Merc with no mirrors

Mercedes trucks would have been better off investing time and money into development of a better gear box. Scania and Volvo 2 pedal autos are so much smoother, more responsive at very slow manoeuvring speeds, and quicker to respond and put it in the correct gear if your coming to a roundabout for example and see you gap and go. In the actros I’ve had it take a good 5 seconds to decide on the right gear to pull away.

I actually don’t see see any advantage in this mirror less system. Can anyone enlighten me?

Seems like just an expensive thing to potentially go wrong and if it does go wrong that’s you parked up.
