STATE UNIFORM TRAFFIC CONTROL
316.294 Mirrors.—Every vehicle, operated singly or when towing any other
vehicle, shall be equipped with a mirror so located as to reflect to the driver
a view of the highway for a distance of at least 200 feet to the rear of the
motor vehicle. A violation of this section is a noncriminal traffic infraction,
punishable as a nonmoving violation as provided in chapter 318.
History.—s. 1, ch. 71-135; s. 1, ch. 76-31; s. 207, ch. 99-248.
Note.—Former s. 316.273.
Florida
(Most states require rear view and driver's side mirrors)
So why have side mirrors at all?
They are safer than having nothing, required or not? |
Minnesota (my home state) is like this too. I didn't even bother with exterior mirrors. As I've shown here, a wide angle mirror stuck onto the rearview is more than adequate- with a wider field of view than stock.

It's more of a personal choice. Going mirrorless takes a bit of getting used to and may make some people uncomfortable.
