3. I use convex stick-on mirrors to cover my blind spots. So far, so good.

And WHY, in this age of extreme technology, do autos have BLIND SPOTS?
That's inexcusable in my book.

I rode in an auto or two with some warning sensors, but I don't know if they cover blind spots.
Motion? Proximity? Blind Spot?
Anyone?

I briefly had a loaner Subaru with eyesight, but since I live in the foothills, with countless narrow winding 2-lane roads, it was a complete pain in the ass.

My two cents worth.
