1. Three-Point Contacts: Always
remember to use the three-point connection when entering or to leave the
tractor, to tow or entering or leaving the bridge. It invariably means that
both hands and one leg or both feet and one hand are in contact with your device.
2. Seven-Second Rules: Consider a
minimum gap of seven seconds under ideal conditions. Do not forget to leave
additional space if the conditions are not perfect.
3. Cruise Control: Do not use the
cruise control in ideal conditions.
4. Avoid Unnecessary Hindrances:
Keep both hands on the wheel at 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock. It allows you to
entirely move the steering wheel in both directions, without moving your hands.
5. School Areas/Workspaces. For
everyone to be safe, the speed slows in schools and construction sites.
6. Tractor and Trailer Lighting:
Always keep dim light while driving. Also, make sure your lights are clean.
Being visible is extremely important for your safety.
7. Safe Loading and Unloading:
Ensure adequate safety of vehicles and cargo when loading and unloading goods.
Apply the tractor and trailer parking brake and turn off the tractor
8. Seat Belts: Always use the
seat belt correctly.
9. Speed Limits: For reasons of
personal safety, stay at 63 mph or less than the specified maximum speed.
10. Sunglasses: Sometimes
buildings and vehicles are not visible by the glare of the sun and sunlight
coming from the snow. So, always wear sunglasses to protect your eyes and the
objects nearby.
