Correct!

Not quite. The correct answer is highlighted.

Correct answer to question 58 (Combination Vehicles): The trailer's length and width leave less margin for a merging vehicle to misjudge, and the driver has larger blind spots to cover

Why

A long trailer creates extended blind spots along its sides, and a merging driver may not judge its length correctly, so extra side space gives both parties room to react.
