Abstract
The rear view mirror (10) has a composite surface including a primary reflecting surface (11). It may be planar and formed with a secondary or auxiliary mirror section (14), that has an arcuately curved reflecting surface, in a corner area of the primary mirror. The auxiliary mirror is effectively non-obstructing in normal use of the primary mirror, but of sufficient size and configuration as to produce a reflected image of a relatively large angular field of view in a horizontal plane w.r.t. that of the primary mirror. The auxiliary mirror is integrally formed with the primary mirror and may be on the front or rear.
