WTF is wrong with people? AITA? All cars since 2018 have back up cameras. Many other lines of cars have had it since the 2010s. WHY ARE YOU HONKING?

RANT: I SEE YOU! I HAVE A CAMERA! YES, IM LOOKING AT IT AND I HAVEN'T TURNED MY NECK TO SEE YOU!

Why Is that so difficult for people to understand? Even if you don't know models or years I think it's pretty safe to assume if it's a luxury brand there is a backup camera in it. Also, you can SEE the camera if you're not sure if the car backing out has one!

It's just so tiresome When people wave or honk as if I don't see them. I see this scenario EVERYDAY with people honking at a driver in reverse in a parking lot. I have yelled out my window on occasion informing them that I have a backup camera and that nobody was ever in any danger! CHILLAX!!

You're correct.

Give people a break.

You're wrong.

Some other pearls of wisdom...

They are honking at you to not fuck things up, or there is something to your front or side that you may have missed.

You are an imbecile to assume looking at your back camera is good enough when backing up. What about things walking from outside the periphery of the camera? You really think a judge is going to take "It wasn't in the camera when I looked!" as a defence?

Drive properly or not at all, kiddo. Gadgets are good aides, but not substitute's for good driving practice.

It's a 120° camera and side sensors. Not likely.

I got a 2019 and my daughter has a 2022 only way ours works if the car is in reverse. Maybe it’s not you but the other person they are pissed at or like. Ever think maybe there is a problem. Just don’t start a road issues, because people today are totally strange.

I wouldn’t trust anyone backing up, some cars make a beep sound when backing up and they still keep coming back and don’t look at the camera

[NathanDavis]

they won't know for sure if you're one of the many who keep staring at their phone... instead of actually driving... or parking, or backing up...

[LiamJHayden]

You're correct, but there are enough dimwits who just back up without even looking at the backing cameras that maybe the hinkers are just being safe.

A always assume that the driver of the other car is screwing with a cell phone.

You're not supposed to rely on only the camera from what I understand.

Perhaps you were going to hit someone
