This has probably come up before but do you think it is taught or necessary to look over your shoulder to check blindspot when changing lanes on the motorway?
I just need to add an edit. I’m specifically referring to looking over your shoulder on a motorway. Checking mirrors and blindspot is not under question
It depends greatly on the vehicle and how my mirrors are setup. I’ve driven far larger tractor trailer combos than most, dump trucks heavy equipment on a lowboy too. There are many instances when looking over my shoulder is just as pointless at looking at the floor.
Now, people that look at a phone for anything while driving, those are the fools that should be crucified. People that exit at the last second from the fast lane should be shot and buried too. If you have to look at a phone, use your car’s phone mode by forcing your transmission from D for drive to P for phone. It will solve all the phone driving problems. If you do not own the freeway, your primary responsibility is to everyone else on the road, and your ass comes last. You miss your exit, so the FnA what. Next time you’ll learn how to do it right, and we all get to have a next time.
