RE: [ST] Safe Driving Tips.

["Chris Strizver" <strizver@xxxxxxxx>]

I wish all cage drivers set their side mirrors this way. The fact that they
don't is the primary reason I ride on the right side of the left lane, and
the left side of the right lane. (US lanes, that is) I'd rather not be so
close to the cars in the other lane, but I know I'm more likely to be
spotted by them.

I've tried to get my wife to adjust her mirrors properly, but she refuses. I
guess people just like to see the side of their car in the view. Perhaps
they need that reference point to know where what they're looking at is.

This message came through our company safety network - it's about a better
way to set the side mirrors on your car, to reduce blind spots.  I've just
uploaded the Powerpoint file.  Try it, see what you think and if it works,
tell everyone you know.  Who knows, it might just prevent some car driver
saying "sorry mate, I didn't see you!" to an unfortunate biker!

Maybe there's a better way to set your bike mirrors too, so that you see
your blind spot not your elbows?
