Question: To check your blind spot you should:
Answer options:
- Use mirrors only ✅ Turn your head and glance over your shoulder
- Brake first
- Use the rear-view
Correct answer: Turn your head and glance over your shoulder
Explanation: To safely check a blind spot, you must turn your head and glance over your shoulder in the direction you plan to move. Mirrors, including the rear-view, have inherent physical limitations and cannot show vehicles or road users traveling directly beside your vehicle. Braking first is unnecessary and increases the risk of a rear-end collision if done before assessing traffic. The official ICBC rule dictates that a proper shoulder check is the only reliable way to clear these hidden areas. On the Class 7 road test, examiners strictly monitor your shoulder checks; omitting them during turns or lane changes will result in immediate point deductions.
