This is what I can see without taking my eyes off the road
This is looking over to the right side
This is what I see to the left while watching road
This is looking over to the left
Basically..... while driving, if I see anything in my inside mirrors I'm not clear to move to the side...... But if nothing is showing, I can look in my outside mirrors to choose when to move over. It's a lot simpler while doing it. Also works real well for on ramp merging.
I come from a history of driving semi's , so having nothing but mirrors to rely on is normal to me.
That's great! All cars have their blind spots, and some way more than others.
Those little mirrors are a great way to keep from making a tragic mistake. I know I've had some really close calls from not seeing somebody who was just sitting in my blind spot.
