And I do a head check anyway whenever changing lanes.
Besides, convex side mirrors can distort the image making the cars appear to be further away than they really are. You cannot rely on outside mirrors. You must do head check as well whenever changing lanes. And be mindful of motorcyclists as well.
Note: My post refers to cars only, with rearward vision.

Yes mate, I always check out my surroundings, it's safer that way (just like this dog).
