Blind spot or Blindspot may refer to:
The blind spot monitor is a vehicle-based sensor device that detects other vehicles located to the driver’s side and rear. Warnings can be visual, audible, vibrating or tactile.
However, blind spot monitors are an option that may include more than monitoring the sides of the vehicle. It can include "Cross Traffic Alert," "which alerts drivers backing out of a parking space when traffic is approaching from the sides."
If side view mirrors are properly adjusted in a car, there is no blind spot on the sides. This method was first revealed by George Platzer in a 1995 paper presented to the Society of Automotive Engineers. The method is frequently overlooked in Driver's education classes, and takes some getting used to. Calculated elimination of blind spots by trained drivers is cheap, and obviates the need for expensive technological solutions to that problem, provided drivers take the time to set up and use their mirrors properly.
George Platzer received a patent for the blind spot monitor, and it has been incorporated into various products associated with Ford Motor Company. The blind zone mirror has been touted as "an elegant and relatively inexpensive solution" to this recognized problem.

Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Drive Next - the assistance systems by Mercedes-Benz: Active Lane Keeping Assist helps to prevent unintended lane departure. Once the camera detects that road markings are being crossed unintentionally, warning messages are given to the driver. In the first ex stage, when crossing solid road markings, there is an additional one-sided braking intervention. Blind Spot Assist warns visually and acoustically against side collisions with other vehicles in or about to enter the blind spot. Active Blind Spot Assist goes another step further and activates the belt tensioners in the interior to protect the occupants if the driver begins to change lanes despite the warnings. At the same time there is a one-sided braking intervention. Find more information on innovation topi...

You're so clever, you're so wise
Smart pretender in disguise
Living under the spell of blue glass eyes
Freedom is your only thrill
But there is no form to fill
You think you've won when Peter Pan is killed
Just read between the lines
'Till there's nothing more to find
Being afraid has made you blind
Dive through the circle
it's spinning too slow
Just gather your strength
and fall into unknown
Don't search for a way back
Drifting is the only way to grow
There's no proof for this physical distance
It's just a blind spot creating interference
You've gotta let go
Losing is the only way to keep
All your life you're just spinning
this curtain in front of you
'till you finally crush
I can see you, all your keys
But you just feel a little breeze
Play with me or I could make you freeze
Mariner of your nightmare
Is actually the one who cares
Follow him, don't let him see you're scared
Floating bubble on your door
holds you still just like before
You think you've found the truth but the only freedom
you really see is your own prison
Forget about all the myths and dare to believe in
yourself,
to believe in what you feel
Let go and the waiting will be through
Don't be afraid I'll be next to you
You can find the world beyond your dreams
If you're free
