ROAD SAFETY FOR BUS & TRUCK DRIVERS

Take Proper Rest

  • Long‑distance driving can cause fatigue and slow reactions. Resting for a few hours keeps your mind alert and prevents dangerous mistakes on the road.

Keep to Your Lane

  • Heavy vehicles must stay in their assigned lanes. Changing lanes suddenly can create major accidents. A stable lane makes the road safer for smaller vehicles.

Drive at Safe Speed

  • High speeds make it difficult to control large vehicles. Driving slowly gives you better stability and reduces braking distance.

Check Your Vehicle Before a Trip

  • Tires, brakes, headlights, reflectors, and cargo locks must be checked. Large vehicles cause major damage if something fails. Regular checking prevents disasters.

Use Horn Wisely

  • Horn is for safety, not aggression. Use short honks to alert smaller vehicles and pedestrians. Avoid loud or continuous honking.
