What does the strip map indicate for drivers?

• A. Checkpoints on strip map given to each driver.
• B. Fuel points along the route.
• C. Weather conditions.
• D. Fuel efficiency targets.

Answer: (C)

The strip map is used to convey weather conditions along the route to drivers so they can anticipate how weather will affect driving and adjust their actions accordingly. Knowing forecasted or current weather on each segment helps drivers plan for reduced visibility, slick or icy surfaces, wind effects, or standing water, and it informs choices like speed, following distance, and whether to take alternate routes. This at-a-glance weather information supports safer, more coordinated movement of the convoy. Other items tend to be covered by separate materials: checkpoints and other route notes are typically shown on route cards or convoy briefs, fuel points are part of fuel planning documents, and fuel efficiency targets are performance metrics rather than navigational or safety information on the strip map.
