Which mirrors and how often should someone check their mirrors while driving in a straight line?
Ideally, you should know what is going on behind and beside you, at all times
If you get passed and that's the first time you've seen that vehicle, or it surprises you, you're checking your mirrors far too little.
Ideally, you will know beforehand when a vehicle will be about to pass you
While I think the attention should be on the front
That's where your attention should be focused mostly, but not exclusively
, but it seems it is required to check mirrors constantly,
especially while driving on the highway.
Exaggerate a bit on the exam, and show you're looking in the mirrors
Do we need to only check the back mirror?
No
Use them all
Though the internal and left mirrors will be most useful
If there is no lane to my right it does not make sense to check the right mirror.
Emergency vehicles or road pirates might approach on the shoulder
