I prefer not to stop entirely, and cross the road perpendicularly. I find that crossing to the other side of the road can be dangerous since I can't fully see behind me while riding forwards, to see if cars are coming.
This is probably the most dangerous part of my ride, maybe I have a stiff neck, or maybe I am not a great rider, but turning my head almost 180* while riding forwards is unstable for me.

Does anyone mount a mirror on their bike to see behind them?
Or do you prefer one mounted to your helmet?

Something like this?

Always used to use a mirror on the end of my handlbar. More recently switched over to the "Take a Look" mirror listed at #6 on your Amazon list. Really liked that one (very easy to move the head slightly to see wherever you want to) and ended up taking the mirror off my bike.
