Well fred if you have a lot of money the waite is over, I just read (or heard on radio not sure which) that Mersadies now has a red light at bottom of the outside mirrors that lights up if there is something beside you, even if you cant see it in the mirror IE the blind spot.

Fred,

I think the article is correct, except for BMW and Mercedes drivers. So many of them are so self-centerered; and I see them look in their mirrors but still pull out in front of me. And it's not just when I'm on my bike but when I'm caging too. I guess they are just Richards.
