So you buy a new Toyota near Charlotte and hop into the driver’s seat to pull it out of your driveway for the first time. You put the car into reverse, and bam! All of a sudden the area behind your car is visible to you in your display audio screen. You’re the lucky owner of a new Toyota in N Charlotte with a backup camera! This feature offers you majorly enhanced safety AND convenience, and we’re here to help you figure out how to best utilize it!
Avoid car accidents more easily with a N Charlotte Toyota!
Did you know that 25% of all car accidents have to do with backing up? It can be difficult to see where you’re going, first of all, and driving in reverse isn’t the easiest task in the world no matter the size of your N Charlotte Toyota car. Additionally, sometimes drivers don’t pay a ton of attention when they’re in reverse, which can result in an accident or collision. This is where a backup camera comes in handy!
A backup camera is a small camera integrated into the rear of your car; when in use, it provides you with a clear view of what’s directly behind you. Some of our N Charlotte Toyota vehicles even come with backup cameras that offer gridlines, which can help you gauge distance from objects behind you AND help you back into a parking spot like a pro! Obviously, the backup camera in your new Toyota near Charlotte has a lot of merit; it gives you added visibility, an easy way to see behind you more thoroughly, and assists you in tricky reverse situations. It can help prevent accidents and collisions more easily than if you have to physically turn and watch behind you the entire time, and can also give you visibility that you might not even have with your own eyes if you drive a large vehicle… like a pedestrian or bicycle behind the car!

However, you should NEVER depend entirely on your backup camera when you’re in reverse in your N Charlotte Toyota. You should always turn and look both ways as well; a backup camera won’t give you eyes on the sides of your car, so it’s not a COMPLETE view of what’s behind your new Toyota in N Charlotte. It helps to take a peek yourself so you can really ensure that your path is clear, especially if you’re backing out in a busy street or parking lot!
Did you know that it’s soon going to be mandatory for ALL cars to include an integrated backup camera? Almost all of our 2016 Toyota cars in N Charlotte have them, but we foresee every single Toyota on the lot soon featuring this exceptional safety feature. Why not get a head start and start practicing now?
