The first major difference is the trailer, which turns on a pivot point. Another major difference is the blind spot. In a car, you can look out the rear window at things directly behind you - not so with a tractor-trailer.

These are items you would be more likely to find on a farm tractor than on a tractor-trailer. A tongue is mounted to the frame (or an auxiliary arm), and can facilitate a hitch or mount for pulling a trailer. A drawbar is the bar which extends from the tow vehicle (or another trailer) to a dolly under the front of a trailer. You're not likely to find a tongue on a tractor-trailer. The primary means of coupling is the fifth wheel, and some tractors may additionally be equipped with a pintle mounted on the back of the chassis. Drawbars are more common to dump trucks which transport pup trailers behind them, and doubles combinations which require more significant separation of the two trailers than what a typically A-congear provides.
What is following distance? Following distance is the space between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you while driving. It's important for all drivers to maintain a safe following distance, so that they have time to safely stop in case the vehicle in front of them brakes abruptly.
A pup trailer is a trailer which is being pulled behind another trailer.
not exactly sure, but I'd assume that it's exactly the same as driving behind a tractor, keep your distance.
It most likely is safe to walk behind a tractor. However, if someone were to walk too close behind the tractor and not pay attention to where he or she was walking, he might get his/her feet caught in something. All in all, if someone were paying attention, walking behind a tractor does not seem hazardous.
