I've absolutely had FSDS do that to me, it signals and starts to move at the same time, but the side view popup shows the car its about to hit and the window is red.Yeah - I don’t know because I didn’t try to merge!
Sorry - that’s the best I could do while driving and not being dangerous!
I have my driver’s side wing mirror set to cover the blind spot so all I need to do is turn my head sightly. I can then see the blind spot in the mirror. As the car leaves the area covered by the mirror it enters my peripheral vision. With the mirrors adjusted like this I can easily cover my blind spot without taking my eyes off the road. This also lets me check the next lane over if I’m on a 3 lane road.
