Welcome on the forum.

I am sure there will be a spec with respect to what you have to see in the mirrors on both sides. The UK laws make it clear you have to see at least a 4m wide area at a distance of 20m from the point of the mirrors.

There may be no blind spot like a bicycle or the like as per the left hand side in this picture.

Ek het so n cover om my rearview vir dieselfde rede. As die son so skuins op die kameratjie skyn, sien jy maar sleg. In elk geval dit doen met spieëls ook.

B V ...welkom oppie forum. Gesels saam en as jy iets nodig het, vra. Soos jy sal agterkom , hiers baie kennis oppie forum opgesluit in die lede se koppe en hulle help graag.

Soos ek dit sien gaan jy steeds i blinde kol langs die wa he as jy nie spieels gebruik nie. Gestel i fietsryer ry teen jou wa in die dorp. Blinde kolle is een v d groot redes vir kleiner ongelukke.

Ek loer nog steeds in die Jeep se kant spieëls. Die kamera agter is soos spieël in die middel voor by die dash.
Hou maar aldrie dop soos met gewone ry.

Stem saam of jy nou met ekstra karavaan spieels sleep  of nie die blinde kol van uit jou voertuig sal altyd  net regs en links oor jou skouers wees. Dit is 'n gegewe.

Volgens my kennis moet alle voertuie na 'n sekere jaar vervaardiging linker en regte spieels hê. Dus sal dit geld vir die sleep van S/waens en karavane ook.

Tru kamera maak dit net makliker.

My Sensation Maia is brieër as die gewone Jurgens reeks. Maar tenspyte van dit, kan ek 'n voertuig in my Ranger se kant spieel  waarneem lank reeds voordat dit uit die sig veld van die kamera verdwyn.

Maar die blinde kol net oor welke skouer sal altyd steeds daar wees.

Could some one please tell me what is the correct tyre pressure on my Gypsey Raven caravan. The tyre size are 185R14C dunlop S.P. Would this be the same at the cost and on the highveld. I have just started caravaning.

Brian I would use a min of 280kPa and up to 300kPa. The max pressure is printed on the tyre and could be up to 450kPa as you have commercial vehicle tyres.

Also the same pressure at the coast or inland.
