So I found a company name in the article and did a little digging.

In a large cab there is a lot of room for the screen, especially on the passenger side. But it has to be creating a pretty big blind spot on the driver's side in particular. It's like a 6-inch wide A pillar. An interesting idea with a challenging dilemma methinks. |
single large screen design duh.. this solves the issue
the turn signal would also turn the screen on when the signal is enabled (prevents driver from being distracted)
