A video taken by a major transportation company using a drone has become a hot topic.
When a large truck makes a left turn, the video clearly shows the "inner wheel difference" in which the rear tires pass inside the front tires.
This video was taken from the sky using a drone at a driving school by Seino Transportation, which has its headquarters in Ogaki City, Gifu Prefecture.
Accidents involving left turns due to "inner wheel discrepancy" are common in large vehicles with a long distance between the front and rear tires.
And since the instructor at the driving school of the group company had a drone piloting qualification, he asked for the shooting.
When the video was posted on Twitter at the end of last month, there were reactions such as "easy to understand", "I want it to be widely known", "I showed it to children who started bicycle commuting", and "Good teaching material for accident prevention
"

Mr. Ryuichi Tokimoto of the Safety Promotion Department, who proposed shooting the truck from above, said, "I have been driving trucks for 32 years, but as an instructor, I felt that it was difficult to explain. I didn't have a video where I could objectively see how the truck would move, so I suggested shooting it from above.
Kazuya Hatta of the Management Strategy Department, who posted the video on Twitter, commented on the response, "I was honestly surprised that the response was the greatest among the posts I've posted on Twitter so far. Not only people from the same industry, but also the general public. He commented, and I felt that it helped raise awareness of traffic safety.I would like to continue disseminating information on traffic safety and revitalize the logistics industry."
