Melissa,
No, Jamie does not turn her body when changing to the left lane. I have taught her to use her mirrors. She does tend to lean forward a little just to make sure it is clear. When she backs up she twists at the waist to look over her right shoulder whereas most of us without a fusion tend to just turn our head.
I think one of the best decisions I made was teaching Jamie to drive in our mini-van that has a ton of blind spots and was very difficult for her to park at times in the beginning. We are now in the process of finding her a car of her own. She wants to wait until she has her own--small--car to take her driving test in and I don't blame her. But like I told her, if you can parallel park my mini-van or her dad's truck, she can park anything!
