Brake before the curve, not during it. This keeps the truck stable and prevents skidding or rollovers.

Shift to a lower gear before descent. This prevents overheating brakes and loss of stopping power.

Inspect straps and locks during stops. Loose cargo can shift, causing instability and accidents.

Stop in a safe place. Turkish law requires 45-minute breaks every 4.5 hours of driving.

High beams reflect in fog. Use low beams, reduce speed, and keep a safe distance from vehicles ahead.

Overtake only where legal, with clear sight. Avoid blind spots and ensure lane space before returning.

Slow to 30 km/h near schools. Pedestrian priority is strictly enforced in Turkey.

Stop if gates are down or lights flash. Cross only when safe and completely clear.

Use parking brake, turn wheels toward curb, and use wheel chocks to prevent rolling.

Reduce speed and hold the wheel firmly. High winds can destabilize tall or light loads.

Use low beams in tunnels. Follow speed limits and avoid lane changes inside.

Check headlights, brake lights, and indicators before departure. Lights improve visibility and safety.

Stop at red lights and yield where required. Trucks need longer stopping distance than cars.

Apply steady pressure on brakes. Avoid sudden jerks to prevent jackknifing.

Allow at least 1.5 meters lateral space to protect riders from turbulence.

Use low gear uphill and downhill. This prevents loss of power or brake failure.

Use acceleration lanes to merge safely. Do not force other drivers to brake suddenly.

Keep at least a 4-second gap to avoid collisions in sudden stops.

Leave 1.5 meters clearance. Truck wind can destabilize smaller vehicles.
