In his situation, yes. he can clearly see from his seat everything on his drivers side with that hood mirror. It looks nasty but I'd drive it. Like I said, i didn't notice it initially. All a person would have to do is give a longer than normal spacing from your POV be to switch lanes than normal to be safe. People in cars don't use their mirrors like truckers, truckers don't shoulder check, there's nothing in the line of sight if they do that. Most trucks don't have hood mirrors like that, usually the wide angle convex is mounted on the door, not the hood. Honestly, he probably was heading for a shop, article is very light on details
