Bike mounted mirrors, sure. I've found them utterly useless. Try one on the helmet or glasses. I wouldn't ride without mine. You can also see more in a 1" mirror 3 inches from your eye than a 4" mirror 2 feet away. And with it right in your field of vision, you don't even have to look to see the cars behind you, once you get used to it, you're just always aware of the cars approaching from behind.
