How Should the Wing Mirrors Be Adjusted for Optimal Efficiency?

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Side mirror

Correct adjustment of electric mirrors is essential for proper visibility and safe driving. The driver's side mirror should be adjusted to see the rear door handle, as shown in the video, in the lower right part of the mirror itself. This minimises the blind spot. The same position should be found for the passenger side mirror: the driver should be able to see, in the lower left corner, the rear door handle. For the central mirror, it should be adjusted to see the rear window edge, with the tips of the headrests visible.
