  2. Only through the windshield.
  3. Only in the mirror in the middle of the windshield.
  4. Over your right shoulder, with frequent glances to the front.
Show answer

Correct answer: Over your right shoulder, with frequent glances to the front.

You look in the direction of the movement. Glances to the front show you whether the front of the vehicle is safe.
