Should drivers facilitate the movement of goods transport vehicles in built-up areas?
Right of way
Explanation
Drivers must **facilitate the movement of freight transport vehicles** whenever possible. This is because, in traffic situations, larger or heavier vehicles, such as trucks and tractor-trailers, have certain **priorities** and **special needs**.
- In **narrow areas**, trucks and freight transport vehicles have priority over cars and other smaller vehicles. This is because these vehicles are more difficult to maneuver and require more space to circulate.
- When **overtaking**, drivers must allow larger vehicles to perform the maneuver safely. This includes not increasing speed and facilitating the return of the overtaken vehicle to its lane. Large or heavy vehicles must reduce speed if they cannot move to the right edge of the lane, indicating to the driver behind that they can overtake.
For these reasons, it is important for drivers to facilitate the movement of freight transport vehicles whenever possible, to ensure safe and efficient traffic flow on the roads.
