Lane Position And Blind SpotsStandalone practice
Which areas beside a passenger car can be missed by its properly adjusted mirrors?
A travels in the right lane and B is in the adjacent lane beside A’s rear quarter.
Correct answer: To the sides and slightly behind, outside normal mirror view
Why
Even correctly adjusted mirrors leave areas beside and slightly behind a passenger car that they do not show. Before a lane change, use mirrors and a quick shoulder check toward the intended path. Other body styles can have different blind areas.
