  4. D

Cevap

Look all around the vehicle, check your blind spots over both shoulders, and give way to oncoming traffic
Before carrying out a manoeuvre such as a U-turn that blocks both lanes of traffic, you must carry out a thorough all-round observation check. This includes using all mirrors, looking over both shoulders to cover blind spots, and ensuring you do not force any other road user to slow down or swerve.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Assess the intended manoeuvre and identify potential risks
Recognise that a U-turn spans across both lanes of traffic and creates significant vulnerability to collisions from all angles.
Before carrying out any major manoeuvre that turns across traffic flow, comprehensive awareness of all surrounding road users is mandatory.
2
Perform full 360-degree observations including physical over-the-shoulder blind spot checks
Verify that no vehicles, cyclists, or pedestrians are hidden in mirror blind spots or approaching from either direction.
Mirrors alone do not provide a complete view around the car, making physical shoulder checks essential before turning across the carriageway.
