Motorists are aware their rear-view mirror keeps them safe – but on a sunny day, glare could actually put them at risk.

Or, if a car travelling behind you at night had their headlights on full beam it could be a major distraction.

Content creator, Coach B, showed her followers how to prevent a potential accident.

As she pressed down on a small button below the mirror, she said: “Me flipping the rear-view mirror tab so the headlights don’t blind me.”

In the comments, the amazed driver confessed she only discovered the trusty feature about three weeks ago thanks to her boyfriend.

But, she wasn’t alone, one viewer penned: “Never knew that’s what that little tab thing is for.”

Another admitted: “I didn’t know about this either until a few weeks ago and my life has been changed ever since.”

“I just learned this last month, I was moving my mirror all these years”, shared a third.

A fourth wrote: “I didn’t know about this until a few weeks ago and man, my eyes are forever grateful.”

This comes as other unknown car tips and tricks are being discovered.

And, some drivers have only just realised a little-known feature they must check to make their car last longer.

An expert has revealed one vital motor part that should be changed regularly – and it’s not what you might expect.

Plus, motorists have been left stunned after realising that they have a nifty device hidden in their cars – and it’s very easy to use.

While you might think you know your car like the back of your hand, you could be missing out on some essential extras.

Meanwhile, another mechanic has revealed the mistake drivers always make with their air conditioning that leaves them hotter and wastes fuel.
