Forward viewing aid for vehicle drivers.

摘要

A forward viewing aid for vehicle drivers is intended particularly for drivers driving on the other side of the road to that for which their vehicles are equipped. It consists of a pair of mirrors (13, 14) arranged side by side so that the driver extends his field of view to see around obstructions ahead of the vehicle. One mirror (13) is a forward-facing mirror and reflections from this mirror are transmitted to the other mirror (14) which faces the driver. In one arrangement the mirrors are in a box-like assembly supported adjustably on a stem (11) which is in turn mounted on a bracket (12) clamped to the vehicle. To provide for the bracket (12) to be readily detached from the vehicle, there is a clamping arrangement by which the bracket (12) is only removable on lifting the vehicle bonnet.
