What does the term 'blind spot' mean?
DVSA explanation
Modern vehicles provide the driver with a good view of both the road ahead and behind using well-positioned mirrors. However, the mirrors cannot see every angle of the scene behind and to the sides of the vehicle. It's essential that you know when and how to check the vehicle's blind spots, so that you're aware of any hidden hazards.
