I agree...the CEO's '10 Hyundai Tuck is the first car we have ever had with back up cam; even though it's decent quality, it is a crutch I find myself not fully trusting, and not really providing for the standard look/check and, common sense.
Everyone likes 'tech'; few of the tech gizmos are life savers in the sense that the 'cost' and added complexity prevents the ubiquitous idiots from relying on that 'tech'. Human nature, lack of awareness, multi-tasking, and just plain stupid cannot be covered by, or compensated for, by 'tech', imo.
