I don’t understand people who back in places… It’s way easier to back out than it is to back in, even if you don’t have any problem backing in, what is the point?

Safety. It improves visibility when pulling out and with backup cameras you lose no visibility pulling in.

I’ll gladly take that trade every time.

The only way that might not be true is if your vehicle has an insanely large/long nose. If it does you shouldn’t be driving it anyway.

  Why wouldnt a backup camera also provide visibility when backing out? I’ve also never had a problem backing out with just mirrors and windows.

    Backup camera can’t see around the cars on either side of you as well as you can peer around the corners. People also generally have an easier time reacting to things, judging speed and distance etc when looking at it directly, not through a screen.
    
    At the end of the day it’s really just personal preference. I’ll come out and say I back into spots when I’m driving my cool fun car because I think the car looks cooler from the front. When I drive the beater I just do whatever is convenient.
