I did have a mirror for a while, but I got rid of it because I guess if someone's going to hit me from behind, there's not much I can do about it (maybe I'm wrong?). But I think having a mirror might take my focus away from what's ahead more than I want.
I was hit from behind on a peaceful street so likely I was not monitoring from behind as frequently as otherwise. I'm glad though I did not watch it in my mirror, though maybe could have avoided it. I don't find the mirror distracting, but quite reassuring, and I wear both left and right.
