Yes. I agree there are blind spots and all drivers should be aware of where these are. As a cylist I also know where those spots are and I stay out of them so the driver can see me. On the motorbike I do the same. I would also point out that some dont bother to look regardless and will never see me (or you) anyway. The proof of this is cars getting "hit" by trains. Trains are huge. They have bright lights at the front, they dont travel horrendusly fast and they are located on tracks. If car drivers cannot see a train coming, what chance to any of us have (Car drivers, motorcyclists, cyclists and pedestrians all included). If they dont look, they wont see.....
