Yet another mishap: http://www.lotustalk.com/forums/f231/help-someone-reversed-into-my-car-76715/
Ignoring for the moment why anyone would back up in traffic, there are steps to take to avoid this:
Stay back far enough so you can see the driver’s eyes in his interior mirror. If you can’t, he can’t see you.
Note that some SUVs have blind spots of up to 50’!!!
Shade your car to the left, so you at least appear in the o/s mirror.
Keep your finger on the horn button.
Tap the car in front gently to remind him you’re there……oh, wait, maybe not.
Hope this helps. Any additional advice will be appreciated.
