Portland Trucking Accident Lawyers
Driver Safety
There is no way to absolutely guarantee that you will not be involved in a truck driving accident. However, there are particular actions that you can take in order to decrease the likelihood that you will be involved in an accident, and these include:
- Observing the rules of the road
- Avoiding a truck driver’s blind spots
- Refraining from speeding
- When passing a truck, allow enough room before you change lanes again into the truck driver’s path
- Do not pass on the right side of a truck when it is making a right-hand turn
- Try to avoid passing a truck on the right, as the driver’s visibility is decreased at that point
- Do not drink and drive
