Near misses and collisions have become a daily occurrence on highways and major freeways. In some cases such collisions result in heavy losses in lives and limbs. There are people who have become completely incapacitated by collisions along the freeways. One of the major causes of collisions is the inability to see other motorists while changing lanes along the highway. This is because most drivers rely on the old fashioned fish-eye and bubble side mirrors which are not only inaccurate in showing how far or how large the vehicle behind is but also unable to give a clear view of what is referred to as the blind spot.

The blind spot is the area on the road behind and adjacent to the car that is not visible to the driver through the side mirror. Any effort to reduce collisions on highways should be based on finding ways to reduce the blind spot because clear visibility is essential to safe driving. Fortunately the blind spot can be effectively reduced through the use of a blind spot mirror. This is a stick-on mirror that has successfully been tested on California freeways and the autobahns of Europe to prove its effectiveness in eliminating the blind spot while driving. It is shatterproof, fog resistant, and comes with unique night vision features to make it completely glare-proof. What makes the blind spot mirror more effective than the traditional fish-eye and bubble side mirrors is its focus capability derived from its 360 degrees adjustable ball swivel. It also provides a larger view than traditional side mirrors because its surface curvature is of the same size as that of a truck’s side mirror. With its super strong bonding strip installation it can fit a towing mirror, a motorcycle mirror, and even a motorhome mirror. Given all the above advantages, the blind spot mirror can effectively eliminate the blind spot menace and reduce collisions on our roads and freeways in the process.

Our national highways despite being of superior infrastructure are said to be among the busiest of roads in the world. This therefore means that each time a motorist is on the road he or she needs to be aware of the danger posed by irresponsible driving and lack of implementing safe driving measures. Most of the accidents are due to vehicle defects while others are a result of drivers’ neglect or ignorance. There are other causes of accidents that are due to lack of proper equipment to eliminate causes of accidents such as the blind spot. Blind spots are areas invisible to the driver through the side mirror and are some of the factors that contribute to poor decision making by many drivers on our national highways. One of the most common but dangerous moves made by most drivers is looking behind to check behind when changing lanes.

An effective way to combat this problem is through the use of blind spot mirrors. A blind spot mirror allows a driver to view the unseen areas. They make changing lanes much safer and easier. This is why a blind spot mirror is a must have for every motorist who values road safety. The other alternative would be to keep on turning your head backwards every time you need to check the blind spot. It is a stick on mirror that can be attached on a towing mirror, a motorcycle mirror as well as a motorhome mirror.

A blind spot mirror is easy to install because it is attached using a strong all weather bonding strip made with NASA technology. Visibility is a crucial factor while driving on our national highways and the most dangerous move a driver can make is drive without a blind spot mirror. Our national highways can be much safer if drivers became more responsible and adopted safety measures like installing a blind spot mirror.

You can never drive and feel safer on the road when you know that your visibility is hindered by blind spots on both sides of your vehicle. Proper and clear visibility on all sides of your car is a crucial requirement for safe driving. This is basically the reason why cars are equipped with side mirrors and rear view mirrors in the first place. Good visibility is just as important as driving with good brakes in your car. In fact it is more important than brakes because you would rely on seeing an obstacle or another vehicle first before you hit the break or swerve. It would therefore be accurate to point out that eliminating the blind spot from your vehicle should be the first step for safe driving.

The best way to eliminate the blind spot would be to install a blind spot mirror in your car. This will you make you feel safer on the road because you would be able to see all the other motorists around you. The blind spot mirror is a state-of-the-art stick on mirror that works much better than the conventional fish-eye and bubble types of side mirrors. It has the capacity to give clear, real life images. This is because the images in a blind spot side mirror are two and a half times larger than in the fish-eye and bubble side mirrors. While the fish eye side mirror can provide the driver with a limited view of the blind spot, it does not provide clear distortion-free images like the ones a blind spot mirror would give you.

The blind spot mirror is a perfect solution for safe hassle-free driving on our roads because of its high adjustability with 360 degrees ball swivel. It can be installed easily without the need for tools using its super strong all weather bonding strip. You can even attach the blind spot mirror on a towing mirror and a motorcycle mirror to feel and drive safer on the roads.

According to most American drivers, changing lanes is one of the most difficult maneuvers on roads and highways. It is one of the leading causes for accidents. Research and traffic reports show that close to 58% of highway collisions are mainly caused by driving factors such as lane changing while 40% of accidents are a combination of vehicle and roads and other factors. These statistics clearly indicate the need to address major causes for collisions especially when changing lanes.

In most cases, near miss and collisions on highways are due to blind spot problems among other issues related to traffic violations such as speeding and drunk driving. Statistics also state that blind spots are now a major concern for motorists as they require multiple calculations and keen observations to make accurate decisions. It is for this reason that blind spot mirrors are on the market specifically to reduce road carnage and eliminate road collisions when changing lanes. These uniquely designed blind spot mirror can be attached on any vehicle’s side mirror including every motorcycle mirror, towing mirror, as well as motorhome mirror. With a unique ball swivel, it can be adjusted according to the driver’s height and viewing position to provide accurate visibility. The optically engineered mirror has been tested on European autobahns and California’s freeways. It has the capacity to provide expanded distortion-free vision. It is also made of a strong all-weather bonding strip and can be installed without the need for tools. The blind spot mirror may seem like a small gadget but is an essential part in every vehicle. It is a necessary addition for all drivers who value both their safety and that of other motorists. The best way to avoid collisions when changing lanes is to ensure that you do not have a blind spot in your side mirror by investing in a blind spot mirror.
