OK who is with me on this one? In my opinion, the Government should make it compulsary for all new drivers to go through a Defensive Driving Course suplimented by the government prior to moving to the next stage of their licence process. With luck this should eliminate some stupid accidents occuring on our roads as of late.

How true ! I don't like the side mirrors on the new cars. You can't adjust them at all.
Certainly not in the 2013 built Holden Barinas. The mirror itself is fixed, no movement at all. The whole thing will fold inwards so you can walk past it without the risk of damage if you bump it as you are waiting past. You don't just have a blind spot because of the car structure - not such a problem in old cars, you have the problem of non adjustalbe exterior mirrors..
