On the road, every move a driver makes

or doesn't make

can significantly impact

everyone in the area.

A lane change or turn

might seem simple.

But when drivers aren't aware

of what's going on

all around their car,

the result can be catastrophic.

A the next corner, turn right.

Before turning, look twice

and make sure the way is clear.

Turn into the near lane,

being careful not to swing wide

as that can impact other drivers.

When safe to do so, move to the left lane.

When changing lanes,

it's extremely important

to check your mirrors

and look directly into your blind spots.

When safe to do so, move to the right lane.

You want to make distinct head checks,

not just casual glances.

This way, you know the path is clear

before you begin to change lanes.

After all, the last thing you want to do

is move into the path of an unexpected

car, van, bus

or semi.

Bottom line,

whether your turning, changing lanes

or starting or stopping your car

you need to be aware of everything

that's around you.

You might think of these areas

as zones.

The areas in front, behind and on

both sides of you.

Be aware of what's happening

in these zones at all times

and you'll be a better driver.
