Can't we solve the blind spot problem by making mirrors curved?

i was driving today and thought we could eliminate blind spots and get a wider rear view if the mirrors on the cars where curved outward, that way we could see the blind spot on the left part of the mirror and get a wider view behind us. isn't that a good idea? will it work?

PUT A BIT OF EFFORT INTO DRIVING!!!

Set up your mirrors correctly and a quick glance over your shoulder will allow you to see if there is anything in your blind spot.

Yeah, those would help but they wouldn't eliminate blind spots completely. I drive a semi and it has 6 mirrors 4 of which are curved. They do help alot but there are still times when you lose stuff. You would still need the regular mirrors on your car too, because the curved ones make stuff look much smaller and further away then it really is.

if you set your mirrors up properly, checking your blind spot is almost as easy as looking at the mirror.

If you just use your mirrors, look over your shoulder and if needed get a spot mirror your blind spot would be gone......

You can go to ANY auto parts store and buy those little bubble mirrors that stick on with adhesive. I have them on my pickup. and never have to look over my shoulder, as there ARE no blind spots.

Not really. If it were, such mirrors would be standard equipment.
