How to Adjust Rearview Mirrors for Reverse Parking?
1 Answers
Reverse parking requires adjusting the right rearview mirror to see the right rear wheel as much as possible, while the left rearview mirror should show the farthest point possible while still maintaining visibility of the car body. Below are specific details about reverse parking: 1. Utilizing Rearview Mirrors: The driver's rearview mirror is a flat mirror, making it easier to judge the distance between the car body and rear obstacles and to determine if the car is parked "straight." 2. Function of Rearview Mirrors: The passenger-side rearview mirror is a convex mirror with slight curvature, primarily used during reverse parking to observe obstacles on the right side of the car. It can be slightly angled downward to better view the right-side road conditions. 3. Positioning Rearview Mirrors: Whether it's the left or right exterior rearview mirrors or the interior rearview mirror, they should be adjusted so that the horizon is at the midpoint vertically in the mirror when the driver is in a normal driving position. Additionally, the car body should occupy no more than one-fourth of the mirror's surface area in both exterior mirrors.
