Vans are built in a different way than passenger cars.

You should pay attention to the consequences:

  • Vans are stiff. Keep a low speed in speed bumps and over bumps.
  • Vans are longer and wider than passenger cars. Be careful when taking sharp turns around corners.
  • The van is often taller than the passenger car. Watch out under bridges, overpasses and into community garages.
  • The larger vans run on diesel. Keep this in mind when refueling.
  • Vans do not have the same acceleration ability as passenger cars.
  • Think well before you make an overtake.
  • Never back down without having someone to direct you.
  • Never drive the car with any of the doors open.
  • Remember to lock the cargo compartment when you leave the car.
  • Recall that the car is heavier than a passenger car, and therefore needs a greater braking distance. Keep a good distance from the car in front.

Good luck with the work!
