The high seating position has pros and cons but there have been a couple close calls since I've started driving a SUV. I used to do things old school when reversing and turn my whole upper body to look out the rear window but it's next to useless in my car. Now I have a wide angle rear camera right above the license plate that has saved me a couple times from hitting my neighbor and her stroller.

I truly believe in urban environments it would be useful to have a wide angle front cam - even just for intersections and crosswalks when stopped.
