A Lexington company is helping to eliminate truck driver blind spots and improve safety on roadways.
RichlandSource.com reports, Stoneridge for the last 7 years has been replacing mirrors with a system of cameras and monitors.
The mirror eye system uses 5 mirrors, two on the drivers’ side and 3 on the passenger side, which eliminates a blind spot the length of a car. The system, by removing the mirrors, also saves in fuel economy by 2 – 3%.
