Outside Convex Mirror

CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other vehicles) look farther away than they really are. If you cut too sharply into the right or left lane, you could hit a vehicle.

Check your inside mirror or glance over your shoulder before changing lanes.

The passenger’s outside mirror is convex. A convex mirror’s surface is curved so more can be seen from the driver’s seat.
