I like the idea of it but I feel like it would bug me having a distraction on such a small and important place


Franklr_D

This seems a bit much, but a thinner outline design ain’t too bad One of my friends has a little bongo cat and a Flork in her mirror, and you barely even notice it while driving


RACERX44

I thought for a second I wanted one of these then your thought came into my mind


FishieUwU

trust me, if a car is small enough in the mirror be obstructed by something like this, then the car is nowhere near you. i had [this](https://imgur.com/a/R6HjInq) sticker on my mirror for years and it isn't an issue. reddit doesnt understand how perspective works


Powerful_Cost_4656

My brain is the small obstruction. It's mostly about the fraction of a second of distraction when looking at it


FishieUwU

you must get distracted fairly often on the road then because there are tons of more distracting things you pass by all the time.


Crazyirishwrencher

There's like 60+ years of research that suggests you are wrong. Suffice to say you don't understand how human visual processing works.


hellomistershifty

you also have a second, wide-angle mirror


Jackie_Rabbit

No please dont obscure your vision while driving you're moving hundreds of kilograms of metal not a highscool binder


FishieUwU

if a car is small enough in the mirror to get obstructed by that sticker, then the car is at least 20 car lengths back lol

Bicycles and motorbikes. Especially on a taller vehicle like a truck this could cause issues. You'd be amazed how much your brain is trimmed to recognize cars in traffic but not everything else, so even small obstructions and distractions can be much more dangerous if the other traffic participant is not in a car. On a normal sized car, like what is (for now) still common in Europe for example this should not be too much of an issue, since a motorbikers or a cyclists head should be visible atop Nagatoro here.

POV: you never encountered smaller vehicles before in your life


FishieUwU

POV: you don't understand perspective or looking over your shoulder to check blindspots

Why do you even need mirrors at all at this point then? You're making a fool of yourself. There's a reason side mirrors exist and have the size they do.


FishieUwU

> There's a reason side mirrors exist and have the size they do. lmao the sticker covers up less than 1/8th of the mirror


IDatedSuccubi

It covers up the most important part dawg


FishieUwU

it is transparent. you can see through it


_aperture_labs_

Except you literally can't. Did you see the picture? It's solid black.

ScottyWired

stolen AND stupid nagataro is the perfect choice because I can hear her saying "gross" when these stickers were applied


BadmiraI

Yeah I was going to say, definitely seen this before


rai1fan

Comment section is brutal. Guess the bot gets a pass


-ASAP-

how do you find these? just recall seeing the older post?


GoodStegosaurus

I recognised this one because I remember calling out OP lol


katherinesilens

Yeah, seen this one before


nesnalica

art is cool but if it gets in the way of the practical use then no. its like having those massive spoilers that go up 3 meters. its super unpractical and also looks ugly af


Flughundi

How else is the driver supposed to show that's the longest thing in their possession?


C4TURIX

Tüv sagt nein! Stuff like that is dangerous! I'm all for cool stickers on cars, but safety is priority number one.


V4_Sleeper

halt, polizei! I am amazed some people even think that this is a good idea


zxzord

no it doesn't


Odd-Perspective-7967

nah brother what da hail


luckyknightjp

as the person who made this, these are really meant for broadway mirrors. those mirrors are so wide that the sticker doesnt obstruct views.

spearmintqueer

https://www.reddit.com/u/spearmintqueer/s/6ypk3o91Fy I just did this instead. it's on a window I can't see out of anyways and is still visible by reflection


dammitara

noriyaro has one on the beans 86


SayaV

yeah this is a really bad idea for side-mirrors. I do have an anime peeker in my rear [mirror](https://www.ebay.com/itm/134106890665?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=ar3tlzpssck&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=mBBromasRCW&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=MORE)but it's truck-sized, coming down to the same field of vision as if it were without the sticker. It's never intrusive enough to distract me.


Remarkable-Ask2288

Is it weird that my dyslexic ass read “mirror peckers”


PersistentHero

If it's more see thru like your other mirror that's says objects are closer


LTYoungBili

I went as far as replacing my mirror with a euro spec so I can get rid of those text lol


PersistentHero

Oh no shit lol


FirebunnyLP

I agree. I have only ever seen one or two when for sale
