Tip 3 for staying comfortable behind the wheel is concerned with mirror position – short and sweet!
Adjust mirrors
After adjusting your seat and steering wheel positions (these must be made first – check out the previous two days tips), make adjustments to your mirror positions (rear view and side mirrors) as needed. Ensure these mirror positions are set so it takes minimal change of your body position to check these.
If you have your mirrors adjusted correctly these are a great cue for you. Keep an eye on them, as if they begin to feel like they need to be adjusted, this is a good reminder for you to check your posture, adjust your position and if needed, take a break as it is more likely you are slouching and getting tired rather than the mirror position is incorrect. Listen to your body!
