What should you do when driving a stacker and encountering another stacker coming in the opposite direction?

When driving a stacker and encountering another stacker coming from the opposite direction, the safest option is to pass through to the right. This approach maintains a standard protocol for navigating tight spaces and ensures that both operators have a clear line of sight, which is crucial for avoiding collisions.

Passing to the right aligns with the common practice of keeping to the right when two vehicles meet, similar to rules of road navigation. This reduces the risk of any sudden movements that might occur if a stacker passes too closely or tries an unexpected maneuver.

If other options were considered, such as stopping to wait for the other stacker to pass, this could lead to potential accidents if the approaching stacker does not anticipate the stop—or if there is not enough space to safely halt. Reversing until clear can also create confusion and increase the chances of collisions if both drivers misjudge the necessary distance. Keeping a consistent flow of movement by maneuvering safely on the right is the best practice in such scenarios.
