When they back up, drivers should NOT:

Look directly through the rear window.
Be cautious.
Depend on rear-view or side mirrors to check behind their vehicle.
Back slowly.
Explanation

When backing up, drivers should never rely solely on their side and rear-view mirrors. Instead, they should turn their head to check all blind spots and look directly behind their shoulder through the rear-view window. If backing out of a busy area, drivers should also get out and check for any objects, animals, or small children behind their vehicle.
