Most of the newest cars have a “Reversing Sensor” that warns the driver before the rear bumper actually comes into contact with something.
Most people probably think that this valuable feature came out of the minds of electronic engineers, but it was recently disclosed that the concept was first discovered and used successfully by a Chinese farmer. His invention was simple and effective. Scroll down to see an illustration of his Reverse Sensor. His discovery was that it reliably remitted a high-pitched squealing sound when the vehicle backed into something. Last edited by Craig@AUDI; 05-11-2015 at 05:59 PM. |

Is there a secret to reversing a modern car with a high boot? It nearly impossible to judge the distance behind a BA sedan, whilst AU and earlier are a breeze. Is there a certain trick or gift to being able to confidently reverse park these modern high boot cars?
