Erm, being a driving instructor, I must say I teach the pupils to 'look in the direction of travel'..... ie when reversing, look through the rear window, anything else (mirrors, side windows etc) is purely an 'observation'.....
You wouldnt go forward whilst only checking in the mirrors now would you :)
But to be fair, the Corsa driver shouldnt have been so close either and I also teach the pupils to understand where they need to be to be seen by 'larger vehicles' in front, ie in their mirror view.... and always make sure they are not in the drivers blind spot
Sorry it happened :( It just means you need to go out in the mud to releive yourself of frustrations...... Hope it comes back soon

I reversed up a Honda Civic at work - rather embarassing as it was one of my employees cars :(

About 10 years ago a work mate of mine had a Honda Civic and our employer met him on the road up to our site. He was travelling too fast and failed to stop in time and ended up parked on the Civic with the front wheels of his Disco on the windscreen. :shock:

I remember being in devon and an artic timber lorry reversed into us on narrow road trying to let another artic through. It went to dispute and the insurance basicly said he was to blame as there was big traffic jam behind us anyway(besides we had clear view of both his mirrors so no excues)
It was a rental Corsa and did about £1500 damage but was still driveable fortunatly

Sympathise as I done that a couple of times when I got a Maverick many years ago.
Those big fresnel screens are the best solution.
About a fiver from your local motor factors.
