When changing lanes, the correct sequence is:

A.Move first, then signal
B.Signal, check mirrors, check your blind spot over your shoulder, then move when clear
C.Check only the rearview mirror
D.Honk and move immediately

Correct answer

B. Signal, check mirrors, check your blind spot over your shoulder, then move when clear

Why

Mirrors leave a blind spot that only a shoulder check covers. Signal first so others can anticipate you, and move only into a verified gap.
