Have you ever asked yourself the role of the tiny mirror in the rear view mirror of a car. See out

Most drivers and people on board tend to use side mirrors to wipe of dirt from their faces, take off some wax from their ears and even ladies go as far as applying make up using them. Am not saying this is wrong but many get surprised by getting another small mirror in the bigger mirror. See what it's there for.

It's called the blind spot mirror and it's main role is to help the driver see places he can't see easily. It also helps the driver to keep everything in lane and also on overtaking. It aids the driver in seeing portions of the road that are out of direct view and are not visible in the primary mirror.

In a busy and packed parking lot, the mirror will provide the best view to keep the chauffeur or driver from hitting other cars. Better parking skills are also sharpened using the little mirror as professional drivers don't hung out their heads when reversing or parking.

In a busy traffic, the mirror can be used to monitor and follow up who's behind you. How close they are and you'll easily know when someone is about to hit you. Generally, the mirror is key for safety and prevent accidents in our roads.
