This video may feel like an exaggeration, and it is, but honestly, who hasn’t been passed by a speeding motor vehicle? Even if it doesn’t take place quite like this, you can see what the 2023 Kia Carnival MPV blind-spot monitor looks like and does. As you’ll see, it can show you visually what’s in your blind spot.  


How does the 2023 Kia Carnival MPV blind-spot monitor work? 

A blind-spot monitor uses cameras or sensors to know when an object is in your vehicle’s blind spot, which is the space to the side and rear of your vehicle in which objects are hard to see. The blind-spot monitor in the 2023 Kia Carnival MPV, as shown in the video above, goes above and beyond the usual blind-spot monitor by giving you a visual as well. The visual may help you figure out what’s in your blind spot, as some things will be harder to see than others, such as bikers.  

What are the benefits of driving a car with a blind-spot monitor? 

The benefit of driving a vehicle with a blind-spot monitor is that it is generally safer to have technology looking out for you, as long as you still treat driving as an important activity that requires your full attention. Blind-spot monitors are not an excuse to change lanes without checking your mirrors. Instead, you should use them as a supplemental resource, and in that way, they add another layer of safety.
