feature, the controls are
located on the driver’s side
of the vehicle next to the

Outside Convex Mirror
{CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other

If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder
before changing lanes.
The passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror’s surface is curved so more can be seen from the
driver’s seat. It also makes things appear farther
away than they really are.
