  Properly positioned mirrors don’t have blind spots.

    And yet pretty much every car has a blind spot detector of some sort. Pretty weird for something that’s never needed.

      People don’t set up their mirrors properly. If you’re turning your head to make a turn, you’re doing it wrong. Also, the visibility in a Tesla is much, much better than it is in most cars. Not having an engine in the front of the car allows for more angle in the pillars that would normally cause blind spots.
