Adjusting side view mirrors
Our local news station ran This story on how to properly adjust your vehicles mirrors a few days ago. I thought it was worth the share. Thanks! Jeremiah

Talk about setting people up for problems! First I've never set my mirrors that way. How can you tell the relationship of the car in the mirror against your car? You just can't verify where the car is exactly located. I set my mirrors so I can see the very edge of the side of the car. This gives me the perspective of my car and the car in the next lane! I always look in the mirror and give a quick glance to make sure no one is next to me. Either way you set the mirror you should always give a quick glance to make sure no one is next to you!
I've gotten into customers cars at work that have their mirrors set like the article suggests. I'm always wondering where the side of the car is! Can't be too safe to set them like that!
You are one of many who set their mirrors wrong and it is very dangerous, you don't need to see your car in the mirror that just gives you dangerous blind spots, you are in the car and it there is something that close to you, you will see it in your mirror if it is set correctly.
