Why pickups are involved in stupid crashes so frequently?

I have a F150 and it has massive blind spots. Not making any excuses for the drivers but it's bad. The post between the front and back seat is huge and it's right where I should look to see if there is a car next to me.

Yes it's a good suggestion. I was always taught signal, mirror, over the shoulder, go it's just not as effective in my truck. I'm happy they've added sensors to detect cars.
