sa saudi naman baliktad. when backing up/reverse di ka pwede lumingon sa likod, side mirror and rear view mirror lang. pag tumingin ka sa likod automatic bagsak ka na.

Honestly di ko practie to while changing lanes, I just make sure that I am way ahead of the overtaken vehicle before I re-enter the lane. On the assumption syempe na malayo pa yung kasalubong in the other lane.
So due diligence na lang po talaga with proper settings/angle ng mga mirrors natin plus signaling is very important.

Although I can park without glancing back, I am wondering what is their purpose with this guideline. What I mean is most of the time naman na paatras ka is mabagal ang speed mo dahil magpapark ka. For me better practice na tumalikod ka pero continuously check all your mirrors and even your hood kasi baka may tamaan kang hita lalu na kung matao yung lugar pagkabig mo. Slowly but surely ika nga.

Bros.,- sa DMV,- signal, glance and immediately change lane.. Hindi puwedeng more than 5 sec na naka-signal ka at libre e hindi ka mag lane change.... Bagsak kang bata ka...

Saudi,- mas bilib ako sa parallel parking... Full turn right-reverse then stop then full turn left-reverse-stop-align wheels with body - pasok sa assigned parking lane at nasa gitna ka pa... No more need to go forward and back to align your parking.... Ayos!!!

I do glance too, if you are on a 3 lane road, you are on lane 1 and moving to lane 2, hindi kita sa mirror kung meron sa lane 3 na a change lane din to lane 2. That's where the quick glance helps

Hindi ko rin gets yung driver na lumilingon sa likod with matching akbay sa passenger seat while backing / paatras na parking.

Side / rear view mirrors lang gamit ko.

Siyempre bro,- sanay na kasi tayo sa backing horn e....

Siyempre pagbalik ng naka-akbay na braso,- may kurot sa pisngi ng katabing pasahero,- at pagpalit ng kambyo from reverse to 1st gear,- may haplos sa braso, kamay at sa....

Sulit!

Sa driving school naman the instructor was insistent na dapat lingon-sa-likod-with-akbay-sa-passenger-seat pag nagrereverse. Pero hindi rin ako nasanay, usually one glance back lang just to make sure of the distance.

Pag lingon sa likod with akbay pa, tapos matagal, nagiging blind spot mo yung kaliwa ng sasakyan. Oo nga bago ka lumingon nakita mo naman clear yung kaliwa ng sasakyan. Pero ugali ng tao walang pake sa nagpapark na sasakyan. Didikit at didikit yan sa sasakyan mo, minsan makikipag patintero pa sa yo.
