Practice question
Why is it important to use both mirrors and a head-check (shoulder check) before changing lanes?

- Mirrors have blind spots, particularly to the rear quarter — a quick head-check verifies the lane is clear of other vehicles, especially other motorcyclists
- Head checks are illegal in South Carolina
- Mirrors are decorative only
Answer: B — Mirrors have blind spots, particularly to the rear quarter — a quick head-check verifies the lane is clear of other vehicles, especially other motorcyclists
