Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: The areas around a vehicle in which its driver cannot notice other road users – neither by looking nor by glancing at the mirrors.
Blind spots are all the areas around a vehicle, on every side, where the driver cannot see other road users, either by looking directly or in the mirrors. They are not limited to the rear or the front, and on large vehicles they are especially wide. So before turning, changing lanes or reversing, turn your head and check these areas.
