There are plenty of cars visible on our roads. And the number is continually growing. Although the number of cars grows promptly, the number of accessible parking space grows very slowly. Regularly, if we try to park your car, we have to fit a
car in a very narrow space. It is not unusual that we ned to park back or reverse car into a parking area.

May us as training that ability many times during driving course. Most of us have to present that ability when having the driving test. Personally, I can’t think of that would feel confident and relaxed when reversing car. I also used to have that problem since I can remember. And this always made me feel terribly stressed. In theory, I knew how to do this. Practically, I was really worried that I can hit something or someone with my car. This fear worried me so much that I even started to avoid reverse parking.
The thing that was even more scarry for me was that there is area called “blind area” right behind a car. Have you ever thought about this? That is an field that cannot be seen in your rearview
mirror. Blind area cannot be directly watched from the car if you sit on the driver sit. You have to admit, it's very creepy that you do not see afield directly behind a car. Field that could be essential for parking your car harmlessly.
So, I have conducted my onw
research. I have talked with lots of friends and family members. Many of them have told me to invest in parking sensors. They have told me that they are ultrasonic sensors that would alert me if there is any obstacle behind my car while I park. I need to admit – it is ok. However, I was not sure if I should buy them. Why? I often knew that there was obstacle behind a car. I frequently was aware if it was rather close or still distant. What I needed was something that could give me the exact information about how big is the distance between the back of the car and the thing behind it.
