I'm with V. If you don't turn your head to check your blind spot you're asking for trouble. The number of times it's saved me from sideswiping someone is amazing. I do a lot of highway driving, hence the need to check the blindspot and all my mirrors constantly. And by constantly, I mean I do a mirror check about every 5 to 10 seconds and never change lanes without turning to double check there's no one there, or not someone moving over from the further lane into the spot I'm going to take etc.
