  1. A
    Focus solely on oncoming traffic ahead to judge a safe gap in the flow
  2. Check your right blind spot over your shoulder for overtaking vehiclesCevap
  3. C
    Rely only on your interior mirror to confirm no vehicle is following closely behind
  4. D
    Watch exclusively for pedestrians stepping out between parked cars on the left

Cevap

Check your right blind spot over your shoulder for overtaking vehicles
Before executing a right turn across oncoming traffic, you must carry out a final check into your right-hand blind spot over your shoulder. Even after checking mirrors and signaling, an overtaking road user—such as a motorcyclist or cyclist filtering through traffic—may be situated alongside your vehicle where mirrors cannot detect them.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Apply the standard Mirrors-Signal-Manoeuvre (MSM) routine
Mirrors have been checked and the right turn signal is active to inform other road users of your intention
This establishes clear communication and initial situational awareness before altering vehicle course
2
Perform a final shoulder check into the right-hand blind spot
Confirmation that no motorcycle, bicycle, or other vehicle is currently overtaking on your offside
Door and interior mirrors have physical blind spots where filtering or overtaking road users can be hidden from view just before the turn is executed
