I haven't but I am seriously considering. The past few years I have seen a lot of people sway left/right onto the next lane while deeply immersed into their mobile phones. Unfortunately this is often - worryingly often.

Which brings me to think that maybe one of those inconsiderate buffoons may side swipe into the shoulder and hit me.

I installed a wing mirror and it brings some relief.

But again, I may have missed it, but whats wrong with riding against traffic? How does it affect my riding or the the flow of vehicle traffic?
