Why is wind from the right dangerous when overtaking large vehicles?

Correct answer

Because it does not let me see the carriageway.

Crosswind from the right while overtaking large vehicles is dangerous because it can affect control of the vehicle and increase the risk of leaving the carriageway. This is due to several factors: Deviation from the path: the crosswind can push the vehicle to the left, towards the large vehicle being overtaken, requiring constant correction by the driver. Shielding effect and gusts: large vehicles can act as a screen that suddenly blocks the wind. When passing this “block”, the vehicle may unexpectedly be hit by strong gusts of wind, which can surprise the driver and make it difficult to maintain control. To deal with this situation, it is advisable to: Reduce speed: this helps make wind-related deviations less abrupt. Hold the steering wheel firmly: this allows smooth, controlled adjustments to counteract the wind.
