In a test drive experiment of the short-distance mobility device (electric wheelchair standard) WHILL, young test participants drove the vehicle both with and without side mirrors, and the evaluation data after the test drive under each condition was compared and analyzed. The results revealed that the presence of side mirrors makes driving more comfortable significantly in situations where checking behind is required. Many test participants checked behind them both with the side mirrors and with their eyes when parking.
