WARNING Risk of accident due to mis‐
judgement of distances when using the
outside mirror
The outside mirrors reflect objects on a
smaller scale. The objects in view are in fact
closer than they appear.
As a result, you may misjudge the distance
between you and the road user driving
behind you, e.g. when changing lanes.
#
Therefore, always look over your shoul‐
der in order to ensure that you are
aware of the actual distance between
you and the road users driving behind
you.
