The backup camera would supplement your eyes and mirrors.but it also gives a clear view of what is directly behind your trailer which is something your eyes and mirrors can't do. It will also enhance public safety. less risk of backing up and hitting a person or animal walking behind your truck. Ideally, a driver should use a HUMAN ground guide or spotter as much as possible. There are times when a human won't be able to assist you backing. Could you usually ask an customer's employee (such as Walmart) at a customer's dock you help you back up?
Is advanced technology making backing a truck easier?

Sometimes the most important part of backing up is making sure u aint gonna nail something on ur blindside or scrape one them yellow poles with ur steer tire, seems like they always put them #### things right where u need to be. I cant even use a backup camera in a car with any success. I dont want one in my truck nor do i need it. Ive put this spread axle down some narrow little dirt roads and jobsites, no camera needed
