Rear-View Mirrors


I am astonished at how few drivers actually use their rear-view mirrors.  It would seem that just mastering driving forward has maxed out their capabilities - trying to interpret looking backwards is beyond their skill set.

Why else would someone, no doubt looking for a street name or some such, hold up a whole line of cars as they struggle to find their bearings?  You really don't want to hold up a whole line of cars in New Jersey.  It's simply not good for one's health.

It gets entertaining, actually, when you combine horn honking with the rear-view-mirror challenged - they suddenly look back, rather than forward to see what all the noise is about.  Genius.  And yes, there is often a Taco smear on their lips.
