>blind spot monitor This probably the best piece of modern safety tech available and I can't understand why it isn't standard on every car. Honda had it for a little while and then dropped it. What were they thinking?
>>28791211I have those bullshits in my M5 Competition; they're completely uselessYou shouldn't even have blind spots if you know how to adjust your godsdamn side mirrorsStupid fuckin ricelet probably thinks that's too HARDCORE of a MODIFICATION i bet
>>28791211I thought they were neat. I'm not quite sure what's the best implementation of them but I wouldn't mind having them on my car
Is that a safety feature?Fucking sissy.
>>28791211> techAnon, normal fags don't look at all now.Those blind spot lights are useless.Makes people pay even less attention.
>>28791211I thought this would be a great feature in my Carnival, but the most comfortable seating position puts the steering wheel right in the middle of the dash. So I can't actually see these camera displays, making them completely useless.But the mirrors are so good, that I don't really feel like I need the cameras anyway.
>>28791444It's not that tech made people forget how to, it's that they stopped caring. Their tiktok, uppers, or ego is more important.
>>28791211These are at best 95% effective.
You don't need this bullshit if you align your mirrors correctly.
>>28791504But I need to see the sides of my car to know it's still there
>>28791215>M5Oh nice!What year?
my old honda had this. you turn on the right blinker and your center console goes from whatever it was showing to showing what the camera sees on your rightside mirror. was neat. you could also press a button on one of the stalks to show it on the fly. yes yes if you have your mirrors adjusted correctly this is minimized but it's not perfect.
>>28791211Ok but we need to get rid of any shit that automatically stops the car. I've had emergency braking activate due to cars in different lanes stopping, or on one occasion a car that was coming towards me in an opposing traffic lane that wasn't divided. I wasn't even close to any of them and yet my brakes lock up fully and cause the car to fishtail. It's fucking terrifying to drive now.>>28791562Seeing a small sliver of the side of your car is correct and helps when backing up to know your dimensions and where your wheels are.
>>28791710LCI F10
>>28791211Consider this less complex option.
>>28791718I was always told that the edge of your car should be just out of view in your normal position, but visible if you shift left or right, for the respective mirror
>>28791738I cant stand cars that dont have this. every car I've bought that doesnt have this i buy the stick on ones immediately
>>28791718>Seeing a small sliver of the side of your car is correctIt's objectively worse.>and helps when backing up to know your dimensions and where your wheels are.Just move your head to one side or the other, and you can see the side of your car in your mirror again.

>>28791723That looks so boring and ugly lmao
>>28791738I don't like the ones that go on your main mirror.Two sets of mirrors is the superior option
Another safety feature, another feature ignored.People don't even care anymore. I see people texting for minutes at a time on the highway, people doing 20 under, texting, people not even bothering to look when indicating after changing lanes, people whose mirrors aren't even adjusted properly. I can sit behind someone and see their steering wheel in the rear view it's so bad. People who don't even turn on their lights at night, people who don't even know how controlled intersections work. It's just so fucked. Stop making cars to solve dumbasses, start making driving tests harder for fucks sakes aarrrrGGGHHHHH!!!
>>28791804>Giant blind zone>Move head forwards/backwards>No more blind zoneStupid fucking image.
>>28791504You would need to buy extra concave mirrors, and maybe a bigger mirror.I also don't like driving cars where you have the option of spotting a failed merge/overtake in a roundabout, or you set them so you can actually see the lane markers and curb. >>28791738>>28793340Based
>>28793457very much this. all these "safety features" are making the average driver so much worse.
>>28791211Why does this exist? Your side mirrors are supposed to be pointed at your blind spots?Don't tell me op...Your side mirrors point at your car huh? You are the problem
>>28791211>Cars have gotten so handheld and dumbed down that we now have manufacturers putting in blind spot camerasDo people not just turn their neck when crossing lanes or pulling into a divider now?Who am I kidding, of course the average modern driver would need something like this because they're all too retarded to do that nowadays
>>28793575this "headcheck"-thing looks dangerous. luckily there is a safety feature that slows the car down automatically when something pops up in front while I'm headchecking.
>>28791211if you have a modicum of intelligence just adjust your side views in such a way that your blind spots basically dont exist. you dont need to see your rear doors in your sideview, you really dont.
>drive modern zogmobile>just a chill drive>AAAAAHHHH SLOW DOWN>AAAAAHHH THERES LINES ON THE ROAD>AAAAAHHHHH THE GUY IN FRONT IS BRAKING>AAAAAHHH THERES CARS IN THE NEXT LANEthis shit must be a nightmare for learners
>>28791738>>28791211Consider turning your fucking head. It's not that hard
>>28794257Why have mirrors at all then? Convex mirrors let you see behind and around the car and make parking dramatically easier, all for the cost of about $5 each with no electronics that can break. It's shocking they aren't standard except on very large vehicles. I borrowed a full size Ford Transit from a friend and expected it to be extremely difficult to maneuver, but it turns out even reversing into tight spots is a breeze due to the convex mirrors. It's a scam to sell you thousands in sensors and drive up everyone's insurance now that every fender bender costs 10K in electronic repairs.
>>28791824Faster, more luxurious, and better looking than your grandma's faggy monster truck lolbmaooo0o0o0o
>Look into mirror and see a lit icon>Look into mirror and see a carI wonder which one prevents accidents better...
>>28793575Because the secpnd I headcheck is the second I get cut off by some sheboon
>>28794630Skill issue
>>28791804how is creating 4 blind spots instead of 2 "enhanced"? you want your mirrors to cover the area you can't just turn your head to see
>>28791211That's a $300 solution to a $0.30 problem
>>28793575But they told me to keep my eyes on the road so that means I literally have to lock my eyes on the 10 feet of road directly in front of me at all times and never look anywhere else.
Just buy wide angle mirrors or turn your head
This is only a problem with modern cars and their fat ass pillars
>>28793575I put on my turn signal, check the mirrors, the blind spot mirrors, then head check, then check the mirrors and blind spot mirrors again, then change lanes. It's about a 7 second lane change process but it hasn't failed me yet.
>>28791718you can know where your wheels are by having basic spatial reasoning ability, retarded boomer.
>>28791211Remember. Blind spot monitors is to tell you a car is there, not to tell you a car isn't there.
>>28791450lol fat manlet
>>28794636He won't respond hes too busying trying to figure out why people are asking him if he would have been yesterday hungry if he didn't eat breakfast yesterday.
>>28793457>>28793520what your asking for is banning women from driving, its gonna be a hard battle but as with voting its something we've got to do.
>>28795599The top of your steering wheel blocking your dash display is a tall person problem, retard. Just think about how the angles work.
>>28791211>t. burger too fat to turn his head all the way
I get more mileage out of ACCI can engage ACC which will brake for me if a faggot in front of decide to suddenly stop and then I'm free to seek out a gap on the side that I want to get to
>>28794636The front blind spots are basically too small for a car to fit into and angled so you can see what's in them by shifting your eyes, not even your head. The rear blind spots are either too narrow to fit a car into or so far behind the driving vehicle that anything in them couldn't colide with it.
