    They should have a mandate to reduce blind spots as much as possible. Design of the vehicle be damned

      Vehicles used to have way fewer blind spots before like 2005-ish

      Nah, I’m sure it’ll be sorted by class of vehicle and will therefore just push trucks to be bigger to count as a larger class of vehicle.

    I miss the designs from the 50s and 80s that would slice a pedestrian off at the knees. But no, they had to mandate front impact protection for pedestrians and now we have flat faced cars everywhere.
