Is it true that blind spots are eliminated if you have one outside mirror on each side of the vehicle?

No, blind spots cannot be eliminated entirely by having one outside mirror on each side of the vehicle. Blind spots, also called "no-zones", are areas around a vehicle that cannot be directly observed by the driver using the standard mirrors. These areas remain even with the addition of side mirrors. To minimize the risk associated with blind spots, drivers must rely on a combination of mirrors, proper head positioning, and turning their heads to check for other vehicles, pedestrians, or obstacles.
