A vehicular driver monitoring system includes a camera disposed within a vehicle and having a field of view interior of the vehicle, and an adjustable mirror disposed within the vehicle. The adjustable mirror includes a mirror reflector that reflects light incident thereat. The camera views the adjustable mirror and captures image data based on light reflected by the mirror reflector of the adjustable mirror toward the camera. With a driver of the vehicle sitting in a driver seat of the vehicle, light reflected off a portion of the driver is reflected by the mirror reflector of the adjustable mirror toward the camera. An electronic control unit (ECU), responsive to processing by an image processor of image data captured by the camera, adjusts the adjustable mirror to reflect the portion of the driver toward a region of the lens of the camera.
