Can you show us a link where there's such thing as 2 shoulder checks and demerit points? First time I heard it and my driving instructor didn't mention anything about that rule.

question, why are we instructed to look at the center rear mirror before chaning lanes. I dont really get it, since we're not so focused on our backs but our sides.

Mirror signal shoulder check and check again

I always just count to 5 to make sure there’s enough time? Looking back and forth the whole time using all mirrors and looking back and forth before I change lanes…. I drive like a grandma 😣

My dad gets mad when i did two shoulder checks🙂

It is fine. Dad can stay mad. You’re being safe and cautious.

Do you also have to shoulder check twice when you're merging or changing lanes in the freeway?

Absolutely, it is even more critical because you do not want to merge with a car near to your side.

@Aldrich is correct my friend. Always look twice before proceeding. As I like to say: NOT shoulder checking is to driving what NOT checking to see if a weapon is loaded is to gun safety. All the best, Cheers Rick

You could be right or dead right

Signal, mirror check, shoulder check, then shoulder check again and go if clear to do so?

How about signal mirror shoulder?

Applicable only in usa as the lanes are too wide and side mirrors dont cover it all. If u do shoulder check in Europe in a moving car, not only is it dangerous, but it's a bit of an overkill.

That is simply false. And because there are even more vulnerable road users, it’s even more important. Cheers Rick

@smartdrivetest thanks Rick. this is why in Europe we put the indicator (turn signal) on and only starting Lane change after good couple of seconds, checking side mirror several times to determine if the car/bike on the other lane will hold back to accommodate us, or will it over take us.

Wish 🤞 people would follow your guidelines

Where? Only one over shoulder check required typically.

What if you miss something the first time. You always want a backup my friend. It's like carpentry - measure twice, cut once. Except in driving the consequences are more dire. Drop us a note if we can help further. Cheers Rick

lol he literally shows a bad light change immediately... you don't ever tailgate.

Or learn to use your mirrors?
