Limited Neck Mobility

Due to a neck condition, I am unable to see traffic approaching from my left as I pull out of my driveway. Is there a remedy for this? I am unable to turn my head fully to my left and unable to see cars coming from my left.

Although AAA does not recommend any specific devices, some drivers with limited neck mobility have found that different or additional mirrors can help. A convex inside rear view mirror, and/or supplemental mirrors can be added to the side mirrors to increase visibility.
