Convex Mirrors
{WARNING
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 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.
Manual Mirrors
Vehicles with manual mirrors can be
adjusted by moving the mirror up
and down or left to right to see a

vehicle.
Using hood-mounted air deflectors
and add-on convex mirror
attachments could decrease mirror
performance.

they can be adjusted for a clearer
view of the objects behind you.
