Anyone else get blinded by the rear door handle LEDs when looking over your shoulder at night?

[Chris Haraway]

I don't know if this explains it or not but I know what works for me. I'm a very cautious driver.

I'm also an Engineer type and I do a lot if stuff you never see anyone else do. I don't think I've ever seen anyone else use the method I described. I swear it works great. I'm 63 years old and never had any issues changing lanes. Cargo van example. I've never driven a truck but it would be the same right?

Here’s the article I’ve shared previously on positioning your mirrors to avoid blind spots and the need for a rearward head check.

Yep, this is what I saw when I first got Bigfoot. Very helpful. So thanks!

Is that the rare and stinky corn-eyed brown trout?

Bingo, the artist took some liberties with colors and patterns (artistic liberty)

Better corn eyed than corn holed

On topic I put electrical tape over the light. These 4th gen expeditions are a big step backwards in ergonomics.
