What are a truck's blind spots called?
I’m studying for my written driving exam, but I don’t have my *Rules of the Road* book handy. I know you’re supposed to stay out of a truck’s blind spots, but I can’t remember what they call them. What are the blind spots of a truck called?

Long-haul trucks have several blind spots when they’re on the road, so you want to be aware at all times when you’re driving near one. A truck’s blind spots are called no zones. This aptly named phrase indicates where you never want to be when you’re riding next to a truck on the interstate or other multiple-lane roads.
A truck’s no zones are located:
- Directly behind the truck
- Directly in front of the truck
- On each side of the truck about halfway between the front and rear of the truck
Because of the danger of riding in these zones and the increased chance of
an accident
, avoid them at all costs.Once you pass your exam and have your driver’s license, the next step is to get a car. But before you take the car home, shop around for affordable car insurance with the
