Description of the problem | Several times i came too close to hitting a car on my right side that i could barely see because of the way the car is made. The back half of the car's roof is held up by two "posts" (i don't know their real name). These are wide enough that they block a lot of my vision when i am trying to decide if it is safe to change into the lane on my right. When this is combined with the right, rear headrest, it is very difficult to see a car if he is in that huge blindspot. This design is very dangerous. |
