What does the term "no zones" refer to with trucks?

• A. The areas directly behind the truck's bumper
• B. Regions inside the truck's cab
• C. The space around the truck where the driver has perfect visibility
• D. Areas around trucks where the driver has limited visibility; avoid lingering in those zones.

Answer: (D)

No zones are the blind spots around a truck where the driver cannot see you in the mirrors. Because trucks are long and tall, their mirrors don’t provide complete visibility to every area. If you linger in these zones, the driver may not notice you, especially when the truck is changing lanes, turning, or stopping. The safest approach is to pass quickly and move back into a position where you’re visible in the driver’s side mirrors, and give the truck more space to maneuver. These zones are not areas inside the cab or spots with perfect visibility; they’re the areas around the truck where visibility is limited.
