side of your vehicle can just be
seen and your blind spot
mirror has an unobstructed view.

you could hit a vehicle on the
right. Check the inside mirror or
glance over your shoulder before
changing lanes.The passenger side mirror is convex
shaped. A convex mirror’s surface
is curved so more can be seen from
the driver seat.
