  3. C
    Reduce the following distance behind preceding traffic to remain within the cleared tire tracks.
  4. D
    Omit the required emergency reflective triangles and spare fuses from the inspection because winter supplies take precedence.

Cevap

Ensure the windshield washer reservoir contains antifreeze washer fluid and clear all snow and ice from windows, mirrors, and lights.
Before operating in winter conditions, drivers must ensure the windshield washer reservoir is filled with washer fluid containing antifreeze to prevent the spray nozzles and glass from icing over. Additionally, all snow and ice must be removed from windows, mirrors, windshield wipers, and exterior lights so the driver has full visibility and other motorists can clearly see the vehicle.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify essential winter pre-trip preparation requirements.
Recognize that freezing temperatures require antifreeze-rated washer fluid to prevent windshield icing and that all exterior glass, mirrors, and lighting surfaces must be completely cleared of snow and ice.
Clear visibility and functional lighting are critical for safe commercial vehicle operation in winter conditions.
2
Evaluate and eliminate unsafe operating and inspection practices.
Reject using retarders on slippery surfaces, shortening following distance, and neglecting standard emergency equipment.
These actions create severe safety hazards, increase skid and collision risks, and violate commercial motor vehicle safety regulations.
