I really wish that, in addition to the camera, they'd include a sort of proximity cone (radar, sonic, something) too. Case in point: Coworker of mine gets himself a Leaf - loves it to death. So, to partake of his joy, we all take a ride with him to Chipotle to grab lunch. Right next door to the restaurant in the strip mall is one of those UPS Pack-n-Ship places. We didn't pay it a lot of attention when we pulled in but right behind us, backed up to the front of the UPS store, is one of their short-length semi-trailers. Not an issue until we're backing out - dude came withing centimeters of smashing out his back window because he was relying on the camera which only showed the legs of the trailer and not the deck. This isn't to say that the cameras aren't good, but they do have limitations and can lend a sense of false security.
