Trucks have more severe blind spots than cars; therefore, you must always keep in mind that:

  1. If you cannot see the truck driver in his side mirror, he cannot see you

  2. Truck drivers have better visibility than car drivers

  3. Truck drivers are more aware of surrounding vehicles

  4. It is safe to tailgate a truck

The correct answer is: If you cannot see the truck driver in his side mirror, he cannot see you

Trucks have larger blind spots compared to cars due to their size and design, making it crucial for other drivers to be aware of these blind spots to ensure safety on the road. Choice A is the correct answer because if you cannot see the truck driver in their side mirror, it indicates that the truck driver cannot see you either. This understanding is essential to prevent accidents caused by being in a truck's blind spot. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not directly address the issue of blind spots and safe driving around trucks. Truck drivers do not necessarily have better visibility than car drivers just because they are driving larger vehicles, and assuming that truck drivers are more aware of surrounding vehicles can lead to complacency on the road. Tailgating a truck is never safe and can further exacerbate the risk of being in a truck's blind spot.
