Should the Rearview Mirror Show the Tires?
1 Answers
The rearview mirror does not need to show the tires. It is recommended to adjust the right rearview mirror slightly outward to ensure visibility of the car body while also capturing more of the space to the right rear. Many vehicles have a blind spot about 1 meter outside the right rear door. Installing a blue-tinted mirror can help expand the field of vision. Below is relevant information: 1. Rearview mirrors are tools that allow drivers to directly obtain information about the rear, sides, and lower parts of the vehicle while seated in the driver's seat. For the convenience of the driver and to prevent traffic accidents and ensure personal safety, all countries mandate the installation of rearview mirrors in vehicles, and all rearview mirrors must be adjustable. 2. Rearview mirrors involve the concept of a field of view, which refers to the range that the mirror surface can reflect. The industry mentions three key elements of the field of view: the distance between the driver's eyes and the rearview mirror, the size of the rearview mirror, and the radius of curvature of the mirror. These three elements are interrelated. When the distance and size of the rearview mirror are the same, a smaller radius of curvature of the mirror surface results in a larger reflected field of view. Similarly, when the radius of curvature is the same, a larger mirror size provides a wider reflected field of view.
