Angle the side mirrors correctly, it helps a lot and most people do it wrong. If you can see the side of your car in your side mirrors they are angled to far in. They should actually be angled out wider, into your ''blind spot'' as the EPA recommends. You will then be able to follow a car from your rear view mirror, into your side mirrors and then into your sight (with a slight head turn). If you still have a blind spot get a wide-angle clip on for the rear view mirror and small adhesive convex mirrors for the side mirrors. You will not have a blind spot after all this.
