OC:

1. Look before a lane change. Just…turn your head and look. It’s not hard.
2. Not all cars have great rear visibility. I drive sports cars whose center rear view mirrors have poor visibility. Just look.
3. A lot of cars have blind spot monitors that buzz or beep when you try to merge into a car next to you.
4. Scratching and bumping cars in parking lots is a big deal even if it’s not fatal.
5. Just look, man. Look out the windows.

I lived with this arrangement for one day and immediately reverted to the traditional views, because of how incredibly dangerous it made street driving. It also made it very difficult to reverse because you can’t see the area around your rear wheels.
