[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1583103, member: 14668"] Impossible to say for certain without knowing the exact details. Our driver very well could have done everything correctly. He could have cleared the area and backed first, but in the split-second that his eyes moved from one mirror to the monitor to the other mirror, the kid on the bike could have come in from the side he wasn't looking at. Walk-arounds are a good idea but they aren't 100% fool proof. At some point you still have to enter the package car, and when you do someone or something can approach the car on your blind side. I am not going to second-guess the driver's actions from 1000 miles away when I don't have all the information. [/QUOTE]
