Public service: How to properly adjust your car mirrors…


One thing that surprises me when I drive other people’s cars is how their side mirrors are set.  1/2 of the side view mirrors show the car you’re driving.  I never understood why, I suppose folks have seen shows where kids were hanging off a parcel truck, and they want to be sure it doesn’t happen to them.  I have to admit, when I adjust my mirrors, I turn them out until my own car has just disappeared from the view; which isn’t quite what this website suggests.  In any case, check it out and comment what you think about it.  I’d like to hear!
