AVOID ACCIDENTS WITH AUTO-DIMMING MIRRORS

June 17th, 2020 by

Night driving can be dangerous, and many accidents happen during this time of the day. That said, here at your local dealership we can help you to find ways to stay safer during your night travels. One technology that we recommend for this use is called the auto-dimming mirror. When used properly, it can increase your visual acuity and safety levels.

These mirrors include specialized components that include light sensors, mirrors, microprocessors, and chemically sensitive electrochromic gels. When the sensors get information about incoming light, they relay the intensity levels to the microprocessors. Based on this information, the microprocessors can send specific amounts of voltage through the gel. These voltages cause the gel to darken to specific levels. After this happens, the light that transits this gel also loses intensity, thus preserving your field of vision.

You can test this out for yourself by visiting our dealership and taking one of our new vehicles for a test drive. Contact us today to enjoy your free test drive without delay.
