2021 Hyundai Palisade Side View Mirrors for Trucks

Why Side View Mirrors Are Essential

Side-view mirrors are essential to every truck, Jeep, or SUV. These components drastically expand your field of view while driving, allowing you to view your rear-facing surroundings with nothing more than a glance. Especially when paired with integrated blind spot mirrors, as with several tow mirrors, side view mirrors help to keep you from getting in accidents and cutting off surrounding drivers. 

Aside from their practicality, side view mirrors are also required by law to operate on public roadways. State regulations mandate at least two operational mirrors—one on the driver’s side and one anywhere else with a clear view of the rear of your vehicle—to operate. That means, if your driver’s mirror is damaged or you’re missing the passenger and rearview mirror, you can be fined. The same rule also applies to passing safety inspections.
