Abstract
A display device (display unit) for vehicles has a display element emitting display light. It has a reflecting member (reflecting mirror) for reflecting the display light. It has a drive means for angularly moving the reflecting member at a first speed at ordinary times or at a second speed greater than the first speed. When an ignition switch is turned off, the drive means angularly moves the reflecting member to an angular position where the sunlight is not reflected by the display element and when the ignition switch is turned on, it angularly moves the reflecting member to an original position where the display light is visible at the second speed.
