If you're quite fast and missed the car in your blindspot, the panic stations beeping would be very helpful don't you think? I think it's helped me to be a safer driver... haha... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not those panic panic beeping type which can cause more panic to drivers on the road. When a drive becomes panic, and over counter react, it can be even more disastrous then hitting the car at its blind spot. I dont think it will help me become a safer driver, but maybe train me to become a lazy driver. Next time you might even forget how to check for blind spot/assume that there isnt any car at your blind spot when you are driving an older car without such features.

OFF! Some youtube reviewers also said the system is downright dangerous! Edited August 20, 2021 by hansmith Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see it differently... if I take out without checking, it beeps and I know I forgot to check... so it helps build a good habit... at the start when I got the car, I got many beeps and I realise I forgot to check... now I will consciously check... the beeping is just a reminder now... or for when it rains like crazy like these few days...

Actually worth it... with current promotion. If 2nd hand car dealer can offer him a good price, i.e. Trade in price higher than overall depreciation. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, consider turning off blind spot monitoring..... i cannot emphasise it enough. But, again, this is just my opinion and preference for how i drive. Others in the forum feel differently while other people agree with me. So, find your preference.
