Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Briefly turn your head to look through the side windows.
Even with your mirrors properly adjusted, there is an area on each side of the car that you can't see in them. That's the blind spot. To check whether anyone is there, briefly turn your head and look through the window on that side. In the image, the gray passenger car is alongside and does not appear in the side mirror.
