Commercial Driver's License

Category - Standard Driving

When making a right hand turn, commercial drivers should:
  1. Swing away from the curb on the right side.
  2. Stay close to the curb on the right side.
  3. Turn wide to the left as they begin the right turn.
  4. Turn quickly to free up any congested traffic behind them.
Explanation
Answer: B - When making a right hand turn, drivers should stay as close to the right hand side curb as possible. Staying close to the curb will stop other drivers from attempting to pass on the right. It is important to keep a watchful eye on the back of the vehicle to ensure it does not drive over the curb or hit anything that may be on the curb. Swinging wide left before making the right turn can cause other drivers to assume the driver is turning left and, again, they may try to pass on the right side of the vehicle.
