& 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.
An incorrectly adjusted outside mirror may impair
visibility.
Always check the positions of the outside mir‐
#
rors on the vehicle before starting a journey.
