Can you use the mirrors too much? I wouldn't have thought so personally. Also, if you are aware of the fact that you don't do enough lifesavers, why not get into the habit of doing more of them?
You are correct on mirror use, but you become lax and totaly relyant on them (like car drivers). I do give myself a kick everytime i notice that i forget lifesavers, which are not often. Not to say i turn without looking at all.
Er, what?

Yes you can use your mirrors too much. I can't say many car drivers do though - lots don't bother at all, so no idea where you get that impression from.

Also, if the first thing you know about someone being along side you is when you're doing life savers, then you're not using your mirrors correctly.

derail the thread why dont you.

Back to the point. You cant be perfect from the start, as thor said there is a balance that has to be struck. I am still to find that.
