Eliminating The Blind Spot In Motorhomes

If you own a motorhome or even if you tow a trailer or camper then you know how difficult it can sometimes be to know what is traveling at the rear and side of your vehicle. There are some products on the market that have attempted to eliminate this concern and have had some very limited success. Other products have actually caused more collisions as they require much more from the driver than is practical when driving and in particularly towing.

Certainly many motorhomes are very extensive with some high tech gadgetry and innovative storage and space solutions for the traveler. However, while the interior and exterior of the motorhome is a great luxury to have, it is all fairly obsolete if the safety of driving it around is not there.

When it comes to something as simple as a lane change, the fanciest bathroom and bedroom suites inside the motorhome play little part in getting the driver and the vehicle across the lane safely. MaxiView blind spot mirrors have developed an innovative and very successful blind spot mirror that will attach to any vehicles existing side mirrors.

Using a special adhesive that has been enjoyed up until now by surgeons in complicated surgery, the MaxiView blind spot mirror will attach securely and can withstand the harshest of climatic conditions. With a unique 360 degree ball and socket swivel design they can offer clear and unobstructed view to the driver regardless of their seating position and height.
Unlike other inferior mirrors on the market that reduce the size of the reflected image, MaxiView blind spot mirrors increase the image that is reflected by up to 3 times its actual size. This gives the driver of the motorhome ample time to adjust their driving accordingly and get to their destination safely.

Being a Safer Motorcyclist on the Road

It is surprising to know that motorcyclists on our roads are generally very experienced and are well informed as to what the rules and regulations are when travelling on the road. Motorcycles, however, are more likely to be involved in a collision than a vehicle. So, what is at fault here? Could it be the vehicle in the majority of instances are at fault or is it the motorcyclist?
It is probably easier to answer by thinking about the way that motorcycles behave on the road. Many of them are prone to high acceleration and can weave in and out of traffic with far greater ease than passenger vehicles. These are fast and streamlined machines that can get the motorcyclist where they need to be in far less time than if they were in a vehicle.

The problem is that motorcycles can be difficult for drivers to see as they can accelerate seemingly from nowhere and overtake the vehicle. This can be a problem for both the driver and the rider as they have to determine what the other will do in this situation.

Cars that have MaxiView blind spot mirrors attached to their existing side mirrors are more able to see objects and vehicles such as motorcycles looming in their blind spot. MaxiView is the world’s most adjustable stick on mirror and enlarges objects that are reflected by up to 3 times their actual size. Motorcycles can alos have MaxiView blind spot mirrors attached to their side mirrors as well to enhance their vision when on the road. It is not always the motorcycle that is driving erratically; it can also be drivers of vehicles do not check their mirrors to see the motorcyclist in the lane next to them.

Blind Spot Mirrors Expose the Dangers on Our Roads

Safe driving entails one understanding the circumstances of the road you are traveling on and the knowledge of the location of other drivers. As you drive your car you might assume that your focus should only be at the front, or what you can see through the aid of the side mirrors. This though, neglects a very important area referred to as the blind spot.

This area known as the blind spot is the one that is impossible to see with the aid of the rear and the side mirrors. This therefore makes this area an extremely dangerous one to all the drivers. Every driver then should be aware of the blind spot so as to avoid accidents.

The blind spot is usually at the rear right and left sides of the vehicle not exposed by the side mirrors. The major blind spot is above the right shoulder of the driver, sandwiched between the perimeter of where the marginal visualization ends and the region up to the rear of the vehicle which isn’t observable by the use of side mirrors.

The blind spots will be varied in size depending on the vehicles height and size. This nightmare however can be done away with by fitting your vehicle with MaxiView blind spot mirrors which offer the ideal solution because the image they reflect is magnified as opposed to other blind spot mirrors on the market. This means that dangers on the roads can be significantly reduced when you install and use these innovative mirrors.

When you have MaxiView mirrors affixed to your side mirrors, you will not need to look over your shoulder to change lanes, meaning that you can focus on the road ahead and keep center of attention on what is going on to the sides.

Change Lanes with Confidence and Added Safety when Towing

Do you have the requirement to tow a boat, trailer or other object on our roads? If so, then you would know how difficult it can be sometimes to have to negotiate your way through traffic and especially on the motorways. Many times it can be difficult to see other vehicles behind you let alone try and determine if you have another vehicle in your blind spot.

Until now the solution to checking your blind spot has been limited to say the least. The choices were for the driver to check rear mirror, then side mirrors and then physically look over their shoulder at the area behind them while traveling at speed and in this instance while towing. Understandably this is a dangerous yet well used method of checking the blind spot.

The other option is to have a blind spot mirror attached similar to the bubble or fish eye ones that have been around for some time. These reduce the size of the object reflected and come with warnings that objects may be closer than they appear.

When you are towing the last thing you need to do is hope that your estimation of the vehicle in your blind spot is accurate when trying to change lanes. MaxiView saw the ridiculousness of these products and decided to come up with a logical and smart product that would enable drivers to have ample time to make a lane change decision.

As the world’s most adjustable stick on mirror the MaxiView blind spot mirror will enlarge the reflected object up to 3 times its actual size. Able to be adjusted to suit any driver, regardless of their height or seating position, the MaxiView blind spot mirror has a unique swivel lens that sticks in the upper right corner of the vehicles existing side mirrors.

The Most Dangerous Move To Make On Our Nation’s Highways

We are all most likely familiar with the vast number of highways and roads all over our country. It is little wonder that many of us are seen on these motorways and highways daily and that it is the most common method of getting to and from anywhere. When we consider the population and the number of vehicles that are on the roads it is no surprise to learn that we are more likely to injure ourselves or indeed die in a road collision than in any other mode of transport. When we break down the most common causes of road collisions one result keeps cropping up; lane changes are the most dangerous move a motorist can make on our highways. Why would this be the case?

When it comes to changing lanes we can all recall what our driving instructor told us to do when we are attempting to pull out into another lane. Check your rear view mirror, your side mirrors and then turn in your seat and check over your shoulder to ensure there is no one in your blind spot. Here is the danger. Shifting your position in your seat to physically check over your shoulder while traveling at speeds of up to 60 miles an hour is ludicrous!

Blind spot mirrors were manufactured to combat the problem but missed the mark when it came to effectiveness. These mirrors reduced the size of the image that was being reflected and so the driver then had to accurately estimate the distance the object was from them. Needless to say that many drivers’ estimation skills are not accurate as these blind spot mirrors have been responsible for causing more collisions than the absence of blind spot mirrors.

MaxiView blind spot mirrors change that by enlarging the reflected object in the mirror by up to three times its actual size. This allows the motorist ample time to make lane changing decisions and increases their vision of any objects in their blind spot.
