Questions (3)
1. To avoid your vehicle's wheels going over the curb or sidewalk while making a right turn, what should you do?
- Make the turn tight
- Drive well ahead into the intersection before turning to the right ✓
- Turn on your hazard lights
- Slow down considerably before the turn
Answer: B. Drive well ahead into the intersection before turning to the right
You should drive well into the intersection before you start turning right, so the rear wheels follow a wider arc and stay off the curb. The handbook explains that a long vehicle's rear wheels track inside the path of the front wheels, which it calls off-track. To handle that, you lead the turning arc by the amount of off-track; otherwise the rear wheels of the unit can run over curbs and sidewalks. It says plainly that you may need to proceed well into the intersection before beginning the turn. The passage also suggests taking more space from the road you are leaving than from the road you are entering, moving close to the left side of your lane before turning.
