Look at the zones marked in the picture. Which routine covers both the mirror areas and the blind spots when you switch lanes?

Answer options

Why

Mirrors show the green zones, but the red blind spots beside the car stay hidden unless you turn your head. Signaling first warns other drivers, the mirror check covers the space behind you, and the shoulder glance covers what the mirrors miss.
