This is my next major purchase in the spring. Maybe not this exact model but I'm definitely getting one with four cameras, front, both sides and rear. http://www.videodashcam.com/dash-cameras/

I've had my passenger side mirror wracked forward a few degrees, I didn't notice it for a few hundred feet I just thought 'that's weird I have to lean back so far to see...." Also had my passenger side nose spot mirror hit but it didn't look obvious, the way I knew was when getting up past 45 miles an hour it would bounce around. The fix?-- Crazy Glue and a short piece of 1/8 aircraft cable with little itty bitty cable clamps-- will take a picture tomorrow.
Drivers side spot mirror was completely broken off one morning. Had to buy a new on and give the tax guy the receipt, whatchugonnado? -
Most of the times my mirrors are usually hit by large cars flying though constructions zones with narrow lanes. Do they stop no. They keep on rolling. Funny thing is how they won't even stop to fix their passenger side mirror. Mirrors are made to take a lickin and keep on kickin. Kinda like super truckers

Once had a truck pass me on the grapevine (Tejon pass I-5) that slapped my drivers side mirror forward against the truck breaking the glass mirror but not the mount. Stopped at the TA down the hill, picked up a standard unheated universal mirror for what then cost about $25.00, the type that bolt on - on each end. Didn't have that type of mount so I wired it on till it could get the correct one. Drove like that a few months.

Shrug my shoulders and get another cup of coffee.
