Bonus points for getting within 1mm of the wall. Getting within 1cm is for beginners.

It’s not too hard to do. Just drive in until you hear a scraping sound, then give it a bit of welly to get it properly nice and close.

They really should have made those old Italian cities more car friendly.

you could even slap on a bit of Delrin or similar plastic to the side of your mirror so you could use it in this way and not destroy it.

Yet another example of shitty 18th century european city planning.

I never got how those worked. Do you just listen for the scraping noise?

Yep, listen for the scraping, then if you hear a crunch, you backhand slap the woman sitting next to you and make her turn 5 extra tricks that day to help pay for the damage.

Yep. They rattle a bit too, so they make plenty of noise.

Well then, they didn’t do it right - or maybe bounced off :)
