Correct answer

  • BOfrecer una visión nítida y en tiempo real de la zona situada detrás del vehículo.To give a clear, real-time view of the area behind the vehicle.
Explanation

A reversing camera shows the area behind the vehicle in real time so that you can detect obstacles or people. It is an aid: it does not replace the mirrors or checking directly, and it does not change the 15-metre limit for reversing as part of parking.
