You are driving in slow-moving traffic on a multi-lane road in wet conditions and intend to change lanes. What should you do to ensure the safety of motorcyclists?

  1. A
    Focus solely on the vehicle directly ahead and steer across as soon as a gap appears.
  2. B
    Maintain standard dry-weather following distances and change lanes without adjusting your margins.
  3. Check all mirrors and look around into your blind spots for filtering motorcyclists before moving.Cevap
  4. D
    Rely entirely on your interior rear-view mirror and avoid looking over your shoulder.

Cevap

Check all mirrors and look around into your blind spots for filtering motorcyclists before moving.
In slow-moving or queuing traffic, motorcyclists often filter between lanes. Because motorcycles are narrow and can be easily hidden in vehicle blind spots, drivers must always check both mirrors and look over their shoulder into their blind spots before changing lanes.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Assess the driving scenario and identify the specific hazard associated with motorcyclists in slow traffic.
Recognise that motorcyclists often filter between lanes of slow or stationary vehicles.
Motorcycles are narrow and can approach quickly between lanes, making them hard to spot.
2
Determine the required safety checks before changing lane position.
Perform thorough mirror checks and a physical shoulder check into blind spots.
Mirrors alone do not show vehicles riding alongside your rear quarter panels.
