And that's where I'd come back around and say that you're underestimating how much attention off the road 'a quick glance every 3 seconds' takes. Yeah, one quick glance every once in a while isn't a big deal, but if you're worrying about it every 2-3 seconds you're distracting yourself. What are you actually looking for? How many actionable dangers can there be behind you?

I don't think anyone worries about it every 2-3 seconds after learning for more than a few weeks. They just naturally do it. It's second nature.

What is going on in my rear view mirror that I need to be aware of? Maybe I'd check it more on the highway to see if someone is about to pass me or something but I feel like I'm only looking in the rear view mirror if I need to change lanes.

Even on a 2 lane road it is still good to know how close someone is behind you, if someone is on your bumper you better not slam on your brakes if you don't want to be rearended.

Sure if you are in a neigherbood going 30 it's not as a big a deal, but it's always useful.
