The question was indeed about how assistance systems, in particular blind spot cameras, can enhance safety. That was the entire premise of what I said, and was what I was discussing until you shifted the goalposts while dismissing those sources as irrelevant. Hence the sealion bit - it may well be you failed to communicate here, but you're doing a poor job of making that clear if so.

That is part of the problem that I described, pedestrian safety being an afterthought in the US, not just in a regulatory way, also as far as research is concerned, especially in regards to driver safety.

Ah! Could you then perhaps show me the EU research on this topic? I utterly forgot that continent existed when looking up sources on this. Sarcasm aside, it's maddening that both the recent UN and EU guidelines laying out that vehicles add blind spot cameras/monitoring systems fail to cite any studies as their rationale for the changes.
