Outside Convex Mirror
Your passenger’s outside rearview mirror is convex.
A convex mirror’s surface is curved so you can see more
from the driver’s seat.
{CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder
before changing lanes.
