I don't know if you have noticed the text on the figure, one of the important reasons why it is easy to have accidents when turning is the existence of the blind spot of the A-pillar of the car.

What is the "A-column blind spot"?

The car body generally has three columns on each side, of which the columns on both sides of the front windshield are called A-pillars. When the car is turning, the driver's line of sight will be blocked by the A-pillar, forming a blind spot in the field of vision, that is, the A-pillar blind spot.

How big is the range of the A-column blind zone?

There is no fixed value for the size of the range of the A-pillar blind zone, which varies depending on the model design. Because the driver's seat of the domestic vehicle is on the left side, the blind area of the A-pillar on the left side is larger than the one on the right side when we drive.

When the vehicle is turning, the A-pillar is very likely to block pedestrians or even vehicles on the left.

How to avoid accidents caused by the blind spot of the A-column?

When driving a vehicle, you must observe the road situation in front of you before turning left, and observe the area obscured by the A-pillar by moving your body forward and backward to confirm safety before you can pass.

2. When turning right, observe the road conditions on the right

The blind area of the A-pillar on the right, although small, also requires drivers to be vigilant. When turning right, you can't just look at the right rearview mirror, but be sure to observe the dynamics of vehicles and pedestrians in front of you in advance to avoid danger.
