    Thought about adding another poll to the other polls we already have, this time with the use of mirrors. Which of them do you use the most?

    All of them because each has a blindspot that's compensated for by the other two. Plus, I turn my head and body around just to make sure I'm clear in the back. To top it off, I also have a tiny "wide-view" concave mirror on the driver-side rear view mirror.

    Me kanya-kanyang use naman yan.

    Side mirrors are for changing lane + parking. Readviews are for backing lang talaga kasi nga mga trucks wala naman nito. Usually me guide lang mga yan.

    all 3 din. it's good practice to look at the mirrors even though you are not making a turn so that you will be aware of everything around your vehicle. you'll never know when you need to make a sudden maneuver to avoid an accident, and best to know where to turn that wheel.

    yung mga tricycle sa amin meron sila mirror sa loob ng cab, nakatutok sa seat. pamboso sa mga nene.

    On my Honda CRV, I have a small right fender mirror that I find very helpful, for me to check the right side area below and beside the right side mirror.

    And yes, I use all four mirrors of my crv in the following frequency: interior rear mirror > right side mirror > right fender mirror > left side mirror.

    On my strada, which does not have a fender mirror, I use the 3 mirrors, as follows: interior rear mirror > right side mirror > left side mirror. This is true with all my other vehicles.

    I use all three of them.

    I always "change" the rear view mirror with a longer one,- usually 10-inch long to cover more area at the back/side of the vehicle...

    OT:Broadway na brand ang palagi kong binibiling kapalit....

    Left and right side mirrors. When backing, rear view atsaka when I'm decelerating kasi I need to know if there are vehicles that are too close to my rear.

    OFF TOPIC pero related : When I got my Familia from the vendor, the original rear view mirror was no longer there. It was replaced with a short mirror that is mounted on the windshield with a suction cup. I found the mirror inadequate so I bought a clip-on type to lengthen my view of the back. Problem is, may tendency na mag-vibrate yung clip-on so naduduling ako pag gumagalaw na yung auto. I tried to find a new rear view mirror that is longer and more stable. Wala akong makita, puro clip-on lang. Can anyone advise me where to find stable rear view mirrors that come with their own mount/suction cup? Gigil na ako sa clip-on, feeling ko pati anytime eh pwedeng malaglag. Thanks, tsikoteers.
