.... motorcycle safety?

Seems like you really need to look twice for a possible motorcycle coming your way when going from side road to main road. Seems like the support columns in your car between the windshield and the side doors have become a lot wider with the addition of the side column air bags, and your line of sight has a larger blind spot than in older cars without side column air bags.

Just say'n ..... had a close call about a week ago....and it got me thinking how I never even saw the motorcycle.....but fortunately....he saw me and nothing happened..... but it was a close call.
