Fine, you want one, then find a car with one, don’t force everyone else to have to buy one.
If been driving for some 35 years without backing into anything. When I learned to drive, awareness was hammered into me and I won’t move till I know exactly what’s going on all around me.
In my opinion all this so called safety equipment is just making worse drivers.
So would you be opposed to regulations that would require car manufacturers to install any safety device at all?
How about regulations requiring certain braking systems on 18,000 pound trucks?
How about regulations making sure that canned goods are treated in such a way as to prevent botulism?
How about regulations that would make it difficult for China to import their poisoned food products.
Most federal regulations are stupid and intrusive, however regulations that are designed to insure the safety of the general public are a legitimate federal function. The back up camera is a regulation that is designed to protect other people from your negligence or to protect you from theirs. It is no different that a requirement for side mirrors on trucks or back up warning lights.
I almost got run over yesterday by some idiot that tried backing up without looking while I was walking behind him. His back up lights came on right before he gunned the engine and I was able to jump out of the way. If I was a little kid, I’d be dead.
