Explanation
Motorcycles are smaller than cars, making them more difficult to see, and they can easily fit into a driver's blind spot. It's important to always make a visual check for motorcyclists by checking mirrors and blind spots before entering or leaving a lane of traffic or at intersections. This helps drivers to be aware of the presence of motorcycles and avoid potential accidents.
