Before passing another vehicle, you should:

Keep your eyes fixed on the vehicle you are passing.
Check your blind spots.
Flash your high beams.
Pump the brake to build pressure before starting the maneuver.
Explanation

When passing a vehicle, don’t rely solely on your side and rear-view mirrors, as they don’t cover your blind spots. Instead, quickly glance over your shoulder to check for any vehicles approaching from behind. If the road is clear, activate your turn signal to alert other drivers before starting the pass.
