People, listen to this guy! Its not bad advice. This way you don't have a blind spot and can spot a car from the rear-view, then both in rear and side view, then both in side view and the side of your car. Having the mirrors adjusted too close like he mentioned is IMPROPER!
Helpful video. Thank you !
Thank you for this! The other people on here probably constantly have people in their "blind spots" and wonder why.
Yea but keep just a sliver of your car in the view, it really helps give spatial relation to the objects in the mirror.
understand and helpful
Good luck parallel parking
I've never not done this whenever I've rented a ZipCar. Thanks, Jeremy.
Correct. There is no need to have any of your doors visible when sitting in a normal position. When I'm sitting straight I can see about 1 1/2 ft away from the back of my car. That eliminates the Blind spots. If you want to see what's in that 1 1/2 then move your head.
Nine years ago. Look how many people copied his video. Go Jeremy! OG UA-camr in the house. Sorta!
This adjustment needs practice to put into use. Sit in your car on the side of the road and watch cars move through the mirrors as they pass you on your left, or right. This does work, but mostly for freeway driving, or two plus lane city driving. However, I still keep a sliver of the door handle in my view, and lean forward to look in the mirror int he blind spot, when I'm going to change lanes. This way, I can still use the side mirror for both side view, and rear view with the same look. oh, and you don't need to lean to adjust the mirror. Just start with the sliver of the door handle, and push it out a ways and you got it. For my job, I'm getting in to several vehicles a day, and I'm not going to adjust every dang one every time.
my instructor the exact same way on how to set up the side mirrors. How do you set up the rear view
I tried this but there's an additional test you left out. To answer this we need to understand what a blind spot it.
A blind spot EXISTS if a car behind you leaves your center mirror, disappears, and then reappears in a side mirror. The only way you know you fixed it is if JUST as that the car behind you momentarily exists in both mirrors. Otherwise? Blind spot.
When I used this informative video and followed it to the letter, for some reason my left mirror still had a blind spot. I showed a touch more of the door and GONE.
i think one third of the side mirror should cover our car vision.
Bro how i get the mirror to move
I disagree, being able to see the side of the car is much better for special awareness.
After two million miles in a large car I will agree with this is a good starting point for sure, but what I see on the road more is people not turing there heads and looking also before just blink and jump into the next lane, thinks for the tip
People could be stuck in the mud, and think they know how to adjust the mirrors, but if you are not following this advice, you are wrong. But hey, to each his own.
Lol do they even teach this in driving school cause I don't recall learning this. I figured it out on my own
It honestly worries me how willingly people give up looking over their shoulders by doing this. To me the side mirrors are about seeing behind you out of reach of where your rear mirror or yours eyes could see. I don't use my side mirrors to check if there is a car next to me but instead if it's coming from the side and just behind me so I'm not cutting someone off. Instead, checking over the shoulder is about seeing down the side of my car.
exactly. I think this is such a terrible take
Looking over your shoulder is for amatuers. Plus it's dangerous.
@@kings17court Do you have any data to actually back that statement up other than personal feelings? There's a reason every driver handbook you can find probably recommends head/shoulder checks...
@@Tapport No, no data or statistics, just common sense, as far as I'm concerned. Things happen quickly on the roads, and I never want to take my attention/vision completely away from the front. Rural driving is one thing, but urban/congested driving is another. My goal is to look back, and around me, without having to completely lose view of the front, even for a second. Always maintain at least peripheral vision of the front.
First off where the hell is this switch. Second that might work for some people but your rear door handle should be in your mirror not just all road that helps with the blind spot and pretty much with the other side. Me I use all three of my mirrors.
No, I don't think so. I'm about 6'5", so I know that I have to take that into consideration, but the mirrors were pointed in too much. Seems to be the case in almost every ZipCar I get in. People seem to want to use the mirrors to see behind them.
you sound like Joe from family Guy
This is still my favourite comment
This is not right
Youre wrong and this is bad advice.
this is seriously a terrible take and I hate that thanks to the fake president the dislike button has been removed from youtube cause I'd be willing to bet this video has tons of dislikes
