Correct answer
Turn your head briefly to look through the side windows.
Take a brief side glance, turning your head when safe, without losing control or diverting attention from traffic ahead for too long. Adjust the mirrors properly before driving, but adjustment does not guarantee that every blind spot disappears. The direct check looks for a road user outside the mirrors’ view; it does not establish that the blind spot itself does not exist. Do not move sideways if a vehicle is there or you cannot establish that the manoeuvre is safe.
