I'm on the road for up to twelve hours a day, and constantly see 5 ton box trucks with mirrors looking at their box. In many cases over half of the flat mirror, and half of the convex is looking at their truck. And then I see scratches and dents up and down the side of the truck. No surprise. These guys are poorly paid, and I guess get very little (or none!) training on how to eliminate blind spots. But it is not rocket science. Obviously if half of your mirror is looking at your truck, you just cheated yourself out of half of your field of view! Why would a person do that to themselves? It has always been a mystery to me. Very strange.
If you have a motor home there is never any reason to cut off a little car. Blind spots happen when people don't know how to correctly adjust their mirrors.
Apparently I am doing it correctly.
