Blind Spot Myth - part 2
We often read the blind spots cause crashes, I find that hard to accept. It is similar to saying that obscured corners or hump back bridges cause crashes.
We could do a simple experiment.
While driving or riding down the road pull a paper bag over your head.
Keep going.
If you have a crash consider the possible causes. Is it the cause the paper bag? Is it the cause restricted vision? Or is the cause your decision to keep going when you couldn't see the road ahead?
