Why is backing toward your blind side, the side you cannot see well from the driver's seat, considered especially risky?

Pick an answer

1. It is actually no different from backing toward the driver's side in terms of visibility
2. You have to rely entirely on mirrors and a helper instead of a direct view out the side window
3. Blind-side backing is illegal in every state, so the question does not apply to real driving
4. It only matters for very long trailers, not standard combination vehicles
