Abstract
In an automatically swingable compact rear view mirror carried by a universal pivotal center support within a hood, a drive motor electrically connected to a given remote control equipment for the driver includes an output shaft which extends, on the side opposite to the end opening of said hood which said mirror faces, substantially parallel to the axial direction of a mechanism for moving a universal pivot coupled to the mirror for free swinging of the latter about the center support. Preferably a pair of universal pivots may be provided on the mirror defining a center angle of approximately 90.degree. with respect to the center support.
