    Install a front wide angle camera

    I have a 2016 Passat, is it possible to install a front wide angle camera?

    The reason I ask is that as I was slowly pulling out of a car park where visibility was very limited because of suvs and cars etc parked on the side of the road that I nearly got hit by two boy racers in their lowered hilux trucks.

    Nothing that wide and why look at a camera screen instead of out the windscreen. That sort of thing has been a problem for generations and caution is the only way. "Sorry Officer I was looking at my camera screen and he looked further away so I pulled out, Oh heres the tow truck now" LOL

    Secondly if that particular place is such a problem perhaps talk to the council who may remove a park on the right side to give better visibility as there is minimum distances for ends of parks in relation to entrances.
