Lower speed before entering curves to prevent rollover. Trucks have a higher center of gravity and risk tipping at excessive speeds.

Downshift before descent to control speed and avoid overheating brakes. Continuous brake use on slopes can cause brake failure.

Wet roads reduce tire grip. Lower speed minimizes hydroplaning risk and ensures the truck maintains control on slippery surfaces.

Reduce speed, turn on low-beam headlights, and maintain a safe following distance to prevent collisions in low-visibility conditions.

Trucks require longer distances to overtake safely. Speed should be adjusted to allow smooth re-entry without cutting off other vehicles.

Heavier loads increase stopping distance. Lower speeds help maintain stability and avoid brake overheating during prolonged driving.

Strong winds can push a trailer sideways. Slowing down increases stability and prevents the trailer from swaying into other lanes.

Large trucks take longer to stop. Slowing early prevents running red lights and ensures smoother traffic flow.

Trucks must slow down to meet urban speed limits (often 40 to 60 km/h) to protect pedestrians, cyclists, and local traffic.

Apply engine braking and lower gears, avoiding sudden brake application to prevent jackknifing or rollovers.

Many Saudi trucks are fitted with speed limiters that cap maximum speed. Drivers must not attempt to bypass these devices.

Towed trailers can sway at high speeds. Lower speed improves control, especially during turns or lane changes.

Fixed and mobile speed cameras monitor truck speeds across highways. Exceeding limits results in automatic fines.

Construction zones require reduced speeds (often below 50 km/h) to protect workers and navigate uneven road surfaces safely.
