Zero Hero Safety Tips: Respect the Rigs
This week’s Zero Hero safety tip is all about sharing the road with semi-trucks, also known as big rigs. Because of their size, these trucks have large blind spots, often called "No-Zones," where drivers may not be able to see other vehicles. A good rule to remember: if you can't see the truck driver’s face in their side mirrors, they likely can't see you. Give trucks plenty of space, avoid lingering in blind spots, and leave extra room when merging or pulling in front of them.
