ICYMI | Research using new IIHS method finds that newer vehicle designs block drivers’ vision. Read more: https://go.iihs.org/news-blind-zones In the past, researchers who wanted to compare the blind zones of different models needed to acquire engineering drawings or position each vehicle in an open area specially marked with grid lines or traffic cones. Because these methods were so cumbersome, no large-scale comparisons were attempted. The new IIHS method relies on computational software and a
