    Rely entirely on your exterior mirrors because they cover all areas around your car
  2. Turn your head to look over your shoulder to check the blind spotCevap
  3. C
    Flash your headlights to warn oncoming drivers that you are taking priority

    Focus your attention solely on the vehicle parked directly in front to avoid clipping it

Cevap

Turn your head to look over your shoulder to check the blind spot
Before pulling away from the kerb, a driver must turn their head to check over their shoulder into the blind spot. Mirrors cannot cover every angle around the vehicle, and vulnerable road users like cyclists and motorcyclists can easily be hidden from mirror view.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Complete routine mirror checks and signal your intention
You establish awareness of traffic directly behind and within the mirror fields of view
Mirrors provide the initial view of approaching vehicles but have optical limitations created by the vehicle's body structure
2
Perform a final physical shoulder check into the blind spot area just before releasing the brake and moving off
Any vehicle, cyclist, or pedestrian positioned in the mirror blind spot is identified directly
A direct look ensures that no road user is in the blind spot zone before the car crosses the line of traffic
