Part of defensive driving is constant situational awareness. My eyes are constantly scanning all 3 mirrors so I usually have a good idea who is beside and behind me. Situational awareness is another reason that I did not want Navigation in my car and even though my phone is Bluetooth linked, when I get a call the response is usually "I'm in my car, I'll call ya back when I can". I do not like distractions while driving. The jokers who have a bunch of feathers and beads and crap hanging from their rear view mirrors and stuffed animals on their rear decks and a 32 oz. Big Gulp in their cup holders who think their cockpit is their living room are the drivers that I avoid.
