The mirrors are so positioned to eliminate any blind spots along the boundaries of the vehicle while enhancing the lines of sight therealong, particularly for objects along the front and rear of the vehicle. The mirrors associated with these latter zones are positioned so as to be adjacent the driver to preclude obstruction by packages stacked in the vehicle.
