problem #1

Mar 282018

Leaf

  • 4,000 miles
When turning left the visibility is very poor for a 5' 1" driver. The double "a" pillar and large side view mirror block the driver's visibility and caused an accident. Several other people also complained about the visibility almost causing accidents on a Leaf blog website. The accident happened when turning left at a busy intersection and an old lady fell because the Leaf driver did not see the pedestrian soon enough due to poor visibility on a clear day around noon. The Leaf had stopped waiting for 3 vehicles to pass before making the left turn at a slow speed but the large double "a" pillar and large side mirror blocked the driver's view.
