    If they do have a camera, that camera works only under 10-15mph, above that it’s disabled.

          Sure, but is it a major issue? When the vehicles are going quickly there’s less of a chance of something sneaking up in front of them. The big danger is when they’re going slowly so something could come from the side and get in front of them with the driver unable to see it.

            The major issue is that they have such a big blind spot and can’t see what is right in front of them, fast moving or no.

            Things aren’t sneaking up on them, they’re running over shit they can’t see.

              The big issue is when they’re moving slowly and things can move from the side (where they’re not seen) into the blind spot. When they’re moving forwards at a reasonable speed, the only way to get into the blind spot is from the front, where they’re very likely to be seen.
