I've heard it said that "Mirrors" have the power to deceive. I must admit that this can be true, but the opposite can also be true. How many of us rely on what our mirrors tell us about ourselves each and every day before we can even leave the house? Or maybe what the mirror says about whether or not to back out of the driveway? Mirrors are made to show us things that our naked eye can't see. Designed to aide us as to what is there and what is not there. As far as forklifts go, has anyone considered the fact that to drive in reverse while sitting in a chair that faces the opposite direction, limits a drivers view to the point of having to rely on his/ her peripheral vision which can be deceiving as well. Not to mention the fact that putting himself in an uncomfortable and, to say the least, akward position can limit his view by as much as 50% of the roadway he's traveling on. Sure you can see all of one side, but you can see none of the other! Is there another lift coming from behind??????? Who knows? But if you are using two mirrors the way they were meant to be used , then you can see both sides and sit comfortably! Ya know?
