Why can't I see the lower edge of the mirror properly in Subject 2?

Subject 2 mirror lower edge visibility issue is caused by adjustable rearview mirrors. Solutions for Subject 2 mirror lower edge visibility problems are as follows: Identify specific observation positions: When entering from the left side, maintain a 30cm distance between the window edge and the left lane boundary, keeping the vehicle body as parallel as possible to the lane edge. Stop after pressing the right control line. Turn on the right signal and gradually steer. When the control line reaches the rearview mirror section, quickly turn the steering wheel right. When the control line reaches "estimated center of rearview mirror" (position indicated by red diagonal line), the precise distance between vehicle front and control line should be 0.8m.
I can totally relate to this issue. When I first started learning to drive, I also struggled with judging the distance from the lower edge of the mirrors. There are mainly three problems: First, the seat isn't adjusted high enough, making it hard to see the complete outline of the mirror's lower edge. I usually recommend raising the seat until there's a fist's distance between your head and the car roof, then fine-tune the backrest so your wrists can rest on the top of the steering wheel. Second, the mirror angle is too tilted—push the adjustment knob all the way up to see more of the ground in the mirror. Third, the reference points are wrong. For example, when reversing into a parking spot, you should focus on the position relationship between the door handle and the corner of the spot, not just stare at the mirror's edge. If all else fails, place a cone next to the car and practice repeatedly to build muscle memory.
