Why is it so hard to use one's mirrors or, gasp, look over one's shoulder? Seeing that millions of drivers around the world have somehow managed to do something as elementary as back up--without a camera--this is apparently not a difficult skill to master. IMHO, if a vehicle needs a camera to back up, maybe the vehicles are too big, or badly designed.
And how have we all survived without lane change warning systems and those truly ridiculous parallel parking options? If someone can't back up, park or change lanes without an electronic nanny maybe they shouldn't be driving to begin with.
Next, the built-in GPS systems so many directionally challenged people feel are essential will be linked to the car's ECU to control the speed the car is allowed to go, based on speed limits at the car's location.
Just sayin.'
