After you pass a large truck, when may you move back in front of it?
The rule
Large trucks can't stop as quickly as cars. After passing one, don't cut back in until you can see its cab in your rear-view mirror, and never slow suddenly in front of it.
Don't cut in too soon after passing a large truck: it can't stop as quickly as a car. Wait until you see its cab in your rear-view mirror.
From the Official Florida Driver License Handbook, page 84. This question is our own wording of that rule. The handbook and the DMV have the final word.
