So I was picking up my son from school today and was sitting in the car staring out of my rear view and side view mirrors of my car and I got to thinking....
Why do objects in your side view mirror *appear* farther away then what they *actually are*?
Do they WANT us to get into wrecks while we are switching lanes, thinking "that car is farther back, its safe to switch lanes now"?
Here is what the text says on my side view mirror *Objects are closer then they appear*.
I just don't get why they cant make a mirror that shows us a more precise view of what we need to see.
