When driving a commercial vehicle that is top heavy and has a high center of gravity, drivers must be especially aware of:
  1. Rolling over during turns, curves or sudden swerves
  2. Loss of control during stops
  3. Loss of control during acceleration
  4. Loss of control while backing up
Explanation
Answer: A - When driving a commercial vehicle with a high center of gravity, commercial drivers must be especially careful when making turns, on curves, and if they have to swerve to avoid a problem. These actions can all lead to rollovers. Top heavy vehicles will normally behave fine during stops, starts, and backing up as long as these actions are in a straight line.
