You may be forced in fast-moving traffic. Older bridges may have cement surfaces with built-up patches that developed into large bumps. You may encounter strong winds on bridges that cross large bodies of water or land. Before crossing, look for a sign or notice explaining bridge regulations or check with local authorities. Obey the posted regulations on bridges.
Blind spots are areas on either side of a vehicle's rear fenders.
Avoid driving next to the right rear fender of passing vehicles. The driver may not see you and turn right suddenly or crowd you off the road. If you have to pass a vehicle, warn the driver that you are in a blind spot by blowing the horn. You should always keep your lights on to increase your chances of being seen. Sometimes you cannot see a vehicle passing on the left in the rearview mirror.
