So common.

Yeah, I've had a pretty bad argument at like a –

nightclubby pub situation.

Nightclub, oh no.

Like just downstairs and the poor bouncer was just like, these girls are fucking nuts.

And there was like music blaring in the background screaming at each other, not good, not good.

Well, I'm sure we'll hear more stories similar to these ones right afterward from today's sponsor.

Shushies, it's totally normal to feel a little stressed when we find ourselves next to a huge truck on the road.

We've all experienced that moment when we're minding our business and a truck drives right up beside us.

Suddenly we need to turn the music right down and get hyper-focused.

This is an incredibly common feeling.

In fact, 67% of young female drivers feel anxious driving near heavy vehicles, which is exactly why the Don't Muck With A Truck campaign exists, so we can feel more confident and prepared when driving.

When it comes to truck safety, there are a couple of easy rules to remember.

Firstly, trucks need way more space than cars when turning, so it's really important to give them room and not squeeze in beside them.

Same goes with pulling in front of a truck.

Make sure you wait for a dedicated overtaking lane or a long stretch of road and give them three to four times more space in front than you would a car.

And as always, stay out of their blind spots.

If you're driving next to the truck or you're too close in front or behind, you're basically invisible.

Driving near trucks doesn't have to be scary.

Give them plenty of space on the road and you can help make sure everyone gets home safe.
