What should you do if you are following a truck and can't see the truck's two outside mirrors?

If you cannot see the truck's outside mirrors, the truck driver cannot see your vehicle either! You are traveling too closely; you are not keeping a clear and safe distance. You will not be able to avert an accident if the trucker slams on his brakes.
You need to get off his bumper / rear. Slow down, but do so safely, until you get some distance. Don't worry about drivers behind you-- they will go around you before they give you a chance to get out of your predicament.
When you have enough distance and it is safe, pass the truck (*if passing is allowed on the road).
