What’s going on… where is the next episode?
Great advice! I see about 99% of friends and family members adjusting their mirrors incorrectly. When you tell them to do it correctly, they don’t believe you or blow you off as they are so used to their "wrong" adjustments. This needs to be taught in all driving classes/schools before you can get your permits/licenses.
That adjustment could work only on highway
What!? You telling me you don’t set the side mirrors so you can check yourself out!? Learn something everyday!
Cooley!Cooley!Cooley!Cooley!Cooley!Cooley!Cooley!Cooley!Cooley!
Wtf is this shit?! Make a real video or don’t make anything. This channel is terrible
*Cooley ftw*
I learned this tip some years ago when I went to a driving school to get an insurance discount. It really is a big help. I surprised more people don’t position them using these techniques.
Don’t even care about this simplicity, it has cooley in it!
Well, hello Brian.
This channel has truly gone to absolute shit
these are awesome videos you guys have been coming out with and many people don’t know then and usually have to coach them when I’m with friends!
Cooley is literally your BEST editor put him on reviews!! Not mirror videos!! leave that crap to the newbies
bring back the full length show please Mr.Cooley
I look for bad mirror adjustment when people cut me off. Worse than that though, is when people have tons of room to merge but seem afraid to do so. I can always see their faces in their side mirrors, even though I am now directly behind them. They have no idea what is happening around them in traffic, because they’ve given themselves giant blind spots.
Review that alpina
If you drive like a normal person these mirror adjustments probably work. If not, future sti and type r owners, you need some of those tiny stick-on blind spot mirrors. You’ll thank me later.
Like my father used to say, "adjust your mirrors just past where you can see the side of your own car because you can’t run into your own car so you don’t need to see it in the mirror."
When this is done there are no blind spots.
Brian Cooley is a direct descendant of the three wise men.
my car doesn’t have side mirror or rear mirror
I love these Cooley how to videos
Where’s the B7 review?
Ahhhh Cooley….this is what they have you doing now 😩
This is excellent advice. You can find it on AAA and Car and Driver websites too. The society of automotive engineers published a paper on this on 1995. Very few drivers follow this advice, but blind spot monitoring will reduce the number of accidents caused improper mirror positioning.
Isn’t this a super old video from the cnet channel?
I know people who don’t know what a blind spot is. ….like WTF
I adjust my mirrors by going to parking lot that’s half empty. I adjust the side mirrors until they start covering what the rearview mirror sees on its left and right corners. It gives you a panorama view of to the side and the rear of car and you never lose sight of a vehicle.
For parallel parking and tight corners I use Maxiview blind spot mirrors and use them like the small mirror on busses and trucks. Now I can see cars 3 lanes over when driving _and_ the curb when parking, works great. Should be standard equipment.
this video is repeated!!
When your car side mirrors dont work.😑
doesnt matter where my mirror face, i stick cooley’s face on my mirror
How about Cooley review a damn car
Only Brian Cooley would do this in an Alpina B7…. also, not that I care how to adjust my mirrors, but, Brian Cooley.
Learned this when I was "required" to take driving school. Some of the best instructions I’ve ever received.
Unfortunately, this doesn’t work in states that allow lane splitting. Another good reason to ban the practice.
What’s up with the 360P video? Did Mr. Cooley lose his HD camera?
If you can’t adjust your mirrors correctly… Get off the fucking road!
I usually position my mirrors with the inner edge of the mirror lined up with the edge of the door handle same as your example with just a sliver of car visible in mirror. Gives me a good line of sight for many lanes next to me on either side. Good video though Mr. Cooley
