Comment on Why? There is enough space on the parking lot

Lots of people are bad at parking. It can be a little difficult to judge distance so people go until they bump something. I think having cameras around the vehicle would help, if people use them, that is.

Last time I used my backup camera, I misjudged the distance and hit someone. Never again.

Cameras should be used in conjunction with your mirrors, not exclusively. It makes more sense to me to learn to use safety features rather than ignore them.

Neither cameras or mirrors give you the depth perception you need.

Which is why you use them together to give you the best shot you can have.

Newer backup cameras have lines to warn you of the distance, but you still have to be careful just like with mirrors.

And beepers, and distance measurements, and a thing that lights up and says ‘STOP’.
Well, few have all 3 but in general you’ll get 1 or 2.
It’s a lot easier to park than it was 10 years ago, but you wouldn’t know it seeing pictures like this .
