A properly adjusted external mirror on the bus shows:

Explanation

Correct answer: A part of the vehicle side and the space behind it corresponding to the vehicle side

A correctly adjusted mirror must show a small fragment of the side of your own vehicle, which serves as a key reference point. This allows the driver to correctly assess the distance and position of other road users in relation to the bus. At the same time, the main part of the mirror should cover the widest possible area to the side of and behind the vehicle, to ensure maximum visibility and minimise the so-called blind spot.
