Abstract

This paper presents the results of a study directed toward examining the effects of glare resulting from following headlights reflected in rearview mirrors. In particular, the effects of different environments are discussed with regard to their effect on glare. The results of a computer analysis predicting the magnitude of glare reflected from rear-view mirrors for several headlight systems are also presented.
