Caravan Mirrors

Caravan mirrors: Is the attachment of additional mirrors mandatory?

In principle, the Road Traffic Regulations (StVZO) regulate when the attachment of a caravan mirror is necessary. Under certain conditions, however, wing mirrors must be attached to the caravan, for example, if the caravan is wider than the towing vehicle. In order to guarantee you a clear view, the mirror extensions must be vibration-free and securely attached to the vehicle.
If no additional wing mirror is attached to your motorhome, you will lack rearward visibility and overtaking and lane changes can be really dangerous. Without proper caravan mirrors even when turning right, accidents with cyclists or pedestrians can quickly occur. If you want to drive onto the motorway or take the next exit without fitting an additional mirror you will definitely start sweating, because without universal mirrors you cannot see whether the lane next to you is really free.
Tip: With the right care and cleaning products for caravan mirrors, you will always have an overview.

Universal mirrors for motorhomes: What accessories are available?

When buying a caravan mirror, you not only have numerous brand manufacturers such as Emuk, Haba and Reich to choose from. You can also choose between different models such as pop-up mirrors, universal mirrors or twin packs. The additional caravan mirrors usually have a corresponding bracket that you can attach securely and firmly to the vehicle. Many motorhome mirrors can be clamped or unclamped and are absolutely vibration-free.
However, a good exterior mirror is by no means enough to ensure that you always have a good view. That's why you'll also find the right care and cleaning products for caravan mirrors at Berger Camping. In particular, stubborn pollen dust, blossoms or mud impair the view in the rear-view mirror, which in turn can lead to accidents. If the additional mirrors are properly cleaned, you have the best possible all-round view when driving the motor home and parking the mobile home is also much easier with optimal visibility.
Whether mandatory or not - with a wing mirror for your motorhome you not only see what is happening on the road in front of and next to you, you are safer on the road and arrive accident-free at the campsite or vacation destination.
