Why YSK: The side mirrors on a car are not for looking directly back behind the car. They should be angled out a little from the car to check your blindspots.

    It kinda baffles me that people would set their mirrors where >10% is their own car. What do they think the point of their mirrors is?

    Good post! It may seem obvious to some but sometimes bad habits get handed down especially from parents/borrowing cars.

      Got to admit, I had the sidemirrors closer in to the car before seeing a video like this.

      It made such a difference and also made driving less stressful, because I could now see the blindspot better.
