Dear Kesav Sir, did you see this presentation, sir? I hope this is the right time to recall one thing from our previous discussion. Just inspect and note down the safety issues. In a thread, you mentioned, "Raghu, we tend to follow what others, especially Americans, have written. It's time to start questioning and convincing ourselves before accepting things." I realize that now (Experience makes a man perfect). Always stay in touch (Don't give us a big/long break/interval!).

Feedback on 90 Degree Side Mirror PPT

Dear all, one of our EHS members, Mr. Balaji, uploaded the 90 Degree side mirror PPT. I tried using it today, but it's not yielding the best results for me, especially in the context of Indian traffic/roads. It may be more suitable for US roads. Let's wait for feedback from our CiteHR members and those who have tried this PPT, especially EHS members. Keep on sharing.

Thank you.

I tried using the 90-degree position, and frankly, it is not useful. I personally feel that a lesser, 80-degree position is better considering the cars that overtake you or in case you want to switch lanes.

I could not even understand how a company like Ford could have a spelling error in its presentation (zero accidents).

You are 100% right. I had already posted the same, but it did not yield good results, especially in Indian traffic.

I have tried this and am using it as suggested. This does make a big difference. Maybe some NGOs or traffic police should circulate stickers or posters to promote this.
