If you can see the same car in more than one of your mirrors at once, You're Doing It Wrong

If you can see ANY part of YOUR OWN car in EITHER of your side mirrors, You're Doing It Wrong.

People, why am I always having to tell you how to drive?

If I'm directly behind you at a light, and I can see your stupid face in your side mirror, you're an idiot. Fix your goddamned mirrors before you kill somebody! >=(

In this situation, it's so refreshing, yet incredibly rare, to see the side of someone's car in their driver's side mirror instead of their face looking at me. I smile a little when that happens, and I feel a little safer because I know that the person in front of me is intelligent and aware of their surroundings. 🙂

Please do yourself and everyone around a favor, and be a safer, more aware driver. Adjust your side mirrors so that the sides of your car are just out of view.

Thank you.
