How to Correctly Adjust Your Mirrors

Blind Spots: How to Adjust Your Convex Mirrors for Maximum Visibility

The blind spot is the leading cause of collisions when changing lanes. If you rely only on your peripheral vision, you're leaving your safety to chance. A mirror glass with a convex surface widens your field of view, but correct adjustment is the key to eliminating hidden vehicles.

The 3 Checkpoints

• Interior Mirror: Sit in the driving position. Adjust it to frame the entire rear windshield. You shouldn't need to move your head — just your eyes.
• Minimal Bodywork: Adjust your side mirrors outward until you can barely see your own car. Every inch of your own paintwork taking up space in the mirror glass is a hidden vehicle in the next lane.
• The Handoff of Reflections: A vehicle overtaking you should appear in your side mirror at the exact moment it starts to "leave" your central interior mirror. There shouldn't be a one-second gap.
