Which mirror is used in rear view and why?
The ORVMs (Outsider rear-view mirrors) are generally convex mirror, while the inside mirror is typically a plane one.
Convex mirrors are curved mirrors that give a “compressed” view rather than a flat view. As a result, they cover a wider field of view and objects in the mirrorappear smaller. This minimizes blind spots but also creates the illusion that things in the mirror are further away.
