While sitting at an intersection, it is recommended to leave at least one car length of space between you and the car ahead of you. This ensures that you have ample room to maneuver in case of an emergency or if the car in front of you needs to reverse suddenly. Additionally, it provides a buffer zone to prevent bumping into the car ahead if you are rear-ended.

The Sinking Fund Approach
You need to remain behind the truck. If a truck is making a right turn from outside of a designated turn lane, it's due to trailer offtracking - the trailer axles take a sharper turn path than the power unit. This is something done out of necessity due to the vehicle's length, and often because roadways were designed at a time when semi-trailers were considerably shorter than they are today. Pittsburgh and Wichita are two cities in particular which come to mind in regards to this.
