Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“As a safety mgr for 23 years, & defensive driving instructor, I feel there is a serious problem with manufacturing trucks with shiny, non textured metal fenders, bumpers, or mud flaps. With most trucks sitting higher than the average car, these bumpers, fenders, and some mud flaps act like mirrors, reflecting headlights directly back into the eyes of following cars, usually at direct eye level. There is no safe distance to back away sufficiently to stop this blinding glare. …”
