Are You in Safe While Moving in Reverse?

Hi Dear Reader,
This week, I am going to tell about the problems which we experience while we are moving in reverse.

Probably many of us had to move in reverse in order to take the road from outer court of office, house or farm. Some of us may has trouble when going to work or going back to home (such as me).Every morning When leaving the site,  I have to move in reverse to take the road. The biggest problem is that while moving in reverse, although half of the car is on the road, I can't still see the main road exactly in order to be sure whether any vehicle comes or not.

as you see the photo below, If this white car's driver want to take the road, he has to moving in reverse. Even if half of the car is on the road, driver can't see anything and can't be sure whether the road is available or not.



There are some blind spot mirrors for these type problems. Also some demonstrations are prepared for these problems and are shared with drivers. I share them to you, too.



As you see the photo above, The car which is described with red arrow is moving in reverse. A car which is described with blue arrow closes the our car. In this photo and in this position, you may think the car driver with red arrow can see the the car with blue arrow, but you are wrong.Unfortunately, he can't see the car.

If you check the photo below, you will see that the side rearview mirror can't reflect the car. Original interior rearview mirror can't reflect anything, too. However while you analyze the next photo, you can notice the car on the mirror easily.







On photos above, owing to reflecting wider area, mirror can provide the driver to see more area. In addition, it reflects the half of the driver window.
Moreover you can see the car behind you easily. So you can see the cars on main road without turning your head left or right, looking back constantly. This mirror has many advantages, but since our topic is moving in reverse, I don't want to digress.

The manufacturer company, Motaysan Rearview Mirrors, presents this mirror to the drivers with TAK@GOR trademark. They call this mirror as "Cover (Panoramic) Mirror". This mirror which you see on photo is one of the cover mirrors. There are many models which are suitable for your vehicles. If you want to see the other model, please click this link.

Setup is very easy. Two elastics, back of the mirror, are held on the interior mirror. The mirror is adjusted according to you. The mirror is ready. You can find this product on virtual mart, auto accessories shops and spare parts shop.

Does Really Blind Spot Mirrors Show Your Blind Spots?

Hi Dear Reader,

We experience that we meet you with this first post. We wish you have a nice week.
Today's post is about blind spot mirrors and whether they are useful or not.
When someone mention blind spot mirrors, probably the first comes in your mind a blind spot mirrors which are sticked on the exterior rearview mirror (side mirror) and which are small mirrors. I share a photo for ones who can't remember:

I try to tell shortly whether they are really effective or not. I tell item by item in order to be more clear.
1. Littleness Problematic:
What does littleness problematic? Let me brief, but before, I need to explain blind spots. Blind spot mirrors' goal is providing drivers to see blind spot. In order to remove the blind spots, there are many techniques. Each mirror tries to remove blind spots by showing all areas; but it is impossible because it has to force objects into the screen (mirror glass). This means objects will be smaller than what they appear.
Thes blind spot mirror normally is small. Just imagine a water bottle cover. Now imagine it on your side mirrors. Then think about that this mirror claim it will remove blind spots. Do you believe it?
2. Photography Problematic:
After reading previous item, if you think "there is no problem, it looks good", you are wrong. Normally this type photography is a technique in order to cheat you. Everyone who drive vehicles and don't drive know that driver's eye level is not like what is seen on the photo. Normal eye level is upper and more behind than the one on photo. İmage that you look this photo upper and more behind. Still do you think this mirrors will helpful?
3. "Is this a really blind spot mirror?" Problematic:
For the last time, let us interpret by using this photo. If they didn't put the little and small mirror on the side mirror, we would have seen white truck clearer than what is seen on the photo. In addition, it can't show the white truck completely; it loses some parts of truck. It is really hard to describe this mirror as a blind spot mirrors.
We think it will be wrong by using one photo and we decide that we support our opinions by using different photos.We think you will find the problems on the photos below. Here you are:




Well, are all blind spot mirrors like that? Of course NOT! Mirrors like that mostly are produced in China, Taiwan etc. They are mainly produced under the counter. However there are still several producers who care blind spots. One them is MOTAYSAN Rearview Mirror.Motaysan desings and produces 10-20 various models in a year. They are expert of blind spots. They also listen their customers always and after evaluating positive and negative critics, they improve their mirrors always.
Firstly, they presented the first instructor mirror in 2016 January. After becoming more popular in a short time, Motaysan have developed this model and made it more useful and more universal. Now cars, trucks, busses, light commercial vehicles can use this model. So let's take a look at this Gözcü Mirrors together. You will understand what the real blind spot mirror is.
We thank you all and wish you have a great week.
