Explanation
Whenever you want to change lanes, make sure there are no vehicles in the lane you want to enter. First, look in your rearview and side mirrors. Then, look over your shoulder in the direction you plan to move to double-check for any vehicles approaching in the adjacent lane, minimizing the risk of a collision when changing lanes.
