of the road and his position presents a risk to any vehicle coming from the opposite direction.

Question:11

Is it enough to signal only when you begin to drive?

Yes, when starting to drive we can make do with just signaling. Then, when we need to merge with traffic, we will have time to look around.

No, signaling doesn’t give you any right. You need to make sure that you look around correctly in addition to signaling.

Yes, unnecessary actions, besides the required signaling, waste precious time and create unnecessary tensions.

Yes, when we start to drive we are lawfully obliged to signal. It is the responsibility of other road users to be careful.

Lane change should be done in two stages: First deviating and then communicating with the other drivers.

You should pass to the other lane through the shortest diagonal distance and as quickly as possible.

First perform a check and glance at the mirrors, then check the lane you want to pass to, verify that you can pass to it and then deviate moderately (diagonally) to the other lane.

How can you be safe while driving on a congested road?

By sticking close to the vehicle in front.
