Why YSK: The side mirrors on a car are not for looking directly back behind the car. They should be angled out a little from the car to check your blindspots.

It seems like the logical thing to do, but when I first started driving I had no idea how the side mirrors had to be adjusted. I eventually decided that I should at least have it angled to see the other lanes for when I wanted to merge. It wasn’t until much later that I learned that the side mirrors could and should be used to check the back of the car as well.
You don’t really need to see the back of your car, i mean you can ask why but i don’t really know.
