Adjusting mirrors while in steady highway traffic is the best way to tune out the blind spots.

It's the people who don't know to do this who merge into you because their mirrors aren't adjusted properly making you invisible to them.

Maybe I'm paranoid about distractions, but my method is to ask one of my kids to walk in a circle around my car while it's parked in the driveway. I'll adjust my mirrors so that the kid is continuously visible, either directly or in a mirror.

This is impractical in cars that don't save driver profiles.
