What must you be aware of when driving your lorry through narrow passageways?
The exterior rear-view mirrors are wider than the vehicle width indicated in the vehicle’s documents
The vehicle body sways on uneven surfaces
The exterior rear-view mirrors are taken into account in the vehicle width indicated
Here is Our AI Assistant's Explanation
You selected both correct answers. When driving a lorry through narrow passageways, you need to be aware that the exterior rear-view mirrors usually extend beyond the width stated in your vehicle documents, so the real width of your vehicle on the road is wider than just the body. Also, the body of the lorry can sway, especially on uneven surfaces, which increases the risk of hitting something at the sides. Remember, the width shown in the vehicle documents does not include the mirrors, so always account for this extra width and swaying movement to avoid collisions. This will help you drive safely through tight spaces.
