Message I haven't really thought about lack of vision in front of a truck, but I always get way up ahead of them before getting over in front of them because I know it takes longer for trucks to stop, which is another good reason not to cut in close.

The first time I saw the "No-Zone" sign on a truck I found it very enlightening. Something like this - avoid the yellow areas:

This is also good to keep in mind:

"Front blind spot: when passing a large vehicle, make sure that you can see the entire front of the truck or bus in your inside rear-view mirror before you pull back in front. It takes a large vehicle twice the time and room to stop as it does a car."

Drive carefully in those small cars!
