There's still a sizeable blindspot in most vehicles with the mirrors adjusted right

Hand in your license, anon.

I don't drive "most vehicles". I drive my car.

There's always a blindspot period.
Big vehicles get it the worst because they can't turn their head.

I'm in agreement with OP to an extant. Turning your head is unnecessary outside of reverse, to a point of being dangerous in some situations.

IT'S 2027 FOR GOD SUCKS WHY IS SWITCHING LANES STILL A LEADING CAUSE OF CAR ACCIDENTS

There is still a blind spot. I have my mirrors properly adjusted, but I shoulder check nearly every time anyway. Maybe 1/250 times, there is a car that fit so nicely and magically to my side that they couldn't be seen in my mirrors.

With mirrors properly adjusted that car has to be nearly side by side with you, behind only a little bit. You can easily see that in your periphery with a slight tilt of the head, your eyes don't have to be taken off the road.

This is different from the kind of shoulder checking most people do

>get wink mirror
>can't use the provided mounting hardware without making new holes
Ayy
Gotta get around making a custom mounting bracket to reuse the sun visor.

>that blue part
You would only see half of each blue part

Having to readjust my mirrors when backing up each time is too much work.

Stop trying to act cool, OP. I drive a work truck with an assortment of convex mirrors to see every angle behind me, but even my mirror set up doesn't see the motorbike that snuck up beside me. Want to know how most side swipes happen? Idiots like you.

i usually dont look more than once if i know for a fact there is no one. for example, look back to move, a car or two come up in the lane with absolutely no cars behind them for a good half a mile or more, let them pass then shift over without looking
