Is the Actros particularly poor for designing the front mirror to not be visible through the swept part of the windscreen? Or are they all like that?
The little Daf I used to drive wasn’t like this.

Think it’s a right hand drive problem. I’ve had this problem in DAF’s and the Volvo FH’s we use currently.

If you notice the wiper arch, you don’t get the dirty blocking that part of the windscreen if the sides are reversed.

How the frec would that make any difference as the mirror would be on the other side :confused:

Same problem on LHD as the wiper sweep is reversed

Ahh mad bad then. It looked like it wasn’t on the German Volvos parked up in the yard this weekend.
