Is it a requirement to have a side mirror (passenger side) to obtain an inspection sticker in the state of LA.? This is for a passenger vehicle.

From this info, it appears that it is not a requirement, unless my view is obstructed (like a cargo van etc):

B. Every motor vehicle of a type subject to registration in this state, except a motorcycle or motor driven cycle, shall be equipped with an additional mirror mounted either inside the vehicle approximately in the center or outside the vehicle on the right side and so located as to reflect to the driver a view of the highway for a distance of at least two hundred feet to the rear of the vehicle. When the required view from the inside mirror is obstructed, an outside mirror on the right side of the vehicle shall be required.

C. All mirrors required by this section shall be maintained in good condition at all times.

NO.

Only left side is required.

(I've had two cars that came with only one mirror)

As long as it has a rear view mirror as well.

All vehicles are required 2 mirrors.

Driver side mirror and either rear view or passenger side.
