Commercial Driver's License

Category - Standard Driving

If a driver finds that they are being tailgated, the driver should NOT do which of the following?
  1. Pull off the road.
  2. Speed up.
  3. Keep the same speed.
  4. Signal early if a turn is coming up.
Explanation
Answer: B - If being tailgated by another driver, commercial drivers should not speed up to try to increase the distance between their vehicle and the other vehicle. Speeding up will only cause a worse accident should something unforeseen occur. It is always better to maintain your speed and allow the other driver to pass when they feel comfortable doing so.
