Blind spots.... the new automotive trend.....
It depends on the camera implementation. The rear monitor on my wife's 2023 QX60 offers significant coverage of the rear. You basically have no gaps between side mirrors and that rear monitor if you have your side mirrors positioned correctly.Blind spots are only there if people actually turn their heads.
Nowadays, they're glued to the display with the backup camera.
They worship that camera and are oblivious to what's at their sides anyway.
We have a very diverse fleet of vehicles.It depends on the camera implementation. The rear monitor on my wife's 2023 QX60 offers significant coverage of the rear. You basically have no gaps between side mirrors and that rear monitor if you have your side mirrors positioned correctly.
Many people make their own "blind spots" worse by having half their side mirrors reflecting the side profile of the car.

Older cars are great in that aspect. No tech makes the driver drive.We also have an old Acura, none of that crap. Just excellent sight lines. It's the easiest car to place when driving or parking, so refreshing, old school Honda design was the best. Big windows, low dash, low beltline and tidy dimensions....
With the Z, are the BSM lights inside the car?Older cars are great in that aspect. No tech makes the driver drive.
Don't get me wrong, New tech is great but it shouldn't be relied on.
I like the blind spot indicators on the mirrors especially with tinted windows. It's a great aid because you still have to look over at the mirrors.
Backup cameras should only show the bumper and 5 feet of ground so that it cannot be relied on to drive.
The Z has it on the inside, next to the mirrors. As long as auto makers don't put the warning on the infotainment screen.With the Z, are the BSM lights inside the car?
I like when the BSM lights are on the inside, our Toyota has them in the mirrors, and they can get washed-out by glare.
