PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vehicular mirror which enhances the visibility by increasing the size of an image projected on a mirror on a forward passenger seat side separate from a driver's seat and by enlarging the indirect view range without impairing the present direct view range. SOLUTION: In order to increase the size of an image projected on a forward passenger seat side mirror P1 to be larger than the size of an image projected on a driver's seat side mirror D, the radius of curvature RP1 of the forward passenger seat side mirror P1 and the radius of curvature RD of the driver's seat side mirror D are set to satisfy an inequality RP1>RD. The radius of curvature RD of the driver's seat side mirror D is set to be R620, and the radius of curvature RP1 of the forward passenger seat side mirror P1 is set to be R1000, and the size of the image projected on the forward passenger seat side mirror P1 is increased thereby. An auxiliary mirror P2 is provided on the lower side of the passenger seat side mirror P1. The radius of curvature RP2 of the auxiliary mirror P2 and the radius of curvature RD of the driver's seat side mirror D are determined to satisfy an inequality RP2<PD. A pivot is provided to vary the angle of a mirror surface of the auxiliary mirror P2. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
