There are loads of vans and trucks that don't have a rear window to see thru at all. I can't imagine rear view mirrors are a legal requirement for vans anywhere

There are loads of vans and trucks that don't have a rear window to see thru at all. I can't imagine rear view mirrors are a legal requirement for vans anywhere on Earth.
- catlover76 3y agoSurprising!
- troupo 3y agoWhy is it surprising? How do you imagine a rear view mirror would work in a van/truck?
- kube-system 3y agoI think the strictest laws in the US require a total of two rear-facing mirrors. (Some states allow vehicles with only one mirror) So, two side mirrors count. Back in the early 90s you could buy new cars that came with only a driver side mirror and an interior rear-view mirror -- the passenger side mirror was an option!
- buildsjets 3y agoYes. I had to install one on a Volvo 760 wagon that came without. Also installed a center-mounted stop light for it as those were still optional/just being introduced.
- BHSPitMonkey 3y agoSurprising? There is no rear windshield in said vans and cargo trucks, so a center rear view mirror would just show you the back of the cab...
