You are driving a combination vehicle around a sharp turn. What should you keep in mind about the trailer's path?
Pick an answer
Correct!
Not quite. The correct answer is highlighted.
Correct answer to question 6 (Combination Vehicles): The trailer's wheels track a shorter path than the tractor's, so swing wide enough to keep the trailer's rear wheels clear
Why
The rear trailer wheels cut a shorter, tighter path than the tractor's front wheels, so a turn taken too tight can run the trailer's wheels over a curb or into another vehicle.
