They take this urgent issue so seriously that they will ban… new cars being made with this feature… by 2027! Great, after all only… peoples safety is in question!
Its a step into the right direction, but are we really in a world where we are to celebrate common sense decisions?
The whole truck bed and the height of the vehicle would obstruct basically a tons of stuff, making it a massive blindspot. Lots of accident/collision happened because driver reversed into someone/something.
This sort of door handle, while it’s unsafe in certain condition, is lower in priority than those that would cause harm to someone other than the driver. Eliminating blind spot should be in the top priority of automobile maker.

2027 is only 1 model year away (2026 cars are already being sold). It took fucking forever for rear cameras to be mandated in the USA by comparison
I don’t get how that is comparably significant… Are the rear views of pickup trucks that obstructed?

Mandated rear view cameras came from recommendations from a series of particularly tragic coroner’s inquests.
