    The blindspot absolutely exists with mirrors. It’s just bigger or smaller depending on vehicle size.

      I don’t know what to tell you. In my car I can see a motorcycle that approaches and passes from the rear view, then the rear and side mirrors, then the side mirror, then the side mirror and out my window, then out my window as they pass. I literally never lose them for a moment between these 3 visibility areas.

      I drive a pretty sensible car, so I can imagine this is more of an issue with large trucks, but I simply do not have an area that I am completely blind to.

        Iy tends to be more of an issue with some modern muscle cars, and cars which have larger back seats like your modern SUVs or crossovers, because the space between the visibility of the mirror and the visibility of your side window is much larger, and tends to be more exaggerated on the right hand side of the car, if you’re LHD. You know, as compared to a hatchback.
