I think the article is saying that there is more to it than that. What I understand their point to be is that there is a human characteristic that is at work in many “I didn’t see him” accidents. I don’t know if it is true or not but I do not discount it, nor do I think it cannot be overcome with training and commitment. I am pessimistic about the prospects of our society ever having the training and commitment needed to create drivers who can overcome the natural tendency to look but not observe.

The SMIDSY maneuver as I approach any intersection, cut out or left turn lane (when vehicles are preparing to turn) to me is the antidote to making sure I am seen. Chris
