Is Skipping the Shoulder Check Really Safe? My Experience Riding Shotgun

My boyfriend and I are both new drivers, and honestly, riding with him sometimes makes me nervous. He never checks over his shoulder when changing lanes—just relies on his mirrors and blind spot sensors. I was always taught to physically look, just in case. After talking to him, he explained he turns his head but doesn’t do a full shoulder check. I get technology helps, but I still feel safer double-checking. Anyone else deal with this? Do you trust the sensors or always look? Let’s talk safe habits! #DrivingSafety #NewDrivers #BlindSpot #Cars
