Abstract

See full text

A mirror assembly for attachment to a vehicle such as a motorhome or semi-truck includes a first mirror plane adjusted to bring the distant rearward right highway lane into view of the driver, a second mirror plane adjusted downward and outward to bring to the driver's eye a view of only 50 feet of rearward right lane, and a bugeye mirror for bringing to the driver's eye a view of an immediately adjacent vehicle being passed. When the driver of the passing vehicle has passed the other vehicle, he knows it is safe to pull back into the right lane, ahead of the passed vehicle, when the images of both headlights of the passed vehicle come into a predetermined relationship with the second plane mirror.
