As one of our #VoicesofSafety, Keith wants you to remember that buses and large trucks have enormous blind spots that make cars, bicyclists, and pedestrians difficult to see.

Suggested Post: Large trucks and buses have huge blind spots. Keep a safe distance from potential blind spots and assume the driver can’t see you! #OurRoads


Long Stops:

Suggested Post: Did you know a truck can weigh up to 80,000 pounds? That’s 20 to 30 times the weight of a regular vehicle. Because of their weight, it takes trucks an extra long distance to stop. Be smart and don’t cut off your bigger neighbors on the road! #OurRoads


Wide Turns:

Suggested Post: Commercial vehicles require extra room to turn. If a truck or bus has its turn signal on, never try to squeeze by or get between the vehicle and the curb. #OurRoads
