Take The Pledge
As a road safety advocate, Rear View Safety is committed to safe and non-distracted driving. We urge all our customers to please take the pledge to NEVER drive distracted.
Being distracted, even while backing out of your own driveway can have fatal consequences. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration cites an average of 210 fatalities and 15,000 injuries due to back up incidents every year. In an effort to improve backup safety, FMVSS 111 2018 requires all new cars must have back up camera systems, allowing the driver to see a 10-by-20 foot area behind the vehicle from a dashboard display.
Rear View Safety has a wide selection of road safety products designed to keep drivers and those around them safer on the roads.
