Default VA Inspection related question

First off I'm not looking for a free inspection or any of that shit. I did a preinspection myself yesterday and everything is good as per what I was told by a guy I know who works at a mechanic shop, I'm just wondering about my passenger mirror. It has a crack down the middle but you can still see out of it, will that cause the truck to fail or not I was told no it won't but I'm just trying to grab a second opinion. Thanks in advance.

Take the mirror off. To pass safety inspections, only two of the three mirrors have to be present.

What picov said. You only have to have the drivers and rear view. But if the passenger side is there no broken glass can be present. So just take it off and you'll be good.

Doesn't necessarily have to have the drivers side. As long as 2/3 are present. Drivers can be missing as long as rearview and passenger mirrors are there. Another thing most stations get picky about now are cloudy headlights.

Thanks everyone, I only failed for suspension I have two bad lower ball joints so looks like it will be a fun filled evening of changing them out.
