This paper presents the quantification of Field of View of external Rear View Mirror in automobiles. The decision based on available Field of View and the blind zone for lane changing is one of the major factors in road accident. This study presents a preliminary study of quantifying field of view of rear view mirror in automotive vehicles. A simple method of estimating the Field of View is shown and also a passive method of increasing the Field of View is discussed. The proposed method helps the designers and road users to choose the mirror of right size to provide extra field of view beyond the regulatory requirements.
