Category: Blind Spot Mirrors

For some time now, there has been a conundrum in the auto industry that has seen the standard side mirrors on vehicles unchanged. Taking into account that the side mirror designs today have differed little from the original design from decades past, it seems that massive opportunities for developing a better alternative to combat the blind spot has arisen. With the number of deaths and collisions on the roads due to lane changing issues at an all time high, surely something has to be done to fix this issue.

A creation called MaxiView Mirrors is the long awaited solution to this key topic. MaxiView uses a unique fully patented design pivotal in solving the issues that many drivers- and indeed vehicles suffer from, with regards to blind spots. Side view mirrors will barely illustrate a portion of what is truly behind and to the side of a vehicle. The image that is reflected is mostly of the vehicle you are within, plus the road straight behind as well as the sky. Undoubtedly, the sky is not a part in determining if it is safe to switch lanes. This is where MaxiView blind spot mirrors are placed in order to provide the slightest disruption to your vision and in order to ‘highlight’ every vehicle or object in your blind spot.

When attaching your pair of MaxiView blind spot mirrors to your existing side mirrors on your vehicle, you can rest assured that it is not a difficult task. Simply reading the instructions that come with the MaxiView blind spot mirrors will give you the best tips to securing them effectively. All MaxiView blind spot mirrors come with their own unique adhesive that will not damage the existing mirror should you decide to remove your blind spot mirrors at some point in future. If you do decide to remove your blind spot mirrors when you sell your vehicle, you can easily use the MaxiView tool to remove them, and know that they can be reapplied to your next vehicle once more.

Placement of the blind spot mirrors should be according to the instructions, and will have them fixed to the upper corner of the side mirror. This is where nothing of great importance to driving is reflected and is where the reflection of the sky can be seen. Now, any driver will tell you that the reflection of the sky does not have any influence over the ability to change lanes safely! Many fo the blind spot mirrors on the market can actually cause more harm than good. The image that is reflected by the MaxiView blind spot mirrors is enlarged by up to three times bigger than the object itself. Other blind spot mirrors on the market reduce the size of the object and come with warnings that objects may appear smaller than they are. This has meant that drivers have had to estimate how far away another vehicle or object is according to the small image being reflected. This has caused confusion and collisions with many drivers incorrectly estimating their ability to safely change lanes. MaxiView blind spot mirrors make lane changes much safer for the driver.

Thinking back to when you first started taking driving lessons, do you recall your instructor requesting that in order to switch lanes that you ought to check your rear view mirror, then check your side mirrors and then if clear, turn within your seat and look over your shoulder to ascertain if there was anyone in your blind spot? I must admit that I am still astounded that even today the same instruction exists. I can only imagine the risk that a driver, especially a learning driver, puts them self at when taking their eyes from the road to shift weight in their seat and look behind them all travelling at 60 miles an hour.

So what is the solution to this crazy piece of instruction? Well, establishing if there is a vehicle in the blind spot has been a challenge for many years regardless of the vehicle that you drive. All vehicles have a blind spot and depending on the make and model of the vehicle, some blind spots are worst than others. Trucks and motorcycles also have blind spots. So how do we solve this problem? Up until now there has been a very limited degree of successful mirrors that have been able to easily identify the object within the blind spot. MaxiView blind spot mirrors however, have developed a stick on blind spot mirror that has easily and safely enabled drivers to ascertain what is in their blind spot and act accordingly.

The MaxiView blind spot mirror has a unique and fully patented 360 degree ball and swivel, which means that it can be adjusted and placed to suit any driver regardless of their height and seating position within the drivers seat. The design of the ball and swivel designed by MaxiView enable the most possible lateral and side view of your vehicle in order to expose anything that may be hidden away in your blind spot. There is absolutely no other stick on mirror in the world that offers this much flexibility and adjustment. What this means is that the driver will no longer have to turn their body and take their eyes from the road when checking for anything in their blind spot. With the MaxiView blind spot mirrors the driver is able to remain looking straight ahead and yet have full view of what is going on around and to the rear of their vehicle.

Attaching your MaxiView blind spot mirrors to your existing side mirrors on your vehicle is simple and straightforward. The super adhesive bonding material used is the same that surgeons use in replace of stitches today. This means your blind spot mirrors can put up with the worst of weather extremes and still go to work for you to provide the safest driving experience for your vehicle. The 360 degree ball and swivel technology means that the driver can get the most lateral and side vision of the rear and side of their vehicle without having to take their eyes from the road. No more turning in your seat to see if anyone is in the blind spot when you have MaxiView blind spot mirrors.

When you’re next in your car, take a look at the side mirrors on the vehicles around you. Some of them may have a blind spot mirror, perhaps your vehicle has one as well? A blind spot is an area that cannot be seen by the driver that sits along the side and rear of the vehicle they are driving. Depending on the make and model of the vehicle, some blind spots can be larger than others and are capable of “hiding” entire vehicles in there. Trucks,motorcycles and buses as well as cars all have blind spots. Some vehicles are fitted with a mirror that was supposed to remedy the problem but in many cases they made things worse. These mirrors usually come with warnings that objects may be closer than they appear.

Bubble or fish eye mirrors are not effective as they reduce the size of the vehicle or object that you are trying to avoid. If you are going to avoid it wouldn’t you want as much warning as possible? That’s why the MaxiView blind spot mirror designed their mirrors to reflect objects up to three times their actual size. They attach to the inside upper corner of your existing mirrors and replace the area that would have only reflected the sky. This allows the driver to have full vision of anything in their blind spot without having to change position in their seat. Using a fully patented 360 degree ball and swivel design this blind spot mirror will allow for the most adjustability with maximum side and lateral movement than any other stick on mirror in the world. Every time you get behind the wheel of your vehicle, do you know what is in your blind spot? For less than $30 a pair you can be certain of what is around you while driving. MaxiView Blind Spot Mirrors can offer you that peace of mind.

