While driving, by only moving the eyeballs without turning the body, a person's field of vision can cover approximately 200°. Adding a small round mirror can help reduce blind spots. 2. Car rearview mirrors need to be replaced regularly, and choosing compatible rearview mirrors can greatly improve driving safety.
When I first learned to drive, I always struggled with adjusting the rearview mirrors and had to repeatedly try on the roadside before getting it right. The adjustment method for the Volkswagen Lavida is quite simple, mostly relying on electric controls. After getting into the car, first sit in the driver's seat and adjust your seating position for an accurate view. Then, locate the small panel with icons on the driver's side door, usually featuring L and R buttons for the left and right mirrors. Press L to select the left mirror, then gently move it using the central circular joystick until you can see a bit of the door handle in the mirror and ensure the angle covers vehicles behind without significant blind spots. Next, switch to the R button for the right mirror and follow the same steps. After adjustment, check for symmetry—ensure the mirrors are positioned just high enough to show the curb and not too far outward. In rainy or nighttime conditions, mirror clarity is crucial; I recommend wiping the surface with a towel before readjusting. After setting, take a short drive to test if the view is comfortable, avoiding excessive head-turning to check blind spots. Overall, the Lavida's design is user-friendly, taking less than five minutes to adjust, and beginners can master it with a bit of practice.
