wide turn
Truck's gradual curve
A wide turn is one that swings outward, taking more space than necessary.
Vehicles make wide turns when they arc away from the curb or center line before completing the turn: The truck made a wide turn to avoid clipping the guardrail.
Large vehicles require wide turns; for cars, they often indicate inexperience or caution.
