Explanation
Blind spots are areas on the sides and behind vehicles that drivers cannot see using only their side and rearview mirrors. For maneuvers such as merging or backing up, drivers should check their blind spots by turning their heads and glancing behind their shoulders. The larger the vehicle, the larger the blind spots. Therefore, if drivers are behind a large truck, they should increase their following distance to remain visible.
