When coming up behind a trailer I often ease out to the left until I can sight along the edge of the trailer to see if I can see the TV mirrors. A lot of times I can not and more times than not it is a massive fifth wheel. I don't understand the thought process here. How do you merge onto a freeway in heavy traffic or simply change lanes?

I feel very uncomfortable if I can't see what's happening beside or behind me. I tow with the CIPA brand McKesh style mirrors with convex stick-ons. I can see all around me.
