We hear so much about how manufacturers thoroughly test the vehicles they sell, but yet there's always room for improvement. Manufacturers, for those of you that make trucks, you have GOT to do something about the rear glass! Are you saying that in all your testing, you've never had anyone drive behind your truck in the morning or evening during rush hour traffic when the angle of the sun is just right enough to create vision issues? I guess not. Thorough testing indeed.

Surely there's something that could be done to diffuse the light reflection from that rear glass. The driver of the truck doesn't know that they could be blinding the person behind them. Even for the people that tint the glass, the reflection can still be an issue.

Lol. I hear y'all. I would say that even with shades, which I do wear, doesn't always help in this specific situation. Since many drivers won't use any of the solutions presented here, it's still an issue. Maybe something's in the works..
