well well well looks like you're back
for some more driving lessons from me
your favorite robot friend ace today
we're gonna talk about something very
important but often unseen blind spots
what our blind spots you ask well that's
a great question
blind spots are areas around your car
that you cannot see through any of your
mirrors that means you'll have to
physically look over your shoulder to
see what kind of crazy stuff is going on
there allow me to demonstrate take a
look in your mirrors
did you see anything on the road near
your car take another look by glancing
over your left shoulder hold your wheel
study to avoid accidentally veering out
of your lane see that that is an example
of someone hovering in your blind spot
which can be very dangerous this is why
you should always check your blind spot
before changing lanes or making a turn
it may sound complicated but all it
takes is a shoulder check and mirror
check to make sure you're safe to move
every vehicle on the road has blind
spots so not only should you be aware of
yours you should also be aware of the
blind spots of other vehicles let's take
a look at how to avoid other vehicles
blind spots the location of others blind
spots will depend on how they have their
mirrors adjusted but generally you can
expect the blind spots to be here
it's okay to pass through these spots
but try not to linger hanging out in
these spots is asking for trouble use
your signal to alert other drivers of
your intention to switch lanes check
your blind spot and merge into the left
lane approach carefully to make sure
they are not moving into your lane now
speed up just a bit to get out of the
blind spot and pass them and there you
have it that wasn't so hard was it blind
spots can be tricky but if you stay
alert and aware you can do your part to
keep everyone on the road nice and safe
after all good defensive drivers prevent
accidents before they happen
