Off-tracking or cheating causes which of these to follow the wider pass while making a turn?

Thank you for any suggestions.

Turn Wide
When a vehicle goes around a corner, the rear wheels follow a different path than the front wheels. This is called “offtracking” or “cheating.” Figure 6-4 to the right shows how offtracking causes the path followed by a tractor-semi to be wider than the rig itself. Longer vehicles will offtrack more. The rear wheels of the powered unit (truck or tractor) will offtrack some, and the rear wheels of the trailer will offtrack even more. Steer the front end wide enough around a corner so the rear end does not run over the curb, pedestrians, other vehicles, etc. However, keep the rear of your vehicle close to the curb. This will stop other drivers from passing you on the right.

If you cannot complete your turn without entering another traffic lane, turn wide as you complete the turn (see Figures 6-5-A and 6-5-B below). This is better than swinging wide to the left before starting the turn because it will keep other drivers from passing you on the right. If drivers pass on the right, you may collide with them when you turn. - https://www.truckingtruth.com/cdl-training-program/page48/dr...

Na zakrętach samochód prowadzić też należy po większym łuku aby uniknąć zahaczenia o krawężnik lub inny pojazd. - https://mskamp.pl/blog/jazda-z-przyczepa-poradnik

Kręć nie więcej niż pół obrotu w lewo/prawo. Pamiętaj że nawet jadąc na wyprostowanych kołach zestaw lekko już złamany będzie się łamał coraz bardziej. Unikaj mocnego łamania zestawu, wjeżdżaj w miarę możliwości po większym łuku; i co najważniejsze im wolniej tym łatwiej. - http://www.wagaciezka.com/viewtopic.php?t=33717 - siódmy wpis (BartekSW)
