I can't talk about driving in Italy without mentioning mirrors--one of the most important pieces of Italian driving equipment. .
Remember the curvy street I showed you a few posts ago? The picture on the left is a shot from the opposite direction, towards the village church. On the front left side of that photo, you'll see a white wall with a small, arched opening (which houses a statue of the Madonna, by the way). To the right of the arch is a pole, and on top of that is a round, curved mirror. It's a bit difficult to see, so I included a close-up of another mirror in the top photo.

These mirrors are great, because if you're entering a road on a blind curve, you can see if another car is coming by looking in the mirror. And if that doesn't work, there's always that statue of the Madonna...
