Driving Strategies - 3 Steps To Eliminate Blind Spots
For many cars and trucks, you can eliminate all blind spots by strategically angling your mirrors. Most people set their side-mirrors so that they can see the side of their own car and well behind the vehicle.
This poses a number of problems and creates redundancy. First off, your rearview mirror is for seeing behind your vehicle. Your side-views should be set to see the side of your vehicle.
Here's how you do it:
1. Sit in your seat comfortably and adjust your seat to suit your normal driving style.
2. Adjust your side-view mirrors WIDE- just wide enough so that if you lean your head almost to the glass of your drivers side window, you can barely see the side of your car. Same for the passenger side if you lean toward the middle, you should barely see the side of your car in the left portion of the mirror. This will make your field-of-view much wider so that in normal seated position, you can see much more near the rear-sides of your vehicle than ever before.
3. Practice 'tracking' vehicles on the highway so that they never leave your field of view. Do this by letting vehicles on either side of yours pass you, you can see them coming up in your rear view mirror, pass into your side-view and before they leave your side view mirror, you can see them clearly out your front passenger windows.
