Semi-Trailer Truck (40' Wheelbase) Turning Paths plan

Vehicle turning paths, also known as turning radii, refer to the space a vehicle requires to make a turn. This concept is crucial in urban planning and design, affecting everything from the width of roads and driveways to the layout of parking lots and intersections.
