Mirroless actros be afraid
Picked up latest truckstop news and they have reviewd it.
There were taken on a test drive with a Merc driver.
He said the mirrorcam screens. We’re built in the door pillars at times the Merc driver was looking more at the dash than the road. Always having to swipe the touch screen using the displays while driving.
At times he felt the Merc driver wasn’t in complete control of the veichel.
He also said I have reservations if the system is 100%safe.
And he ended saying if you was to use an I pad while driving. Which is basically what it Is
Your be stopped and fined for breaking the law.
But apparently because it’s a built in screen it is totally safe and legal to use while driving.
So should we be afraid and waiting for accidents to happen.? .and what if the system freezes up or stops . You have no good old mirrors for back up
On the plus side apparently having no wing mirrors can lower fuel consumption by 3%
