What are the danger areas around trucks and buses?

Large trucks and buses have huge blind spots – or No Zones – around the front, back and sides of the vehicle. If you can't see the driver in the truck's side mirror, assume that the driver can't see you. Don't drive in a blind spot – slow down or move ahead to stay visible.

The “Danger Zone” is the area on all sides of the bus where children are in the most danger of not being seen by the driver (ten feet in front of the bus where the driver may be too high to see a child, ten feet on either side of the bus where a child may be in the driver's blind spot, and the area behind the bus).
