For what must you always allow an extra space cushion when driving?

Large trucks
Motorcycles
Bicyclists
Pedestrians

The correct answer is: Pedestrians

When driving, it is important to always allow an extra space cushion for pedestrians. This is because pedestrians are the most vulnerable users of the road and could be easily injured if they are hit by a vehicle. While it is important to maintain a safe distance from all vehicles on the road, it is especially crucial to do so with pedestrians as they have no physical protection in case of an impact. Large trucks, motorcycles, and bicyclists may also require extra space, but not as much as pedestrians.
