Steps to Take Before Changing Lanes
A highnumber of crashes occur when vehicles
change lanes. This is because drivers changing lanes are often unaware
that another vehicles is already in the lane into which they want to
move.
There are 3 steps you should make before changing to a different lane:
1- Check your internal and external mirrors and glance over your shoulders to cover the blind spots
2- Signal to the direction you want to take
3- Steer to the direction you want to take AFTER making sure the road is clear
The higher your speed is, the greater the indicator/signaling distance you must give.
P.S.: NEVER change lanes/overtake another car around intersections and turns.
