Challenging Conditions

Commercial drivers face snow, rain, fog, and heavy traffic. Knowing how to adapt is key!

• In bad weather, reduce speed and increase following distance.
• Watch for black ice or hydroplaning hazards.
• Use low-beam headlights in fog.

Navigating Urban and Rural Roads

City driving means tight turns, low bridges, and lots of stops. Rural roads may have narrow lanes, wildlife, or steep grades.

Communication

Use signals, horns, and lights to communicate with other drivers and pedestrians.

Staying Calm

Patience and professional behavior help you handle stressful situations and keep everyone safe.
