As for seeing bicycles when making a left turn it is easier for both to see each other whereas when making a right turn it is difficult for a bike to see you without a rear view mirror.

Of course you don't just use your rear view mirror to look for bicyclists, you are supposed to use your passenger side mirror as well and that gives you a better view. When I come up the ramp from the northbound Bronx River Parkway onto the westbound Cross County Parkway in Yonkers, there is a heavy dual merge (one from southbound BRP, and another from Kimball Ave entrance) to my right, I always use my passenger side mirror. Based on your driving protocol, would you use your rear view mirror to look for oncoming traffic from two entrance ramps spaced 15 feet apart?
