Why do objects in mirror have to be closer than they appear? Why can't it just be a normal fucking mirror so I know where things are, amirite?

Try turning your head away from the mirror and find it yourself.

They make them either concave or convex (I can't remember which one) so that you can see more. If you had a regular mirror on a car, your range of vision would be of little to no help.
