What is a common mistake drivers make when interacting with trucks?

Cutting into the open space in front of a truck is a common mistake because trucks require a longer distance to stop compared to smaller vehicles due to their size and heavier weight. When a driver cuts in front of a truck, they may not leave sufficient space for the truck to react to sudden changes in traffic or other hazards. This can lead to dangerous situations, as the truck may not be able to stop in time to avoid an accident. Furthermore, trucks have larger blind spots, and maneuvering quickly in front of them can place drivers in danger since truck drivers may not see them until it's too late. Understanding the dynamics of truck driving helps promote safer interactions on the road.
