I think I saw the 5th Gear of Top Gear episode where they reviewed the then new M5 and M6. They said the feature was neat but kinda impractical. Something to do with the position of the video distracting from the actual driving.
Still pretty cool technology.

neat application, but damn, i could just see that dulling peoples senses. more driving aids seem to = less skilled drivers.

Got to it before me. They even said it was a usless feature and a waste of money...

Sucks when a bug or rock takes that sensor out.
No one remember the Cadillac with the sensor behind the wreath and a HUD?

I thought some of the caddy's had those? the DTS?
Either way, good application, but I can't imagine starring at that little LCD monitor at night.
More HID for sure :D

Hes the one that didn't see me, I saw him, he used the brakes like at the last second and swerved a little bit, down the block a car was standing double parked, so I decided to ride the wrong way, not just go into the opposite lane at where the car was, I always do that, also some suv behind the dumbass who almost crashed into was flashing his lights like nonstop, maybe that kept me from crashing into him, but seriously, who the hell doesn't see a white car heading their way, therefore hes the dumbass.
back on topic: on that road, everyone should be using the high beams, what kind of an idiot would use the normal beam in pitch black.

But at the end of the day you're still the dumbass on the wrong side of the road.

I cant belive the fucked up logic in your head makes HIM and not YOU a dumbass.
YOU drove with your lights OFF and on the WRONG FUCKING SIDE OF THE ROAD.
and somehow HE is a dumbass for swerving?! Dude, use your fucking head, that is all you buddy. I really wasnt going to say anything but HOW can you be that dense???? It really boggles my mind... :bash:

wow, just wow. I don't think he should be using his head, cuz it's obviously not working. Headlights aren't just to let you see stuff, it also makes your car visible to other drivers. At night, or even dusk, when everyone else has their lights on, it is almost impossible to see cars that don't have their lights on due to the glare of all the other headlights. No doubt about it, YOU were the dumbass in this situation. What if he did hit you, who do you think the cops would say is at fault. "But officer, it wasn't my fault, I was just driving down the wrong side of the street at night without my lights on, it's totally the other guy's fault! I do this all the time, and have never been hit before, so that means its ok. Obviously, this guy doesn't know what to do when encountering someone DRIVING DOWN THE WRONG SIDE OF THE STREET AT NIGHT WITH NO LIGHTS ON."

not to be rude, but i am guessing an all weather shock proof high quality Infa-red system with a widescreen display will run a bit over $400
mjjstang
05-14-2006, 09:42 AM
well certainly you would be correct in that I couldnt get that exact quality for 400 but an infra-red camera costs about 50 bux and a display would be about 150, and then adaptation parts and accessories maybe 50, so hey looky there only about 250 for a setup, now how long it will last, donno, with the non shockproof camera, but its impractical anyway, I have yet to hit any joggers at night, (knocks on wood) and what other features will this help me with? seems like a distraction to me. although It is nice to see all the cool new stuff they can pack into cars, it does get rediculous at times.

I'm sure they have some film or cover to protect the camera, they don't want replace these things every 6 months under warranty. and cadillac has had this availabe for 5 years or so, plus the image is projected onto the bottom of the windshield ala HUD, so it is much easier to use.

Have you ever tried stopping somewhere? In Bronx, I suppose its just like Brooklyn, with bunch of grocery stores and shit, so why not stop at some grocery store, 7-11 and get something to eat, take a little break, or just relax in your car, after 1 hour of driving, then after 10 minutes just drive again, not trying to be an asshole just trying to find ways for you to get your vision back, if that helps then why not do it. :hammer:
