I would think that a "blind spot", from a big truck driver with a bit of experience, would be something that you can't see in your mirrors. With modern trucks that is directly behind the trailer. Nothing more.

In a car....it's mostly limited by the attention of the driver. Nothing more.

I didn't ride with a mirror until I tried one. Now, I ride with two.

Use a mirror. Don't use a mirror. Wear a helmet, don't wear a helmet. Wear a jacket when temps dip into the 20's, or don't.

No matter to me.

Your ass.

Your decision.
A bike is not a big truck with a big ass trailer...you may or may not be aware of this.
