If you’re got the rear view, use it and save yourself.

Seems a no brainer.

... Am I supposed to move my side mirrors out of place every time when someone blinds me through them?

How about switch off your fucking high beams when you're driving behind another car instead of making them adjust their mirrors. Not all cars even have rear view mirrors. Vans don't. Mine's aimed at the rear seat so I can see what my kid's doing.

You can't even pass the driving exam here if you use your rear view mirror instead of side mirrors.

What? Why?

Why are you constantly adjusting your mirrors? You set them and leave them.

Not all cars even have rear view mirrors. Vans don't.

Most come with back up cameras now, maybe install one.

Lmfao, you are an idiot.

That’s just making shit up.

What? Why?

You were recommending people adjust them to not see behind them when there's someone blinding them. Or were you recommending just setting them far off to the side all the time so you can never use them?

You ARE aware that those usually only come on when reversing though, right? Right? And are aimed downwards?

Takes one to know one

No, you literally have to visibly move your head to check the side mirrors before maneuvers (including lane changes) for your driver's exam here because you can't rely on the rear view mirror alone. Your side mirrors have to show the blind spots on the side and behind you, not the side of the road or whatever you aim them at.

If you're ever driving behind me with your high beams on and there's nobody else in my car, I'm going to brake check you. Your insurance can pay for my next car.
