Yes, they do. The blind spots are not as large as those for cars and trucks but they definitely do exist. It is difficult to keep track of a person following directly behind you on another bike even with your mirrors adjusted.

What are the blind spots that cant be seen without glancing over your shoulder?

Blind spots are areas that cannot be seen in the side and rearview mirrors of a vehicle. They are typically located slightly behind and to the side of the driver and can only be seen by physically turning your head to check over your shoulder. It's important to check these blind spots before changing lanes or making a turn to ensure there are no vehicles present.


What parts of the eye are involved with the inability to see. this is dealing with Blind spots?

The parts that are involved are the retina, brain cells called neurons, photo receptors, the optic nerves, and the iris. They function like a camera. How? Well the optic nerve head, neurons collected together passing as a whole through our photo receptors and it forms our optic nerve; they work as messengers to our brain. Once our eye sees light, the neurons transfers it to our brain as a picture. So when our blind spots kick in that means that there are no neurons passing to our photo receptors in that area, as in nothings being transmitted to our brain so there's no picture. Um... i hoped i was a good help to you XD


Do trucks have a larger blind spot easy to stop in case of emergency or do they see your car easier?

Trucks have larger blind spots compared to cars, especially on the sides and rear. It's important to give them plenty of space and avoid lingering in these areas. In case of an emergency, trucks have longer stopping distances due to their size and weight, so it's safer to avoid sudden stops in front of them.


Does your blind spot increase when backing up?

Yes, your blind spot can increase when backing up because your rearward visibility is limited. It's important to use your mirrors and check over your shoulder to ensure there are no obstacles in your path. Additionally, some vehicles are equipped with sensors or cameras to help reduce blind spots while backing up.

This is due to the smaller size and narrower profile of motorcycles compared to larger vehicles, making them easily obscured from view. It is crucial for drivers to check their blind spots carefully and use their mirrors effectively to ensure they are aware of any nearby motorcycles.
