You need to stick your head out the window and look. It's possible with a camera, but the camera will just make a simple backing situation into a difficult one. A wide view camera creates fisheye distortion. A narrow view camera (without fisheye) wouldn't show enough information.

Exactly. My office is in an older industrial park. It is very tight around here. Drivers need to be able to see what they are doing with their own eyes. They also have to do "blind" back ins to get to certain loading docks. Especially when the weather gets bad, drivers need to be able to see.
