摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The outside rear view mirror (1) has a housing (2) and a mirror element (3), which are formed in a housing interior space, where a light display device is provided with two or more separately controllable light segments. The light display device consisting of light segments is formed with a light strip, particularly a light emitting diode band (6). The light display device is disposed between the housing and the mirror element for illuminating a gap (7) formed in the interior of the housing. #CMT# : #/CMT# Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a method for displaying critical traffic situations using an outside rear view mirror; and (2) an information device for a vehicle for informing a driver about critical traffic situations. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Outside rear view mirror for a motor vehicle. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The light display device consisting of light segments is formed with a light strip, particularly a light emitting diode band, and hence ensures improving the information and warning providing efficiency in a cost-effective manner. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic view of an arrangement of a light emitting diode strip in an outside rear view mirror. 1 : Outside rear view mirror 2 : Housing 3 : Mirror element 6 : Light emitting diode band 7 : Gap.