Check your daily radio or newspaper and you are bound to see a report on a collision on your states highways that has involved the unsafe changing of lanes. This isn’t even making news in many parts of our country as it is such a common occurrence. Sadly, many lives are lost each year due to unsafe lane changes. So what is the cause of these horrible collisions? Most times it is due to the driver simply not seeing the other vehicle in their blind spot. Every car has one and you can bet that every truck and motorcycle on our roads has one as well. What danger is lurking in your blind spot every time you get behind the wheel?

MaxiView blind spot mirrors came up with the solution to the accident s and near misses that occur every day on our roads. The standard mirrors that are on your vehicle today are not equipped to highlight the objects or other vehicles that are in the blind spot. Other manufacturers tried to come up with an alternative and developed the fish eye or bubble mirror. These are impractical as they reduce the size of the object so much that the driver not only has to strain to see what is behind them but they also have to mentally calculate the safety of making a lane change based on an estimate of the other vehicles distance. This is a recipe for disaster that gets played out again and again on our roads daily.

MaxiView blind spot mirrors put an end to the warnings on those other mirrors that state objects may be larger than they seem. MaxiView blind spot mirrors enlarge the object in the mirror by three times its actual size, giving the driver ample time to make a decision as to changing lanes. At less than $30 a pair, can you afford to get behind the wheel without them?

If you have done any driving on our nations highways then you would have no doubt either been a part of , been a witness to or been guilty of a lane change that has caused a collision or a near miss. You can be driving along, minding your own business when the car just in front of you in the next lane decides to place their indicator on and make a lane change. They can either hit you or miss you with only fractions of room to clear. The reason why they didn’t see you, even though you’re travelling in a vehicle that is at least 3 meters long and weighing a couple of ton, is because you were in the other vehicles blind spot. They may have checked their rear vision mirrors and they probably took a look in their side mirrors but the blind spot will still conceal you and your vehicle unless they took the extra step of leaning forward as far as they can to get as much reflection out of their side mirrors, or if they turned in their seat, taking their eyes from the road and checked over their shoulder to see you.

The blind spot mirrors that have been on the market up until now have done little to curb the critical issue of blind spots on motor vehicles. In fact they have been known to make the problem worse. Other mirrors will reduce the size of the vehicle that you are trying to avoid and that is why they come with warnings stating things like “objects may be closer than they seem”. MaxiView blind spot mirrors saw the craziness in this and decided to develop a mirror that actually increased the size of the object you are trying to avoid by up to three times its normal size, so as to give the driver loads of time to make their decision on whether it is safe to make the lane change or not.

There you are on the highway. Traffic isn’t too bad and you are enjoying the ride and letting your mind run free with plans for the weekend. The little red car in front of you keeps speeding up and slowing down and it is starting to annoy you. Seeing a break in the oncoming traffic behind you, you decide to move around the red car and change lanes. A quick check in the rear vision mirror confirms you are clear , and then a glance in your side mirror tells you it is safe to change. Flicking on your indicator you begin your lane change when WHAM! You hit a car in the next lane.

Where on earth did they come from? You honestly didn’t see them there and now the driver is abusing you for not checking before you changed lanes. The other vehicle was travelling in your vehicles blind spot. Unless you took the extra effort of swinging around and looking over your shoulder to see if anyone was there, or leaning so far forward that you are touching your steering wheel to see in the side mirrors for anything behind you, you will not be able to see anyone that is in your blind spot.

We can be grateful that MaxiView blind spot mirrors decided to find a way to combat this dilemma for motorists. Most of the blind spot mirrors on the market today reduce the size of the target you’re trying to miss. Does this sound a little ridiculous to you? Making the object smaller and then requiring the driver to make an estimate as to their safety in lane changing is a ludicrous way to combat this issue. Thankfully, MaxiView blind spot mirrors were innovative enough to design a mirror that reproduced the object reflected by up to three times its actual size. This gives drivers more than enough time to make a decision based on clearance and safety in lane changes.

Blind spots occur in every make of vehicle. You can have the biggest hunk of junk in the yard or you can be in a vehicle that costs more than the average family home and still have a blind spot. With the majority of collisions on the roads that occur from lane changes due to blind spots, someone had to do something about the dilemma facing us all. MaxiView blind spot mirrors have developed the answer to your blind spot problems. It doesn’t matter how tall or short you are, the MaxiView blind spot mirror is the worlds most adjustable stick on mirror with side to side and lateral adjustability.

MaxiView blind spot mirrors took the humble side mirror of today’s vehicles and studied them hard. When you consider the view that you get in your side mirrors you can imagine that it is made up of the road that falls behind you, part of the vehicle they are attached to and also the sky. What use does the sky have in making a lane change? Absolutely none, and that is exactly where the MaxiView blind spot mirror is placed. That way , no vision is compromised when they are attached to your existing mirrors and with the amazing adjustability, you can keep your eyes on the road and still be aware at all ties of what is in your blind spot.

The mirrors that are on the market today that try to combat this problem cause more dramas than solve them. These bubble or fish eye mirrors will reduce the size of the object meaning that the driver now has to estimate and basically guess how far away the other vehicle is to them. MaxiView blind spot mirrors took the ingenious step of enlarging objects so that the driver has more than enough time to make a decision to change lanes.
