Explanation
When driving, it is important to be aware of the surrounding traffic to avoid accidents. Turning your head and looking before changing lanes is a good driving habit because it allows you to see any vehicles or obstacles that may be in your blind spot and prevent a collision. Using your mirrors alone is not enough as they do not always give you a complete view of your surroundings. It is also important to use turn signals to let other drivers know your intentions and to give them time to react accordingly.
