Description of the problem | On more than one occasion i have had issues with pedestrians being in my blind spot while driving. Today (7/26/13), i nearly hit a woman in a parking lot who was perfectly positioned in the same blind spot. The blind spot is the support beam the is located between the drivers window and the front windshield. I am extremely concerned that i may one day end up hitting and injuring someone as a nearly did today. The rear or the car also has a terrible blind spot as the car is raised in the rear making it hard to see anyone walking behind the car. Please do something to correct this before people get hurt. |
