A glare reducing mirror assembly for reducing glare for a driver of a vehicle includes a housing that is attached to an outside of a vehicle. A mirror is movably coupled to the housing to reflect light and the mirror is comprised of an electrochromic glass. A dimming unit is coupled to the housing to detect an intensity of light striking the mirror. The dimming unit is electrically coupled to the mirror and the dimming unit selectively adjusts an intensity of light being reflected by the mirror. In this way the dimming unit reduces glare for the driver.
