I propose that Objects in mirror are closer than they appear be redirected here, because its relevant content is covered and supported here. The content unrelated to side mirrors at Objects in mirror are closer than they appear is an arguably unencyclopædic cruft list per WP:IPC. — Scheinwerfermann T· C18:43, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
""Warnings of this nature are not required in Europe, where the proliferation of languages would make it difficult to implement a universally-comprehensible warning""
This is nonsense. Fact is that in Europe laws re. responsibilities are more rational than US. One is not obliged to warn on/about everything. A driver has the responsibility to read the manual and switch on brains when starting the motor of a car. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.154.131.121 ( talk) 18:03, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
""Warnings of this nature are not required in Europe, where the proliferation of languages would make it difficult to implement a universally-comprehensible warning"" This is simply incorrect, as for instance every ingredient list for foods in EU has to be given in the language of the country they are sold in. Keeping it branch-related, cars sold in Sweden will have a label about unleaded petrol printed in Swedish, while it for obvious reasons is written in German in Germany. This means that the burden of proof for inclusion should lay with the claim that languages is the reason. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.225.216.15 ( talk) 03:07, 28 May 2012 (UTC)
""Warnings of this nature are not required in Europe, where the proliferation of languages would make it difficult to implement a universally-comprehensible warning""
I agree this is incorrect but not due to languages. The UN ECE R46 that is in effect in most of the world doesn't require it. This is not European, it is a United Nations document. The only areas that require a warning that I'm aware of are Gulf countries and USA/Canada. Mexico also accepts UN ECE for outer mirror regulation.
