Talk:Objects in mirror are closer than they appear

Capitalization
Shouldn't this probably have normal wikipedia capitalization (first letter of first word capitalized, the rest lowercase)? It's just a phrase, not a title.Prezbo (talk) 08:31, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

Looks like the phrase is not required in Canada
Looking at the Canadian regulations on mirrors, there is no reference to requiring the phrase. So the removal of Canada seems correct. LouScheffer (talk) 21:04, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

Meatloaf " the opposite of the safety warning."???
Anyone know what this disclaimer is supposed to mean? It seems to clearly be wrong. The point of the song is that although the memories seem like yesterday they are the memories of a middle aged man's childhood. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RobertGary1 (talk • contribs) 18:33, 18 August 2017 (UTC)

The diagram is misleading
"objects in mirror are closer than they appear" because they are too-small in the mirror, *because the mirror is convex*. The distance from the driver's head is not the reason for the warning. That distance due to driver position is trivial compared to the actual distance of obstacles and to the distortion of the complex lens. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.33.77.26 (talk) 22:15, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Agree. The diagram and explanation would make sense only if the subject were a laser rangefinder or such, rather than a human being. I have boldly deleted the graphic; a pity, as it was a fine piece of work. I could add that the engraved warning is too small to see on a passenger-side mirror, but that would be original research.
