before changing lanes.
Changing lanes without taking into
account the actual distance of a vehicle
in the convex mirror is dangerous. You

you see in the convex mirror is closer
than it appears.
Always return the outside mirrors to
the driving position before you start
driving.
Driving with the outside mirrors folded
in is dangerous. Your rear view will be
restricted, which could lead to an
unexpected accident.

folding in or out is dangerous. Your
hands could get caught which could

Adjusting the outside mirrors while
driving the vehicle is dangerous as
doing so could distract your attention
from the road ahead and lead to an
