A sun visor is a piece of equipment in a vehicle that helps block sunlight from shining directly into the driver's or passengers' eyes. It is typically mounted on the ceiling above the windshield and can be adjusted to different angles to provide shade. Sun visors help improve visibility and reduce glare, making driving more comfortable, especially on sunny days.
