This is just about the stupidest thing I've ever heard. |
If you set your mirrors correctly there's no blind spot. Most set their mirrors incorrectly where they can see their own car rather than others cars. |
There is not such thing as "no blind spot" in a moving vehicle, as the Blind Spot/Field of View is constantly changing, when a vehicle is in motion, encountering various obstacles, at different angles.
Depending on the size and make up of a vehicle, one car's blind spot might be more severe than another but it's naive to assume they don't exist or a properly adjusted mirror would completely eliminate it and that's the kind of overconfidence that can lead to accidents.
