Yes, that's all commonsensical, but if the front of a truck is 1.5m away from you, and the truck continues driving in a straight line, then instinct and memory tells you all is well...until someone drives a vehicle with variable widths like here.
This is exactly the sort of situation that the ladies get killed in because of their lesser spatial awareness.
