  4. D

Cevap

Thoroughly check both exterior door mirrors and look around to cover vehicle blind spots
When the interior rear-view mirror is obscured by passengers or cargo, the driver must compensate by checking both exterior wing mirrors and physically looking over their shoulders to check blind spots before applying signals or moving the vehicle.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the observation limitations caused by the obstructed interior mirror.
Recognise that direct rearward vision through the central mirror is unavailable.
An obstructed rear window enlarges the unmonitored zone directly behind the car.
2
Adapt the pre-manoeuvre observation routine using exterior mirrors and direct head turns.
All peripheral areas and blind spots not covered by the side mirrors are checked.
The Highway Code requires all-round observation and blind spot verification before signalling and carrying out any manoeuvre.
