1 Answers
The mirror inside a car is called the interior rearview mirror. The function of the interior rearview mirror is to reflect the conditions behind, beside, and below the car, thereby expanding the driver's field of vision. The key points for adjusting the interior rearview mirror are: place the distant horizon horizontally at the midline of the mirror, then adjust left and right until the image of your right ear just appears at the left edge of the mirror. Methods for judging the distance to the following vehicle using the interior rearview mirror are: 1. When the interior rearview mirror shows the hood of the following vehicle but not its grille, the distance is approximately 3 meters; 2. When the interior rearview mirror shows the grille of the following vehicle, the distance is approximately 8 meters; 3. When the interior rearview mirror fully shows the wheels of the following vehicle, the distance is more than 20 meters.
