ABSTRACT:
A rearview mirror for passenger vehicles has a primary viewing surface that is substantially flat. This surface curves to the rear of the mirror, with a continuously decreasing radius of curvature, toward at least one lateral edge thereof. This provides peripheral vision to the operator of a vehicle in addition to this vision directly to the rear. The peripheral vision introduces a very gradually increasing rate of distortion as the reflected image approaches the edge of vision. This causes the peripherally reflected images to be easily relatable to those reflected from the primary viewing surface.
