I agree with this statement 100% and is one of the reasons I suggested a
removable sticker. Since I have side curtains, the windshield is the
only place I could possibly put a sticker and even that space is very
limited. I would only want it there for special occasions, the rest of
the time I would prefer a clean windshield. Cars have enough blind spots
without adding yet another. I nearly ran down a moped once because the
small profile of the bike and rider happen to just fit behind the
vertical post between the windshield and side window of my car. The
moped was going at just the right speed to stay hidden from view while I
was making a left turn. This scared the hell out of me when I
discovered what had happen. I can only imagine how the guy on the moped
felt.
