Blind spot becomes ANGLE OF DEATH !

I’ve just ordered a dozen off Amazon for £15

Showing the blind spots. Similar to DVS stickers

Yep, we are selling them. Any vehicle from Jan 1st over 3.5t has to display them to the rear and sides, French are fining for vehicles without. Includes campers and motorhomes also.

Thank you for the info appreciated

It’s a small sign doubt anyone’s really gona see it. They’d be better off putting in as theory question for car drivers

We need huge stickers like those in cigarette packs.
Mangled cyclist with body parts strewn across the road.
That should make them think harder before breaking the laws of physics

one more thing for you!
