    Sure, you reinvented basic geometry.

    Not at all. However i was taught i needed to do real math with actual formulas requiring correct input data and not taught that drawing a line on an image would give an accurate result.

    Really? Well, then do the math with actual figures, and show the result here.

    You mean there can't be anything just in front of the hood?

    It's called situational awareness. Professional drivers know what is around them even in potential blind spots. How do you think these 85 year old drivers you read about with 6,000,000 accident free miles still driving their antique 1960's and 70's hoods ever made it? They didnt have their feet propped up on a windshield while driving for one thing.

    It's even worse, its his lack of knowledge of geometry that's getting him today. His lines start at the windshield instead of the drivers eyes.

    I hope i remember this tomorrow morning so i can snap pictures so the ####### can see how little it effects your vision to drop the seat to the floor.

    The real funny thing here is he is so focused on argueing a non existent issue that he is oblivious to the problem a deep drop visor actually has.

    You lack basic knowledge of geometry. You know what will happen when I start the lines from where the drivers head will be? It will get far worse for you.

    Perhaps you should all come over here, and learn where dead spots are with a truck. Over here trucking companies visit primary schools to teach children how to deal with trucks in traffic.
