Why haven’t car manufacturers tried to fix the driving-into-the-blinding-sun visibility issue yet?

1.56K views

Sunglasses, the built-in visors, and the blue-green colored glass at the top of the windshield don’t cut it when the sun is rising/setting and in the middle of your line of sight. Why haven’t manufacturers tried to solve this safety issue with a wider-reaching solution yet? Or if they have, why weren’t the proposed solutions successful?

I’m not sure you realize just how bright the sun is and what it takes to block it out. Have you ever worn eclipse glasses? They have special lenses that darken the sun enough that you can safely look directly at it. But you literally can’t see anything else. If you made a windshield out of that, you wouldn’t be able to see out of it.
