to be fair, as drivers, professional drivers too, they more than likely check all their mirrors out of habit and necessity. they shouldn't have to contend with people riding on the inside really. i don't see what the problem is with a polite notice.
it's not really absolving them of anything, if there's a collision its going to be grief for both sides in many ways.

They shouldn't have to content with peds running around, drivers cutting them off, dealing with tube strike, etc. but they do.

Yeah I saw those, a very polite way of saying that the drivers are not held responsible for not checking before pulling in.
