A door mirror device for a vehicle is provided with a mirror housing (18) mounted to a mirror base (16) and is also provided with a folding mechanism (20) for enabling the mirror housing (18) to pivot rearward of the vehicle when a load higher than or equal to a predetermined value is applied to the mirror housing (18) from the front side of the vehicle. When viewed from the front of the vehicle, the mirror housing (18) has a first region (R1) occupying more than half of the vertical area of the mirror housing (18) and also has a second region (R2) occupying a less area than the first region (R1). The outer surface (26) of the second region (R2) is located in front, with respect to the vehicle, of the outer surface (28) of the first region (R1). The acute angle (&thetas;2) in a plan view between the outer surface (26) of the second region (R2) and an outer side surface (14) of the vehicle (11) is set to be greater than the acute angle (&thetas;1) in a plan view between the outer surface (28) of the first region (R1) and the outer side surface (14) of the vehicle (11) (&thetas;1<&thetas;2). |
