Mirrors on roads

We don't allow mirrors for driveways or any other reason on the public highway, and take down any we find.

Whilst a mirror may assist with egress from your property, a mirror is legally an obstruction on the highway.

If you don't have good visibility from your driveway, we recommend you look at what you can do to improve sight lines. Possible measures include cutting back vegetation, moving fences, or widening gateways.
