If you’re like most drivers, you probably clear your car’s mirrors at least once a week. But clearing your mirrors can be a quick and easy task - even if you don’t have much time. Here’s how to do it in less than five minutes:

  1. Park your car in a safe location.
  2. Turn off the engine and remove the key from the ignition.
  3. Open the door and get out of the car.
  4. Clear any obstructions from in front of and behind your mirror with a piece of cardboard or a broomstick.
  5. Reach up behind your mirror and grasp the frame with both hands, then pull down on it until it clears the mirror surface. Be sure to hold on while you do this!
  6. Close your door and re-insert your key into the ignition, then start your engine and drive away ..
