How do semitrailers turn
As a large truck, semi-trailer has some driving rules that are very different from small vehicles. In the training of semi-trailer drivers, it will be pointed out how to avoid turning around when causing violations. The following three situations should be paid attention to by drivers.
1. Common-sense misunderstanding: "no left turn" crossroads banned, motor vehicle cannot turn when there is a turn left ban logo.some owners think that intersection only ban left without turning logo is allowed to enter, but this is a misunderstanding, usually unless the intersection has special instructions, otherwise prohibit intersection turn left means turn prohibited.
2. Semi-trailers must not turn at railway crossings, crosswalks, bridges, sharp bends, steep slopes, tunnels or dangerous sections of the road. It is important to note that the crosswalk mentioned here refers to the crosswalk in the middle of the road.
3. When the center line is a solid yellow line, in addition to the intersection, if there is no sign and mark forbidding turning, the edge grinding is also allowed. In particular, it should be noted that whether the center line of the road is a solid line, whether it is a single yellow line or a double yellow line, means "do not turn". Semi-trailer drivers should also be aware that there are individual roads marked with "yellow virtual lines" : one double yellow line is solid, the other is dotted, which means that overtaking and turning are prohibited on the solid side, while overtaking and turning are allowed on the dotted side. Semitrailer driver training will have corresponding driving rules and regulations, these need to pay attention.
