Roll Back

pic2.gif

Always leave plenty of room between your vehicle and the truck to prevent roll back incidents which can happen when a truck driver is forced to stop on an upgrade.

As the truck driver takes his foot off the brake and releases the clutch pedal, the truck may roll back a few feet. Remember he may have a very heavy load and has many gears to shift to get going.
