2) The yard, woods, and dorms, in the middle of the map, is most likely areas for the players to hide and wait for their prey.
3) Shipping yard, gas stations, and large boilers/silos are the last areas.
Expert Game Tips
Unlike PUBG and Fortnite, you won’t have any UI clues to figure out which part of the map is getting more dangerous. Therefore you will have to move fast. The three areas mentioned above are most likely to be the spawn area where you will have to reach, but there will be a massive concentration of players.
Identify Spawn Points
While playing, you can’t be on a place on the map for much longer because you would have to reach the spawn point for safety. There are points on every side of the map.
However, for extraction, you will have to push yourself to the opposite side. It is very important that you recognize which area you have been spawned. To move further, you will have to know where you are. Therefore try to watch for the signs mentioned below.
1) If you see the Storage sheds and red warehouse, then you are in the left area of the map.
2) The far side of the map has shipping yard equipment or a gas station.
3) If you notice woods, then you are most likely in the middle of the map.
Escaping from the Tarkov Customs Checkpoints

The checkpoints are a dangerous area because, at a certain point in the age, every player has to cross the checkpoints. This makes the place dangerous as players can hide for you and attack, also the players are concentrated in the checkpoints.
Expert Game Tips
Checkpoints are the place for you if you wish to get a few quick kills. Also, players can attack you from long distance, and you will be dead before you see them. If you secure a good spot near the checkpoints than you can be invisible and can win the game by killing the players who dare to cross the checkpoint.

The bridges are the link between three parts of the map, and these are the only three ways for the players to get around.
It means players will eventually head to the bridge in the game if you secure a good spot in the early game from where you can spot all the crossing players. Then you will have a great advantage in sabotaging others and winning the match.
