            (a)      the mirror projects no more than 150 mm beyond the vertical longitudinal plane passing through the point from which 'Overall Width' is measured on that side; or
            (b)      both of the following criteria are satisfied:
               (i)        the mirror is capable of folding to project no more than 150 mm beyond the vertical longitudinal plane passing through the point from which 'Overall Width' is measured on that side; and
               (ii)      when the vehicle is under a load corresponding to its 'Gross Vehicle Mass', all the parts of the unfolded mirror and its attachments which are less than 2 m from the ground (if any), project no more than:
                 -         1,490 mm beyond the longitudinal median plane of the vehicle; and
                 -         240 mm beyond the vertical longitudinal plane passing through the point from which 'Overall Width' is measured on that side.
