What should you know about using the rear-view mirror?

You answered correctly. The rear-view mirror allows you to see traffic behind you, but it does not cover vehicles or pedestrians that are in the blind spot—areas that cannot be seen through the mirrors. That’s why you must also do a shoulder check before changing lanes or merging. Additionally, mirrors should always be adjusted individually for each driver to ensure optimal visibility. The interior mirror, while useful, cannot eliminate all blind spots, and it does not have a blind spot on the right side because it mostly covers the rear view directly. Always combine mirror checks with a direct look to the side for safe driving.
