I watched them one day and it seems that the kids are being
taught to turn right by simply sticking their right arm out
and without looking, swerve into the centre of the road. Awful.

I still do 'lifesavers' when driving. ;-)

As do I, especially joining roads from slip roads - mirrors have large
blind spots.

You cannot even be sure that you can see everything ahead of you.
Modern vehicles hide a lot of road space behind their A pillar. If
there could be any doubt about something hiding behind it, I lean well
forward to look around it.
