How should the inside mirror be adjusted?

The inside mirror should be adjusted to frame the rear window, allowing the driver to have the best possible view of what is directly behind the vehicle. By positioning the mirror in this way, a driver can effectively monitor traffic coming from the rear and anticipate any potential hazards, which is crucial for safe driving. This adjustment ensures that a driver can see as much of the rear window as possible, encompassing both vehicles and pedestrians that may be behind.

Other adjustment options, such as viewing the road ahead or the sides of the car, can limit the driver's ability to gauge what is happening behind them and create blind spots. Minimizing blind spots typically involves adjusting side mirrors rather than the inside mirror. While the correct adjustment maximizes safety, it’s essential to regularly check all mirrors while driving to maintain awareness of the vehicle's surroundings.
