Correctly adjusted rear-view mirrors are half the success on the road to safe driving.
In order to drive safely on the road and with pleasure to participate in traffic in the city and on the suburban roads, you may need a driving instructor, but many things in your car you will do yourself. One of such small, but madly important things - correctly exposed mirrors. Why? Because only thanks to these small glasses, we can make a correct picture of what is going on around us. Mirrors are the mirrors that help drivers to navigate correctly in their surroundings and to maneuver successfully.
When you just get your first driving lessons, you will use the services of a teacher to properly navigate the road, but be sure to install these reflectors as you like.
Left mirror
Note that it has a large part, about 60 percent of the space should be occupied by road and land, and only the remaining 40 sky and everything above the road, in which case you will better navigate in the flow of cars behind you. In addition, with the correct landing in the reflection should be visible both handles of the doors of your car. The handle of your driver's door should be visible in the lower right corner of the mirror. If this is the case, the mirror is ready to move.
Right mirror
Mirror from the side of the passenger seat set in a ratio of 70 to 30, where 70 land. This ratio will make maneuvering much easier when you decide to park. To make it easier to navigate through the mirror position, adjust it so that the front passenger door handle can be seen in the left corner. Now your side reflectors give you the most convenient view for parking and overtaking in any position.
By the way, when you have to park in a place that you think is too narrow and uncomfortable, just put the reflectors down a little bit, now you can watch your movement directly. So any parking will be much easier, and you'll be a better driver.
The easiest thing to do with a salon device. Sit down in the driver's seat and adjust the mirror so that it was visible all the rear window. Try not to decorate this mirror with anything, a loose toy can significantly reduce attention while driving.
How do you check that the mirrors are set up well?
There is no need for a driving instructor, although for the first few times it is he who can point to errors. Ask someone to bypass the car (let them keep the distance about two subways). Do you see a person in the side mirror, and as soon as he or she is so invisible, he or she can be seen in the saloon? The mirrors are set up correctly and you can go to the road.
And one more nuance: do not try to adjust the rear view devices "on the move", in this case you can get a different result than you expected. If you feel that you do not have enough visibility, just stop at the side of the road and adjust the mirror settings again.
