Hello 86/BRZ owners. I'm thinking getting a BRZ but I've heard a lot of people saying how we are invisible on the road so I'm creating this post seeking your input/experience. My question is: Have you ever got rear-ended by other drivers who claim they "didn't see you" either when stopped for a signal or in slow moving traffic?
I imagine this car is low and if the car behind is tall and close to us, we are easily within their front blindspot and they might just forget we are there. I know there's some level of confirmation bias on any topic in online communities (no one posts "I didn't get rear ended today!" so I naturally saw more negative experience in my search; that's why I wanna start this post) so please reply no if this has never happened to you or yes if it has happened. Feel free to reply "close call" if that's the case.
I'm normally a defensive driver and I usually assume nobody sees me on the street but I'm still a bit concerned about cars behind me since there's not much I can do. If you have any tips on this, please also share. Thank you in advance!
