Why are your wing mirrors reflecting the lights of the cars directly behind you? They should be pointed primarily along the outside lines of your vehicle at the lanes to your left and right respectively, so that you can see if a vehicle is occupying the blind spots over your shoulder, and in parallel parking so that you can estimate your distance from the curb. Sounds as if you have adjusted your mirrors either much too far out or much too far in. Unless you are riding a motorcycle, which is a whole different setup. |

In inter-galactic warfare, sometimes it is advantageous to morph the wing design mid flight when hit by the opponents laser beams. This would help possibly deflect some of them back as well. [jurist], there is no mention of cars, this is a universal problem. |

Sorry, [mensmaximus], I thought the Millenium Falcon used computerized proximity sensors which are not susceptible to stray glare rather than visual screens to determine safe clearances above, below, left and right of the craft. |

These exist already, sort of, in the form of mirrors that reduce reflectivity automatically. |
