I turn my head to check the blind spot. It's a natural survival reflex that I do in the car as well.
Regarding a GPS, I have one in the car when I need to get to a very specific address that I am not familiar with. Would never want one on the bike though as I find them incredibly distracting. If I am touring, I keep a map on my tank, and usually write down some key names that I need to remember, a bit like a simplified road-book. I will look at my map and memorize the area I am heading to, and then occasionally stop to check where I am at.
No, this helmet is really not for me. Besides, just one more electronic gadget that will malfunction and will require endless hardware updates etc.
