What can be done to check the blind spot?
Preventive and Efficient Driving – Observation and Fuel Saving
Explanation
To **check the blind spot**, it is important to understand that the **rearview mirrors** do not completely cover the area around the vehicle. There is always a space on the sides that cannot be seen through them, known as the **blind spot**. This space is dangerous because you cannot see if there is another vehicle there.
- To ensure there is no other vehicle in the blind spot, you must **slightly turn your head** and look through the window. This allows you to complete the field of vision that the mirrors cannot cover.
- Moving the rearview mirrors outward will not eliminate the blind spot, as there will always be an area that cannot be seen.
- Driving in the center of the lane does not help to check the blind spot, as it does not change the visibility of the mirrors.
Therefore, the best way to check the blind spot is to turn your head to look directly.
