Correct answer
- CPermitir una visibilidad clara hacia atrás y hacia los lados del vehículo.To give a clear view behind and to the sides of the vehicle.
A vehicle's mirror lets the driver see clearly what is happening behind and to the sides of the vehicle. This makes driving safer by making it easier to notice other vehicles and objects nearby. This is especially important for manoeuvres such as changing lanes or turning, where it is crucial to know what is happening in areas that may be outside the driver's direct field of view.
