How to Correctly Position Your Side Mirrors
Here’s something we were all taught in driver’s ed but completely forgot. The correct way to position your car’s side mirrors is to leave as little of the car’s flank visible as possible. That way, you’ll have a greater viewing angle and will be able to spot other motorists.
This will also keep you from accidentally bumping into objects when backing up. The greater your viewing angle, the less risk there is of accidental collision. However, if you have the money to spend, you might want to consider getting a rearview camera for your car. They are absolutely worth the cost.
