Uses of convex mirror: 

Convex mirrors are mostly used as side glass of vehicles. These mirrors are clamped at the side of the vehicles and drivers can view the vehicles at its rear side so that he can drive safely.Primary importance of convex mirrors is due to its ability to form an erect image though the size of the image is small. Thus viewing area is much more as they are curved towards the outer side. Therefore, as compared to a plane mirror, convex mirrors provide a larger view to the driver.
