Six new driver tips you won’t pick up in driving schoolEven seasoned drivers occasionally miss certain nuances or details that can simplify driving.

1. Verify that all of your mirrors are correctly adjusted.

A blind area arises if your mirrors aren’t adequately set. You can miss a car moving through an adjacent traffic lane if you have a blind spot, which is a portion of the road you can’t see. Adjust your side-view mirrors so that you can’t see your car in them to get rid of blind spots. Drive past another parked car in reverse and glance in your side-view mirror to see whether there is a blind spot.
