Reversing Assistance

[Humphrey106]

I have the Nextbase 522GW and have also purchased the rear window dash cam. When they are both connected and I have been fiddling with the menu on the 522GW I noticed under the Drivers assistance there is a reverse mode. I turned this on but I can't tell what it does. I thought it might be that when I touch the screen of the 522gw the rear camera displays as the main picture (instead of the front facing camera) however I can still do that even when the reverse mode is turned off.

As above if you press the Drivers Assistance mode it basically just enlarges the rear view to the whole screen. Nice little touch imo but I wouldn't personally trust reversing by just looking at that.

That's why it's called Driver Assistance. I think that you are supposed to look out of the window as well. Preferably the rear one.

Often wondered which window to look out of when reversing, thanks for clearing that up. [emoji23] [emoji23]

But guarantee you'll get people just look at it through the camera without actually looking as well. You know what some people are like.. [emoji848][emoji849]

Sure it will happen, you know what some folk are like [emoji849], almost as bad as those that use their reg plate as their display name on a forum.. [emoji6]

What's the arrow pointing at? A number plate flipper?

no, that's the external waterproof camera we do next to a regular reverse camera, was a previous pic I took where someone asked about the external camera which is why it has the arrow

The oddly shaped rear WP camera, but it works.

PS: The price here for your own set plates are 1450 USD and really they are just yours for 8 years then you have to pay 1450 USD again for another 8 years, where as a set of regular plates with a random number are 177 USD for the life of your vehicle

You see now how individuality here in Denmark are frowned upon by the socialist regime, and anyone transgressing this will be ripped off in the most shameful degree.
O sweet lotto gods please take pity on me soon

Different plates have different prices here, I don't pay for mine but some are $450 per year, just a price gouge from the government

well i would still feel free and die happy in AU, cuz for a great many years after my arrival i would feel like a newcomer with little right to complain, and before i get that far i will probably have folded and become part of history.
But up here i feel like i have nothing but things to complain about, and its my right / duty to do just that, just take such a toll on me i feel,
