Adjust the mirrors so you can see to each side of the vehicle. You may want to ride a bike.

So that you can look into them and see what is behind you would be a good start, don't you think so?

I hate to ask, but did you win your license in the bingo?

Just so that you can see yourself all the time.

Your 2 outside mirrors should be adjusted for a maximum view of the road with just a little bit of view of the side of your vehicle, and more of the road than the sky.
Your inside mirror should be adjusted so you can see straight out the rear, and just a little bit to the right so you can see traffic off to your right rear.
Try to cover as much of your "blind spots" as possible with your mirrors.

Marriors should be agested as needed. The rule is that you can see the Car behind you out the back window and see the edge of the side of the car on the side marriors. Thats it.

how would the day light or night time make any difference for how the mirrors need to be adjusted. Mine are always the same!!!

Hi. There is a terrific explanation on the Web of how to adjust your mirrors to avoid the "blind spot."

Go to the public radio show "Car Talk."

http://www.cartalk.com/

Do a search in the Search box for blind spot. You'll get lots of results, with a step by step instruction on making your mirrors a safe tool.

Good luck...and remember, no question is a dumb question if it will save lives.
