Worth saying most of the vans I drove had cameras. They even when working for the logbook they weren't always 100% on the road.
I guess part of my point was that van drivers are (or should have been) made aware of their blind spots and know that they need to move about and change position to cover them. You see them do this on the road.
In the modern SUVS I've been in the seats are like my hatchback - angled back cupping you, etc. People sit stationery moving their head, and probably aren't aware of the extent of their blind spots.
