Come to think about it I think the reason why us americans associate giant SUVs and trucks with safety is because we've gotten so lazy relying on computers and finicky cameras that get covered in mud that I personally feel safer driving my 56 bel air over modern cars because I'm able to physically move my head to see the crap around me not to mention the transmission being a two speed automatic it has a hard time getting to dangerous high speeds but I suppose that doesn't really matter when everyone else is blind quite frankly I would love a car with modern crash safety and handling while still having the ridiculous lack of blind spots that 50s cars had I actually praise the vw golf for having not only a backup camera that doesn't get dirty while not doing that stupid thing where for some reason a lot of auto manufacturers think we have a backup camera lets jack the rear seats so the driver has to use the camera that gets covered in mud or make the rear windshield flat enough to become unusable during winter thank you Volkswagen for not doing that with the golf I can have the backup camera and my physical neck to look behind me
That’s a long sentence.
But there's no period. It's just a wall of text. Maybe they're an ancient Roman?
Holy jesus fuck use some punctuation
Wait until you're older and looking back don't work anymore.
god forbid you look back while you're capable of doing so.
This part of the reason why I love compact and sub compact cars. My little yaris and versa have better visibility then much larger cars. Yes a back up camera is nice is a lot of situations but so is being able to turn around and see stuff.
Backup cameras give no depth perception. I once backed into someone's car while trusting my backup camera. I've never used one since.
