    looking for a name of the movie from the late 50s-early 60s

    it was about cars driving in a canyon and then seeing headlight coming in there lane and they would turn off and crash .
    but what it was was someone had put up a mirror and they were seeing there on headlights .then a guy decided to take it head on and drove thru the mirror and figured it out.
    thanks

    I believe it is Thunder Road starring Robert Mitchum. I remember the scene with the mirror but I don't remember the actors too well.

    I don't think it is legal to sleep when that movie is on the late, late channel.
