I understand completely. Like most things they are much easier with a little practice.

Exactly, they are just different to drive. Same as the coach mirrors, when driving a lorry you get used to looking left and right into the mirrors as you are reversing or going forward into a tight area.
In a coach you have to look forwards and upwards, you get used to looking at your bumper when in tight areas and then you look up at your mirrors you can be milimeters from hitting something as you didnt take into account the additional few feet in front that they protrude. It isn’t difficult but it does take some getting used to. Moving forward into tight spaces you tend not to look into your mirrors, difficult to explain but they are easy to hit something when new to them.

I reckon the biggest challenge to me would be coming off something that bends in the middle after all these years, to something that doesn’t. :neutral_face:
