The blind spot is the point is a person or animals vision which they cannot see without turning their heads. For predators the blind spot is behind them, but they have excellent front vision. For prey eyes tend to be on the side of the face rather than at the front in the center, this gives prey a much wider area of vision, but makes focusing on objects directly in front of them or behind them more difficult, these are the preys blind spots.

In a car, the blind spot is the area you cannot see by using any of your mirrors, it can be seen by turning and looking over your shoulder and is the area between your immediate left and right upto about 5 metres back.
