Description of the problem | In my vehicle, i have a backup camera and i'm thankful for it but also i strongly wish that vehicle had that backup sensor system as well with the increasing beeping sound as the vehicle gets closer to an object. Vehicles really need to be equipped with both the camera and backup sensors in combination to be safe. I had a small accident backing up even though i had the camera because my eyes are moving back-and-forth as i'm a maneuvering the car backwards so that i as well do not hit an object on the side. Thanks you for considering my request, from my personal experience i know that it will save lives and injuries. |
