1 Answers
Use the following methods to judge the distance of the vehicle behind in the left lane through the rearview mirror: 1. If the body of the rear vehicle has entered the danger zone to the left of the dotted line in the rearview mirror, it indicates that the distance from the rear vehicle is very close, and turning at this time is not allowed. 2. If the left side of the rear vehicle's body is close to the boundary between the safety zone and the danger zone, you should be vigilant, but it is still safe to signal and turn at this time. 3. If the rear vehicle is in the safety zone, located in the center of the rearview mirror, it indicates that the distance from the rear vehicle is 15-20 meters, and you can proceed with the turning operation normally. 4. If the rear vehicle is in the safety zone, located to the right of the center of the rearview mirror, it indicates that the distance from the rear vehicle is relatively large, and you can proceed with the turning operation normally. Here’s how to judge the distance with the right rearview mirror: 1. If the rear vehicle occupies half of the rearview mirror area, and only half of its body is visible, the distance from the rear vehicle is very close. Your vehicle should maintain the current lane and not turn. 2. If the rear vehicle occupies half of the outer rearview mirror area, and the entire vehicle is visible, the distance from the rear vehicle is about 10 meters. You can signal and turn when the speed is slow. 3. If the rear vehicle occupies 1/3 of the outer rearview mirror area, and the entire vehicle is visible, the distance from the rear vehicle is about 15 meters, and you can proceed with the turning operation. 4. If the rear vehicle occupies 1/4 of the outer rearview mirror area, and the entire vehicle is visible, the distance from the rear vehicle is about 24 meters, and you can proceed with the turning operation.
