I'm not sure what you mean. I don't use voyager, and find it to be off putting that voyager would share a link in such a way that is essentially an ad for itself.

I shared the direct link for the rest of us 🙂 it doesn't seem that ! is needed anymore.

Thanks! I didn't realize we could change that.

I'll agree that its a good component to have. I couldn't say about driving instructors, for me that was about 25 years ago when I was driving a car from the early 90s that had the thinner pillars. I keep my head on a swivel while driving, but just as easily I've had a car or pedestrian pop up that I don't see right off the bat in that blind spot, especially turning at an intersection.

Surely driving instructors teach students that it is a blindspot of a sort and that you should keep it in mind, no?

Drivers Ed is a month for a teenager or a handful of lessons...

The only thing I remember from drivers Ed was when another student was told to turn right up ahead, replied "yep" and then just didn't do it.

When the instructed asked why not, the kid accelerated and said he didn't want to turn.

Scary as fuck. But everything else I was told decades ago I can't remember.

And that's not even getting into how much vehicles have changed in the last couple decades. Especially when the topic involves the continued increase in size in trucks...

You think a boomer remembers what they were told in the 1980s during drivers Ed and will be able to extrapolate the changes to modern vehicles on their own?

Quick edit:

Besides all that, you're putting a distracted drivers "safety" after hitting a pedestrian in a giant truck over them being able to not hit a pedestrian.

You know what's safer for a driver? An Abrams tank.

Your line of logic is literally why trucks keep getting bigger and why were in this fucking mess
