Question 3076 · Motorcycle theory test
When overtaking a slow-moving truck, what hazard might arise?
Pick an answer to test yourself.
Correct answer
The driver of a vehicle on a road to your left up ahead is turning right and is unaware of your presence.
Official explanation
When you are preparing to overtake a slow-moving truck or large vehicle, there are many things to be aware of as a motorcyclist. You need to be aware not only of the vehicle ahead but also of other situations that may develop. Other road users may do something unexpected and may not always be as aware as they should be of a rider’s presence.
