Can be easily adapted to the vehicle driver.

  In addition, in a state where the vehicle driver and the side window glass 34 colored between the vehicle exterior mirrors 27L and 27R are interposed in a non-glare-proof state, the vehicle interior mirrors 28L and 28R are substantially the same as the side window glass 34. Since it is colored in the same color, the color of the reflected image by the vehicle exterior mirrors 27L and 27R obtained through the side window glass 34 and the rear window glass 26 that is uncolored, that is, colorless and transparent, are transmitted through the vehicle. The color tone of the reflected images obtained by the interior mirrors 28L and 28R can be made substantially the same, and the images obtained by the exterior mirrors 27L and 27R and the interior mirrors 28L and 28R can be integrated so as to be easily visible. Can do.

  Further, the vehicle interior mirrors 28L and 28R are electrochromic mirrors that are colored in substantially the same color as the side window glass 34 according to voltage application, and the window glass opening detection sensor 86 that detects the opening of the side window glass 34. When the opening of the side window glass 34 is detected, the electric charges of the vehicle interior mirrors 28L and 28R are removed by the control unit 84. Therefore, the coloring of the vehicle interior mirrors 28L and 28R is stopped when the side window glass 34 is opened. Thus, the color tone of the reflected images obtained by the exterior mirrors 27L and 27R and the interior mirrors 28L and 28R can be made substantially the same regardless of whether the side window glass 34 is opened or closed.

  Furthermore, since the exterior mirrors 27L, 27R and the interior mirrors 28L, 28R can be in an anti-glare state, it is possible to prevent the vehicle driver from being dazzled by the reflection of light from the light source behind the vehicle. it can.
