Explanation

Before changing lanes on a multi-lane highway, look in your rearview and side mirrors and quickly check your blind spots to make sure there are no vehicles in the lane you want to enter, and that no vehicle is about to pass you. Signal early enough so other drivers will know your plans in advance.
