Question 2293
Why is wind from the right dangerous when passing large vehicles?
- Because it prevents you from seeing the roadway.
- Because you may lose control of the vehicle and run off the road.
- Because it slows the vehicle down, preventing you from passing.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because you may lose control of the vehicle and run off the road.
The large vehicle temporarily shields you from the crosswind, whose force returns once you finish passing it. This change can destabilize your vehicle and cause a loss of control or departure from the road.
