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

    I was taught to always use all means for checking, to never assume the mirrors are correct and especially never assume you can see everywhere that way.

    Of course now that I have 360° cameras, that seems silly. At this point my car has a lot of features but my kids are new drivers so I feel like I Have to act as if some features are not there to set an example for them. Chances are very good they’ll have starter cars without 360° cameras and their habits need to be safe with that
